Python Snake Game

Purpose

To build a fully playable Snake game rendered entirely in the terminal, proving that an interactive, colorful game experience can be delivered using nothing more than Python's print function and console output.

Description

The game draws its playing field, snake, and food as colored block characters in the console, redrawing each frame with Python's print function. The keyboard library captures arrow-key input for real-time movement while the colored library handles ANSI styling for the snake, fence, and food. Classic mechanics are all present — snake growth on food consumption, collision detection against walls and self, and randomized food placement — in a compact single-file implementation.
