Razer Keyboard Snake is a Python-based implementation of the classic Snake game, uniquely designed to utilize the RGB lighting features of Razer keyboards. This script transforms your keyboard into a vibrant gaming display, where the snake is represented by green lights that navigate the keys, while red fruits appear as targets to increase the snake's length with every fruit consumed.
