Beatriz Atanazio focused on enhancing gameplay dynamics in the courselab/coral repository by developing and integrating a poisoned apple mechanic for a Pygame-based snake game. Using Python and Pygame, she implemented logic for spawning, updating, and handling interactions with poisoned apples, which reduce the snake’s tail and introduce a risk-reward element. Her work included updating game-over conditions to account for tail changes, ensuring robust game state management. Beatriz also contributed to project governance by updating documentation and acknowledging contributors. The features were delivered with clear version control and traceability, reflecting a disciplined approach and adding depth to the game’s core mechanics.
