How to play

Steer with ← ↑ → ↓ (or WASD, or swipe). Every apple grows the snake and gently raises the speed — the board gets hostile exactly as you get confident. Pause with P; the game also pauses itself if you switch tabs, so no cheap deaths while answering a message.

Pro move: don't chase apples across the middle. Hug the walls in a predictable loop and only cut inward when the apple is two squares from your head. Dying at length 30 to your own tail is a rite of passage.
