We have the game-over dialog showing up whenever the Snake collides with the play-area boundaries. However, tapping on the Restart button does not restart the game from scratch.

void restart() {
    length = 5;
    positions = [];
    direction = getRandomDirection();
    speed = 1;
    changeSpeed();
}
