screen.addstr(y, x, tile, color)
_curses.error: addstr() returned ERR

@BENZJ I solved it by adding two 'try' code blocks, see my commit https://github.com/lesander/python-console-snake/commit/dd494ffc9febb2ab1fb41d7f937f0a41d102be21, or the changed file: https://github.com/tancredi/python-console-snake/pull/10/files

This isn't an issue, it's a pull-request (fix) waiting to be merged by @tancredi
