Snake written in x86-64 with NASM

It's the hit game snake! Written completely from scratch in assembly only using the Windows operating system APIs.

Why is the code unoptimized/messy?

I've never built an entire application in assembly before. In addition, x86-64 isn't very human friendly in comparison to simpler architectures.

So why build it in x86-64?

To become more familiar with the architecture so I am better at reverse engineering 64-bit applications.

How to build

Make sure you have

• Netwide assembler
• Any 64-bit compatible linker (like gcc)

Then run this in command prompt

nasm -f win64 snake.asm && gcc snake.obj -o snake.exe -luser32 -lkernel32 -lgdi32 -Wl,-subsystem,windows && snake.exe
