Using the [Ebitengine](https://ebitengine.org/), I made a very ugly and simple snake game, mostly to learn a bit more
|
|
about how game programming works, dip my toes a little bit. You can find [the code here](https://git.bricebernard.dev/Mimu/snake-game).

I did this purely to see how it feels to write a game loop. That's why there is only one level, randoming a constant
|
|
amount of points to eat. The gif above is basically the entire game.
|
|
|
|
The only addition is pressing the `spacebar` to go at maximum speed.
|
|
|
|
I didn't really learn anything in Go but it was interesting to write something completely different than the usual
|
|
web stuff. I did enjoy it a lot and I'm looking forward to the next one, with bevy while learning rust.
|
|
It'll be more polished, maybe.
|
|
|
|
If I had to point out one aspect I did not enjoy at all, it's **writing text**. It's probably because I'm coming from
|
|
the web where this is so trivial, but what a nightmare to size and position. It's 100% a skill issue, I hope, but goddamn.
