Snake

Overview

This Snake game is a classic arcade game implemented in C using the SDL library. The player controls a snake, guiding it to eat food while avoiding collisions with the game area boundaries and itself. Each time the snake eats food, it grows in length. The game continues until the snake collides with the boundary or itself.
