Snake game

A simple game of Snake made with Facebook's Create React App. Uses React for rendering in a way that has terrible performance, re-rendering everything every animation frame.

See src/index.js for how things fit together. The main game state src/models/GameState is mutated by the logic in src/actions. This game system design is somewhere in between traditional OO game objects and an ECS that separates data and logic. It's inconsistently and poorly designed, or more favorably, it experiments with different design patterns.

Rewriting the game state and actions with an ECS would be interesting.
