C Snake Game Simple

This document provides the code for a simple C++ snake game written in 150 lines of code using Visual Studio. The code includes functions for setting up the game, drawing the game board and snake, getting input, and running the core game algorithm to move the snake and check for collisions. Key aspects include storing the snake coordinates in arrays, randomly generating the fruit location, increasing the snake length when eating fruit, and ending the game if the snake runs into itself or the edges of the board. The full code is broken into multiple pages that show the various functions and main game loop.
