Cursor Practice Project-11-Game (1), The "Hello World" of AI Games
Project Description
Cursor Game Programming (1), The "Hello World" of AI Games - Snake
Time spent: Approximately 0.5 hours
Cursor usage count: About 1 time
Starting with this project, I will attempt to use Cursor to develop a series of games. First, we begin with the "Snake" game. Currently, AI programming has elevated the traditional "hello world" to "Help me write a Snake game!"
My plan is to continuously update various types of game development, exploring all aspects of Cursor in game programming.
