Description

This is my attempt at a clean snake game. The highest level has some blinking, so beware if you are at risk for seizures...

Changes

1. Added score tracker 2. Added increasing speeds as you increase in size 3. Added animations as you increase in size to add an element of difficulty. 4. Added a 'draw' mode so that my young children could play without the ability to die. The highest level has a lot of blinking, so play at your own risk if you are at risk for seizures...

josmiley: Thank you for your input! I will make those changes to make it compatible with 3.0! Also, once you reach certain levels the images for the sprites go into animation mode, and I plan on experimenting with different images to make the snake look better. However, you are definitely right about using fill and just rect surfaces being a better option if I plan on keeping them just colored squares. I really appreciate you taking the time to check it out and comment! Thanks for your help!

oops ... snake.pyw, line 69 : for block in range(length):

make some change to run under py3 ... sfuncs.py, line 255 : for tile_y in range(0, master_height // h): sfuncs.py, line 259 : for tile_x in range(0, master_width // w): snake.pyw, line 69 : for block in xrange(length): it is well done but I think the use of "Sprite" was useless because you used squares, "fill" might be more appropriate which would have reduced the code. good job.

I added score keeping and level increases to raise per-eat-tail-length and speed.
