This is a Snake game I wrote in about two week time for my high school CS project. It uses javax.swing for graphics and java.awt for events.

This is the src/ directory structure. Code in src/main/java/ is separated into three packages, Controller, Model and View. There are also replaceable resources under src/main/resources, such as sprites and sound files.

There are also test files under src/test/java/. They are JUnit tests to check certain functionalities are working. To use them, check the below instructions.

These are the .sh files under build/

The .sh files are there to help the user use the code! There are currently four of them:

• build/scripts/compileEverything.sh is to (re-)compile both the game source and the unit test codes.
• build/scripts/compileGame.sh only compiles the game source under src/main/java/. Use this to test the game.
• build/scripts/test.sh runs the unit tests against the code.
  • Usage: build/scripts/test.sh [test1] [test2] [test3] ... or build/scripts/test.sh -all
  • Calling build/scripts/test.sh without any arguments brings up a help menu.
• build/scripts/clean.sh removes all class files and jar files.
  • Mainly used by me to clean up my compilation files.

1. Open Finder, go to /Applications/, go into Utilities/ and find Terminal.app. Open it.

• An alternative is to open Spotlight and search for Terminal. Hit Return.

2. If you haven't, download this code as a zip, unzip it and open it in a Finder. Locate the .sh files.
3. Now in your Terminal, type chmod +x .
4. Now drag your .sh file into the Terminal. Hit Return.
5. Repeat step 4 without typing anything before it. Hit Return.

• If you are using build/scripts/test.sh, this will bring up a help menu. Repeat the drag and drop process following the instructions.

6. It should compile and run the relevant code now!
7. If you put any arguments (e.g. a dash -) after the command something.sh, it will not run the compiled code!

• Example: build/scripts/compileGame.sh -
