Gandalf's Snake

-----------------------------------

Well, I've also made a snake game like everyone else, and since I haven't posted many of my programs before, I will now.  Also, I recently started working on a C++ "port" of this game (still working on it), so posting the original doesn't seem a bad idea.

Features include:
-High scores
-Unique scoring system.  You get more points the faster you get the "food".
-Amazing graphics! :)
-Grid based (of course)
-An 'escape' button that works

I didn't put too much effort into the menu parts of the game, so don't judge those since they most likely will not be bug-proof.  It's been a while since I've worked on this game, but any suggestions are welcome.  I may not put them in this version, but if I can convert it to C++, then it may go to the next snake game.

So next time there is a snake game competition, feel free to include mine!

Looking good. Heck, I'll even give you bits for this :D 

I'm not sure how you're handling the different speeds though. Ideally you'd have a single setting with DelaySinceLast going.

And the scoring system should be more transparent. I understand that I get more points for getting to the food faster, but by how much?

My favorite was the use of file extensions.   .asd
