  • Started re- factoring/thinking the game code as it is very unorganized (was not the main focus of dev up til now).

• 0.5:
  • Project started in the 2nd quarter of 2016;

FUTURE IDEAS (that will never happen)

These things will never happen, but I'd like to keep them for my own future amusement.

• Gameplay:
  • Endless mode with events and powerups;
  • "Vicinity food generation";
  • Wall tiles;
  • Map editor.
• Options:
  • Support multiple (or any) resolutions;
  • Full-screen.
• Misc:
  • Add notifications/warnings (like "Are you sure you want to quit?");
  • Sound (Old-school bleeps. Melody based on the snake's actions);
  • Actual random place for the snake to start from;
  • AI for the snake.
• No more Core reworks.
