Features

• Classic snake gameplay
• Simple and intuitive controls
• Automatically restarts after game over
• Score tracking

Prerequisites

• Python 3.x

Installation

1. Clone the repository

git clone https://github.com/nayanatara07/Python-Snake-Game.git
cd snake-game

2. Run the game

python main.py

How to Play

• Controls:

  • Use the arrow keys to change the direction of the snake:
    • Left Arrow: Move Left
    • Right Arrow: Move Right
    • Up Arrow: Move Up
    • Down Arrow: Move Down

• Objective:

  • Navigate the snake to eat the red food that appears randomly on the screen. Each time the snake eats the food, it grows in length, and the score increases by one.
  • Avoid colliding with the walls or the snake's own body. If a collision occurs, the game is over, and it will automatically restart after a short delay.

• Food: Class representing the food with methods to initialize and place it randomly on the canvas.
• next_turn(snake, food): Handles the game's logic for each turn, including moving the snake, checking for collisions, and updating the score.
• change_direction(new_direction): Changes the direction of the snake based on user input.
• check_collisions(snake): Checks if the snake has collided with the walls or itself.
