I'm new to Blitz, but I remember making something like this on AMOS Basic in the olden days! A snake game is a good project.

Just a though though... when the snake changes direction, won't you need 'corner pieces' for the body to make it look as if it's turning? I haven't seen your images, but if they're the way I imagine them you'll need a body segment that doesn't always lie horizontal or vertical. Am I over-complicating this now? Sorry!
