Player guide
How to play Don't Eat Me
Getting started
Choose Play Now for Quick Arena to learn the movement without an account. It places you with seven computer snakes.
Steer toward nearby food while keeping room around your head. Avoid cutting across another snakeโs body, and use the minimap and leaders list to follow the arena.
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 controllerโs 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 screenโs retry or leave option. Check the roomโs 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.
