Snake Game

This is a simple terminal snake game written in Golang.

How it works?

It used termbox for Event Management and plotting 2D slices. First of all, it reads levels.txt and imports the levels. Levels separated with a newline.'#' means wall, 'x' means the position of the snake, and ' ' means floor. It then converts the selected level into a 2D slice. Next, it fills each cell of the terminal screen with one of the array cells. The page refreshes with each event.

Timeline

It took four days

• First day: A trip into the termbox and other frameworks and examples and implement the main.go page. Read the Idiomatic Go guide. (2h:45m)
• Second day: Implement a basic version without any other options. (3h)
• Third day: Add other options and finish the project. (1h:30m)
• Forth day: Packaging, minor changes, fix bugs, test the exceptions, remove spaces, comments, writing the README file, and upload. (1h)
