    The document provides instructions for creating a basic snake game using the Processing programming environment. It outlines the key components of the snake game - the snake head that moves continuously in response to button presses and eats food items, the snake body that follows the head and grows in length each time food is eaten, and randomly placed food items that reappear when eaten. It then provides step-by-step instructions for downloading Processing, setting up the basic program structure, defining variables to track the snake position and movement, and adding keyboard controls to change the snake direction. The document encourages adding onto the basic game and including modifications with descriptions of how they change the player experience.

    Processing
    Intro
    Snake Game

    The snake “head”:


    -Moves continuously.
    -Direction responsive to buttons.
    -Can eat food items.
    -Dies if it eats the body.
    -Can jump across screen edges.

    The snake “body”:


    -Follows the head.
    -Increases in size every time food is eaten.

    The “food”:
    -Is placed randomly in the screen.
    -Can be eaten by the snake.
    -Reappears at a new location every time is eaten.
    Go to:
    processing.org

    Click on:
    “Download Processing”
    Download the Processing version that suits
    your Operating System.
    Download the Processing version that suits
    your Operating Systemc
    Open Processing, you should see a blank
    program.
    Start your program creating the “setup” and
    “draw” functions. Note the position of the
    parenthesis and brackets, they all have a
    function. Don’t forget to add “void” before
    each function.
    Use the “size” function to determine the
    workspace dimensions. The two numbers
    represent the horizontal and vertical lengths
    of the workspace. Press “Run” button to test
    the code. A grey rectangle should appear.
    Close the new window to continue working.
    Use the “background” function to define the
    color.
    The three numbers correspond to the Red,
    Green, and Blue components of the color
    (RGB). Define the background color of your
    preference.
    Add two variables of the type integer to
    encode the position of the snake. Call them
    however you want. In this example they are
    named “posX” and “posY”. Use the function
    “rect” to place a rectangle on said position.
    This will be our snake head.
    Add two more variables to encode the
    snake movement.
    Use those values to update the snake
    position every cycle. Use the “delay”
    function to define the game update rate.
    At the end of the program create a new
    function named “keyPressed()”. This
    function will run every time you use your
    keyboard. You can add “if” conditionals to
    change the snake movement when a key is
    pressed.
    To convert the square to a true snake.
    Change the code that defines the position
    as shown.
    Try your program.
    P.S.:
    You can add comments that do not affect
    the program functionality. Note the
    difference between “line comment” and
    “paragraph comment”.
    Continue adding code until you have a fully functional game. Then add your own modification. It can be some
    change in functionality, playability, or aesthetic. Be creative!
    Describe how your modification changes the player experience (less tan 200 words).
    Paste said description in the program as a paragraph comment.

    Compress the folder of your program as a zip file
