Apple
A downloadable game for Linux
A P P L E! a Spring Lisp Game Jam 2023 entry by Case Duckworth
Welcome to APPLE, the game of SNAKE, except you're the apple instead!
Specifically, you're the RED APPLE running from the SNAKE. He's hungry and looking for you!
Luckily, you can distract him by going near other FRUIT #(fruits), which he'll eat instead of you, getting longer until he finally can't move and eat himself.
Move using HJKL or arrow keys! Quit with Q, and pause with ESC.
GOOD LUCK :D
Download
Install instructions
The source for `apple` and for `yolk`, my own ANSI escape library, are included in the tarball. You'll also need CHICKEN scheme v5 to build it, and the `r7rs`, `matchable`, and `stty` eggs.
NOTE: the apple.tar is not gzipped! I forgot to pass the -z flag.
The executable has been built with `csc -static` so it should work out of the box. Make sure to download the binary for your libc! (apple-glibc should work on most computers)
For more information, see the project's repo: https://git.acdw.net/apple

Fun game!
Very cool! The first time I played it, the snake managed to oof itself right after eating the first green apple :>
Yeah the decision tree for the snake could be improved, and possibly the collision logic.
