9000INC ยท Neon Snake Arena

Don't Eat Me

Grow, boost, eat, and survive on a dedicated authoritative server while the browser edition remains available.

Don't Eat Me now has a native Godot edition for Android, Windows, and Linux using the shared 9000INC account, lobby, ENet, reconnect, diagnostics, compiler, and dedicated-server foundation. FFA, Red vs Blue, and 4-Team play preserve the established browser-game direction while movement, food, growth, collisions, eliminations, and results are server-authoritative. The existing browser game remains the install-free fallback.

Player guide

How to play Don't Eat Me

Getting started

  1. Choose Play Now for Quick Arena to learn the movement without an account. It places you with seven computer snakes.

  2. Steer toward nearby food while keeping room around your head. Avoid cutting across another snakeโ€™s body, and use the minimap and leaders list to follow the arena.

  3. For Online Arenas, link your 9000INC account and create a room, enter a room code, or browse public rooms. Free For All and Red vs Blue need at least two connected players; 4 Teams needs four. The host starts the round.

Controls

Steer

WASD, arrow keys, or the controllerโ€™s left stick.

Touch or mouse

Drag on the left side to steer relative to where the drag began. Letting go keeps your last heading.

Boost

Space or the Boost button accelerates your snake at a cost to length.

Rules and modes

Free For All

Each snake competes individually for food, growth, and score.

Team arenas

Red vs Blue divides players into two teams; 4 Teams uses four. Team play includes friendly-team collision protection.

Watching

Join as a spectator to watch without occupying a player slot. The host can end the room for everyone.

A useful first goal

Make your first goal a clean escape route, then collect food. Boosting constantly spends the length you just gained. Use it briefly when you need space, and release it once you are clear.

If you get stuck

If joining fails, use the connection screenโ€™s retry or leave option. Check the roomโ€™s player count and your release version before asking the host to start again. Cross-platform online play remains Beta; availability of a download does not guarantee every combination of devices has been verified.

An older download may differ from this guide. Check the version and availability shown on the release page.
