sarpa.vi

I developed this simple Snake Game using the SDL2 library in C. I was inspired by a video on the CS50 YouTube channel, which demonstrated 2D Games in C using SDL. The name sarpa.vi (with 'sarpa/सर्प' meaning 'snake' in Nepali) playfully describes the snake-like behavior of my friends, while 'vi' refers to the Vim keybindings used for controls.
