When new player connects to the server the game state changes, but already connected clients don't receive any information about that.

Add feature enabling the client to redraw the window correctly after minimizing it.

• start client without establishing connection with server
• connect to server only after selecting dedicated option from menu
• enable changing server's IP and PORT
• don't quit application if connection failed, just show message box with error
• handle the initial packet interpretation
• update game status in a 2D array after receiving messages from server
• send packets to server on keyboard action
• close connection on WM_DESTROY event and when creating new connection

• enable changing server's default PORT
• print server's IP and PORT after successful setup
• handle sending the initial packet
• handle messages received from clients
• send messages to clients after each server tick

Make sure that if some players quit the game everything is handled correctly.

• setup the game board and player's data
• randomize players' initial positions and move directions
• create the initial packet message
• setup timer to create server ticks
• update the game state on each tick
  • move each alive player's snake
  • check for collisions
