Introduction

A snake game in C using SDL2 inspired by the "Weird POV Effect" video on Youtube. The name "Noike" stands for NOIse snaKE.

The idea is essentially that you create an illusion of a moving shape by flipping pixels on a noise filled canvas, but when you pause the video of the moving shape, you can clearly see there is nothing there.

Play this video and pause at any point:
