Snake Game

This repository contains a simple implementation of the classic Snake game using C++ and OpenGL. The game provides a grid-based environment where the player controls a snake, guiding it to eat food and grow in length while avoiding collisions with the boundaries and its own body.

Features

• Grid-based environment with customizable size
• Snake movement in four directions: up, down, left, and right
• Randomly generated food on the grid
• Collision detection with boundaries and self
• Increasing snake length upon eating food

Prerequisites

To run the Snake game, you need to have the following installed:

• C++ compiler
• OpenGL library
• GLUT library

Usage

1. Clone the repository:

   git clone https://github.com/your-username/snake-game.git

2. Compile the code using your C++ compiler:

   g++ -o snake-game snake.cpp -lGL -lGLU -lglut

3. Run the executable:

   ./snake-game

4. Play the game:

   • Use the arrow keys to control the snake's movement.
   • Guide the snake to eat the food and avoid collisions with the boundaries and its own body.
   • The game ends when the snake collides with a boundary or itself.
