Your First Game

Let's build a complete game step by step.

What We're Building

A classic Snake game with:

• Moving snake
• Food collection
• Score tracking
• Game over state

Step 1: Create the Game

Open PlayCraft and type:

Create a snake game with a green snake on a dark background

Wait for the AI to generate the code. You should see a basic snake appear in the preview.

Step 2: Add Controls

Add arrow key controls to move the snake

Now you can move the snake with your keyboard.

Step 3: Add Food

Add red food that appears randomly. When the snake eats it, grow longer.

Step 4: Add Score

Add a score counter in the top-right corner. +10 points per food.

Step 5: Add Game Over

End the game if the snake hits the wall or itself. Show "Game Over" with final score.

Final Result

You now have a complete, playable Snake game!
