INTRODUCTION

The following is an example game written in C based on the game called 'snake' which has been around since the earliest days of home computing (I can remember writing a version of it for my ZX81), and has re-emerged in recent years on mobile phones.

It isn't the world's greatest game, but it does give you an idea of what you can achieve with a relatively simple C program, and perhaps the basis by which to extend the principles and create more interesting games of your own.

.

Playing the gameYou can download the executable to try out the game without having to

compile it if you wish. Download it by clicking here - it is about 123k in length.Note that on faster PCs, it will be unplayably fast, so you will need to re-compile it  with the pause_length constant set to a higher value. My PC is about 350MHz and it is OK.To move the snake, use 'a' for up, 'z' for down, 'o' for left and 'p' for right. Again, there are constants you can change if you want to alter these settings. Press 'x' to exit the game at any time.

The aim of the game is to collect the dots (food) and avoid the obstacles (crosses, borders, and the snake itself). As you collect food, the snake gets longer, so increasing your likelihood of crashing into yourself. When you have collected enough food, you progress onto the next level, where your snake gets longer, and the amount of food to collect to progress through the level gets larger.You get scored according to the length of the snake and the number of 'x' obstacles on the screen.The speed increases every 5 levels.You get a bonus when you complete the level of 1000, increasing by 1000 each level (e.g. complete level 5, you get a 5000 bonus).There is no concept of lives. Once you hit an obstacle, that's it, game over.Make sure you do not have the caps lock on, otherwise the keys will fail to respond

PROPOSED SYSTEM

The following documentation is a project the “Name of the term paper allotted”. It is a detailed summary of all the drawbacks of the old system and how the new proposed system overcomes these shortcomings. The new system takes into account the various factors while designing a new system. It keeps into the account the Economical bandwidth available for the new system. The foremost thing that is taken care of is the Need and Requirements of the User.

DESCRIPTIONBefore developing software we keep following things in mind that we can develop powerful and quality softwarePROBLEM STATEMENT

o Problem statement was to design a module:o Which is user friendlyo Which will restrict the user from accessing other user’s data.o Which will help user in viewing his data and privileges.o Which will help the administrator to handle all the changes.

FUNCTIONS TO BE PROVIDED:The system will be user friendly and completely menu driven so that the users shall have no problem in using all options.

o The system will be efficient and fast in response.o The system will be customized according to needs.o It is a game which can play by anyoneo It is easy to use

SYSTEM REQUIRMENTSOperating system: MS Windows XP or Windows VistaLanguage: C LanguageProcessor: Pentium IV ProcessorRAM: 512 MBHard disk: 5 GB

REQUIREMENT ANALYSIS

This process is adopted when management of the system development, Personnel decide that the particular system needs improvement. The system development life cycle is the set of activities, carried out by the analyst, designers and users to develop and implement a system. The systems that are present in the nature follow common life cycle pattern. For example consider the raining system. Initially the rain falls into the river, river flows into sea, the sea water evaporates to form vapors, the vapors form clouds which again bring rain. Similarly consider a man made system initially a system is analyzed, designed and made operational by the efforts of system analysis. After successful operation or a number of users, the system becomes less and less effective by change in the environment. So these changes have to be incorporated in to the system by minor modifications. So the general activities from the life cycle of the system are given below:

Select ion and identification of the system to be studied Preliminary study Defining the system Design and development of the system Implementation of the system

SYSTEM DESIGN

Then we began with the design phase of the system. System design is a solution, a “HOW TO” approach to the creation of a new system. It translates system requirements into ways by which they can be made operational. It is a translational from a user oriented document to a document oriented programmers. For that, it provides the understanding and procedural details necessary for the implementation. Here we use Flowchart to supplement the working of the new system. The system thus made should be reliable, durable and above all should have least possible maintenance costs. It should overcome all the drawbacks of the Old existing system and most important of all meet the user requirements.

TESTING

Testing is the major control measure used during software development. Its basic function is to detect errors in the software. During requirement analysis and design, the output is a document that is usually textual and no executable. After the coding phase, computer programs are available that can be executed for testing purpose. This implies that testing not only, has to uncover errors introduced during coding, but also errors introduced during previous phase. Thus the goal of testing is to uncover the requirements, design and coding errors in the programs. So after testing the outputs of my project are as follows:

FUTURE SCOPE OF THE PROJECT

Our project will be able to implement in future after making some changes and modifications as we make our project at a very low level. So the modifications that can be done in our project are:IT can be made with good graphics.And we can add more options
