TypeSnake

I was bored, with nothing to do, BUT, some time ago I had created this pseudo game, the other game was my first or second day of TypeScript, it's been a while, I'm not a master, this code is not that of a master, but, this simple code is a progress from the previous one.

Code structure

The code, although not complex, is super easy, it is sectioned, which I will describe below, I could have sectioned the code into separate parts, in other files, but I don't want to.

Snake Class

The main class of the game, responsible for managing the game logic and user interactions.

• Constructor: Initializes the default variables and configurations of the game.
• initialize(): Initializes the game with the options provided by the user, configuring the board, power-ups, speeds, etc.
• update(): Updates the game state at each game cycle, controlling the snake's movement, detecting collisions and updating the screen.
• onEat(): Handles the actions that occur when the snake eats an apple or a PowerUp.
• addPowerUp(): Adds a new PowerUp to the board at a random position.
• deletePowerUp(): Removes a PowerUp from the board.
• getRandomIndex(): Generates a random position on the board.
• isInRange(): Checks if a position is within the collision detection range.
• draw(): Draws the current state of the game in the console.

Usage

To play the game, instantiate the Snake class and call the initialize() method passing the desired options, such as difficulty level, board dimensions and custom icons.

const snake = new Snake()

const options: IOptions =
{
  scorePerApple: 8,
  difficulty: 'high',
  icons: { background: '⬛', body: '🗿' },
  board: { width: 50, height: 50 }
}

snake.initialize(options)
