Simple 2-player snake game

Game made with a piston engine.

Note: It's really hard to capture a fun animation when playing solo a two-player game.

About

This was done as an educational challenge as a one-day hackathon. After watching this video, which sets up the coding ground for the basic snake game.

I wish I had more time to implement multiple gamestates (like MainMenu, ScoreScreen...), but it is what it is.

Enjoy!

Movement

• Red player: arrow keys
• Blue player: WASD keys

Every melon consumed lengthens the snake.

• How to win: Avoid losing!
• How to lose: Hit the enemy snake!
• How to make peace: Frontal collision with the other snake (ain't these snakes peculiar creatures...)

General strategy:

• The bigger your snake becomes, the higher the chance your opponent will not be able to avoid your elooongated snake body.

How to run

$ cargo run    # Should do the trick (from the repo root directory)
