#Snake written in Haskell

#Cool features

• Command line arguments: alter the dimensions, the seed & ASCII style
• Pausing / resuming ('p')
• Replaying your last game ('r')
• High scores (for given window sizes)
• Seeding
• Speed up with Spacebar
• Speeding up when you eat fruit

#How to run

• Make sure you've got stack installed. Then:

git clone https://github.com/will-clarke/snake-haskell
cd snake-haskell
stack run

#Dev TODOs:

• [ ] backwards mode: keys do the opposite of what you expect (/ something totally random)
• [ ] make snake head a different colour
• [ ] high scores stored on a server somewhere?????
• [ ] changing background colours depending on the level ----- DO WE EVEN WANT THIS?
• [ ] Find out how to get screen dimensions from Brick. This could be tricky / monad-y
• [ ] parsing -- some DSL for styling / add a map
• [x] only change dimensions with command line arguments
• [x] Make the game faster as you eat more fruit
• [x] show high scores
• [x] update high scores
• [x] Make sure all record-syntax functions are sytematically named (eg. "getSomething")
• [x] high scores stored locally?
• [x] start snake in the middle
• [x] Start snake moving left to right or something
• [x] implement pausing / resuming on screen blur / focus
• [x] make it so you can't move further from the boundary
• [x] add an endgame screen
• [x] add a pre-game screen
• [x] Make head of snake a different colour
• [x] (related to below): allow command line args to toggle between simple / complex graphics
• [x] Add attributes to make it pretty
• [x] Colour in the snake
• [x] Colour in the Food
• [x] Actually make pretty attributes pretty
• [x] move stdgen into food
• [x] rename model
• [x] remove keypress
• [x] Don't allow snakes to turn on 180 degrees
• [x] Reseed food after it's eaten
• [x] Allow Food to be eatable
• [x] Make food increment the score
• [x] command line -- pass in initial seed. Optparse-applicative. Maybe different game modes (eg. just left-right)

Next projects ideas:

• Parse "One hundred and twenty eight" into 128
• Parse cron
• Invent regular expression language
• Invent L-System turtle thing
