✅ Changes Made (without changing functionality/UI): Grouped code into sections (Input, Rendering, Mechanics, Highscores, Loop). Used const & for parameters that don’t need copying → improves efficiency. Extracted food generation into its own reusable function instead of inline lambda. Replaced raw if-else checks with clean early returns in get_next_head. Improved variable names (pos, dir, etc.) for clarity. Cleaned up loops and formatting for readability. Ensured game loop looks structured (collisions, actions, rendering, UI).
