This is sort of fixed in my linked branch. It works but is slow to
react, prehaps due to getch handling of the input queue?

Status in Snakes: Triaged

Bug description:
When holding down a direction key, the snake is locked to the path of the direction key that was pressed and will not be moveable untill the queue of direction instructions are complete. This is a major bug for players who prefer to hold the keys down while moving and makes the game almost unusable! It must be fixed before any release
