Snake
The classic Snake game for Tactility.
Overview
Snake is a faithful implementation of the classic arcade game where you control a snake that grows longer as it eats food. Navigate carefully to avoid hitting walls or your own tail!
Features
- Four Difficulty Levels: Easy, Medium, Hard, and Hell - with wall collision toggle for the ultimate challenge.
- Multiple Input Methods: Touch gestures and keyboard support.
- Visual Feedback: Color-coded snake head and body with smooth movement.
- Score Tracking: Real-time score display with game over detection.
- High Score Persistence: Saves best scores for each difficulty level.
- Progressive Speed: Game speeds up as your snake grows longer.
- Responsive UI: Automatically adapts grid size to available screen space.
- Non-Square Grids: Takes advantage of the full display area.

Requirements
- Tactility
- Touchscreen or keyboard
Usage
- Launch the Snake app.
- Optionally select "How to Play" to learn the controls.
- Select your preferred difficulty (Easy, Medium, Hard, or Hell).
- Control the snake to eat food and grow longer.
- Avoid hitting yourself (and walls in Hell mode)!
- Game ends when you collide - try to get the highest score!
Controls
- Touchscreen: Swipe up, down, left, or right to change direction.
- Keyboard (Arrow Keys): Use arrow keys (Up, Down, Left, Right) for movement.
- Keyboard (WASD): Use W, A, S, D keys for movement.
- Keyboard (Cardputer): Use semicolon (;), comma (,), period (.), slash (/) for up, left, down, right.
Game Rules
- Snake starts in the center moving right.
- Eat food (red dot) to grow longer and increase score.
- Each food eaten adds one segment to your snake.
- Cannot reverse direction (no 180-degree turns).
- In Easy/Medium/Hard: Snake wraps around screen edges.
- In Hell mode: Hitting walls = instant death!
- Fill the entire grid to win (if you're that good)!
Difficulty Levels
- Easy: Large cells (16px) - fewer cells, slower pace, wrap-around walls.
- Medium: Medium cells (12px) - balanced challenge, wrap-around walls.
- Hard: Small cells (8px) - many cells, requires quick reflexes, wrap-around walls.
- Hell: Small cells (8px) + wall collision - hitting walls means game over!
