A classic snake game written in C using SDL2, with a focus on SDL2 rendering and event handling. This project contains multiple builds and test files, but the main game logic lives in main2_actual_main.c.

This is a personal SDL2 game project structured to make building and running on Windows easy without needing to install SDL2 system-wide. SDL2 includes and libraries are bundled inside the project.

On Windows:

1. Navigate to bgtsdl2/bin/
2. Double-click main2_actual_main.exe
3. Ensure SDL2.dll is present in the same folder

✅ No installation or compilation required.

Requirements: MinGW or another GCC compiler

gcc bgtsdl2/main2_actual_main.c -Ibgtsdl2/inc -Lbgtsdl2/lib -lmingw32 -lSDL2main -lSDL2 -o bgtsdl2/bin/main2_actual_main.exe -mwindows

• main2_actual_main.c is the main entry point.
• Files like main.c and snake.c are test builds.
• Top-level inc/ and lib/ folders are duplicates.
