snake-sfml

This is a simple Snake clone using SFML and C++. This is my first project learning the integration of code and GUI's.

Learning some SFML

After taking a few CS classes, I wanted to take my skills beyond terminal interaction and came across the SFML2 library. This project is my first attempt at recreating Snake, using header/implementation files, and using a multimedia library. I created the images used.

I'm happy with the results, but the game still needs a few things.

Pending updates

Some things I'd like to implement to polish the program up a bit:

• A simple menu ( working with the mouse )
• Proper end screen
• Pausing
• Correcting the apple's flickering when updating the window

Controls

Movements relies on arrow keys only.
Pause the game by pressing 'P'
There are no walls, the snake loops around.
Quit by pressing 'Q' or clicking the exit icon.
If you lose the game, the window terminates immediately.

Tools used

• SFML2.5.1 ( 32 - bit ) for Mingw
• VS Code
• Terminal
