Am I understanding correctly when I assume 'mouse' is like a dot or whatever the snake eats? OK.

I strongly suggest going to the ''tutorials" section and doing a search on collision detection. You will probably be using whatdotcolour or Math.Distance.

Not even. Snake works on a grid system. So determining whether the snake is over top of the mouse is as simple as checking if the snake.x = the mouse.x and the snake.y = the mouse.y. It's also as complex as checking if the snake.x + the snake.dir = the mouse.x and the snake.y + the snake.dir = the mouse.y.
