I believe, this picture snakes speaks for itself.

Purpose

The purpose of this project was at first to practice C++ OOP and GLUT, but eventually it became a severe challenge of fixing bad code: linkage, compilation, runtime errors, - and all the fun relevant to these processes. It has been a long time since the initial release, but the goal of debugging was only brought to achievement recently.

Features

  • 1 snake
  • 5 routing modes (4 simple AIs)
  • 5 aiming modes
  • Walls
  • Fruits
  • 8 sets of icons.
  • Pause (freezes the game)
  • Safe mode (makes the best AI move when the current player about to crash)
  • Running mode (moves only when a button is pressed)
  • Adjustable delay between iterations (keyboard io)
  • Adjustable number of fruits (keyboard nm)
  • Adjustable field dimensions (args)
  • Has fixes for unobvious bugs
  • Has obvious bugs unfixed

Possible improvements

  • Option to make AI follow the cursor
  • Read walls from file
  • Mice (running fruits)
  • More snakes
  • Better snake AIs (for example, one planning to target the best cluster of fruits)
  • Remote intelligence

Contribution

Feel free to submit a pull request or an issue to inform about a bug / error.
