Game instructions

How to start the game

1. You can play this game with either:
1. your keyboard
2. your right hand (make sure your right hand is in the frame)
2. Scripts to run:

To play by motion sensor/fingers, `%run ./hand.py` first (skip this step if you want to play with your keyboard).
Otherwise, to play by your keyboard, `%run ./main.py` to start the game.

How to play

You are the chicken and your goal is to eat as many cookies as possible while avoiding the snake. Some things to keep in mind:

1. Your chicken gets 1 extra chicken friend everytime it eats a cookie
2. As your chicken army grows, your line of chickens moves faster.
3. The snake is smart so it changes position if you succeed in avoiding it.

End of game

The game ends when:

1. Your chicken hits the snake
2. Your chicken hits any of the walls
3. Your chicken hits one of its friends

How to operate the game

1. Finger controls:

• Put your index finger straight up for up motion:
  
• Put your index finger down for down motion
  
• Tilt your index finger towards the left for left motion
  
• Tilt your index finger towards the right for right motion
  

2. Keyboard controls: Use the "up⬆️", "down⬇️", "left⬅️", "right➡️" keys on your keyboardto play
