Inspiration
This project was inspired by my desire to build my first working game and understand how real web projects function. I chose the classic Snake game because it is simple, logic-based, and perfect for learning JavaScript fundamentals.
What it does
The game allows the player to control a snake using keyboard keys. The snake grows when it eats food, and the game ends when it hits the wall or itself. The score increases as the snake grows.
How I built it
I built this project using:
* HTML to create the game structure
* CSS to design the board and basic visuals
* JavaScript to handle movement, collisions, scoring, and game logic
Challenges I ran into
As a beginner, the main challenges were:
* Understanding JavaScript logic for movement and collision detection
* Debugging small errors that broke the game
* Designing the layout properly using CSS
Accomplishments that I'm proud of
Building my first working game and successfully implementing core game logic using JavaScript.
What I learned
Through this project, I learned:
* How HTML, CSS, and JavaScript work together
* Basics of game logic and event handling
* Debugging and problem-solving
* How to upload and manage a project on GitHub
What's next for Snake Game
* Improve visual design and responsiveness
* Add difficulty levels with increasing speed
* Include restart and pause functionality
* Add sound effects and simple animations
* Make the game mobile-friendly
