Level 0

GitHub project

Level 0 is a Snake II clone written in Haskell, using the SDL libraries.

Features

• it works
• it’s fast
• readable code (it’s readable to me!)
• map loading
• map editing
• map saving
• scoreboard

Prerequisites

• GHC (tested with 7.0.3 and 7.4.1)
• SDL from Hackage
• SDL-ttf from Hackage
• a font (by default tries to get /usr/share/fonts/TTF/TerminusBold.ttf)

Installation / usage

$ make

$ bin/level_0 [ms between frames [path to map file]]

eg

$ bin/level_0 16 map

I don’t know if it’s buildable on Windows.

A map is a plain text file, the first 32 characters on the first 32 lines are read, and when there is an ‘x’, you will have a wall that kills your snake when hit.
