Viper Sprint — Arcade

Grow the longest snake without touching walls or tail.

In one line: a starting step of 100 ms that tightens as you eat, no downloads, and your best score stays saved on this device.

Viper Sprint takes a familiar idea and tunes it until it clicks. Here you get a starting step of 100 ms that tightens as you eat, wrapped in a clean, distraction-free board that works just as well on a phone as on a laptop.

How Viper Sprint plays

Big scores come from patience, not speed - hug the edges, keep escape lanes open, and only cut across the middle when the pellet is worth the risk. It is a game about not panicking, dressed up as a game about eating.

Why Viper Sprint sticks

It suits anyone with a queue to wait in or a kettle to watch: students between classes, commuters, parents stealing ten quiet minutes. There is no meta-progression to lose and nothing to catch up on - a week away costs you nothing but a little sharpness.

How to play

  1. Press play - your snake starts small in the middle.
  2. Swipe or use the arrow keys to steer.
  3. Eat every pellet to grow longer and faster.
  4. Never touch the walls or your own tail.

Tips and strategy

  • Chase pellets along the edge; cutting across the middle is how runs end.
  • At high speed, queue turns early - the input buffer takes two.
  • Long game? Spiral inward deliberately instead of chasing straight lines.
  • Hug the walls and keep the centre free as an escape lane.
  • Never turn into a gap narrower than your current length.

Who it suits: Perfect for players who want a real challenge in a small package - commuters, students, and anyone who enjoys beating their own record more than beating other people.

Frequently asked questions

How is this version different from the classic?

This build has its own tuning - a starting step of 100 ms that tightens as you eat. Your progress and best score are saved locally on your device.

Is my progress saved?

Your best score is stored in your browser's local storage, so it survives refreshes. Clearing site data resets it.

Can I play offline?

Once the page has loaded, most of it keeps working without a connection, but for the cleanest experience play with the page freshly loaded.

Is Viper Sprint free to play?

Yes - it runs entirely in your browser with no download, no account and no payment. Open the page and press play.

Does Viper Sprint work on my phone?

It is built for phones first: portrait or landscape, one-thumb controls, and it runs fine on mid-range hardware. Desktop keyboard controls work too.
