+bhall408 Posted March 13, 2021 Share Posted March 13, 2021 Nice and colorful! I gave it a try and Argon, and it runs well, but I think would benefit by being more forgiving about diagonal inputs. As an example, if you were headed to the left and provided a up+right or down+right, it considers that back-tracking and kills you. Oddly, you could do left + up or left + down and it does nothing (ignores the input), so it only ever penalizes for diagonal inputs in fact, it might be nicer if it ended up ignorning all inputs that would backtrack, rather than killing you for backtracking.

Can confirm the backtrack inputs are now ignored - that is a big help! You can still do some odd things with diagonals. Here is a screen shot showing one of them -- head the snake down, and then input a diagonal down, and you end up with a 90 degree bend at the point you did the diagonal input.
