Snake

A screenshot of Snake

Inspiration

Childhood days.

What it does

Allows you to move around a snake and eat apples while trying to avoid the borders of the screen.

How we built it

Java and teamwork.

Challenges we ran into

The apples kept disappearing and we had issues with the collisions with the edge of the frame. Also getting the snake to move was difficult and we had to teach ourselves Java swing methods.

Accomplishments that we're proud of

None of us have had any experience working with moving objects or events in Java. This has been a massive learning experience for all of us and really pushed us to go out of the box with our learning.

What we learned

Java swing, making a game, events, JFrame, JPanel, fonts and much more!

What's next for Snake

Adding a counter, and adding levels of difficulty options i.e. easy, medium and hard. We would have wished to add a game over function that allows you to restart the game as well.
