Stretch Snake is a grid-based logic puzzle game built around the theme GROW.

As the snake moves, it grows permanently, turning the entire level into a planning challenge where every move shapes the future.

The game directly represents GROWTH through gameplay:

  • The snake grows with every move

  • Growth is irreversible

  • More growth = fewer options

  • Poor growth decisions can block the entire level

You donโ€™t just move —
you grow into your own constraints.

๐ŸŽฏ Goal

  • Move the snake across the grid

  • Cover all reachable tiles exactly once

  • Get stuck or block a path โ†’ Fail

  • Cover all tiles โ†’ Level Complete

๐Ÿง  Core Gameplay

  • Grid-based movement (Up / Down / Left / Right)

  • Snake body permanently stretches

  • Tiles cannot be revisited

  • Small levels with deep planning

  • Many levels require multiple attempts

โญ Star & Time System

Levels award 1โ€“3 stars based on completion time:

  • 3 Stars โ†’ Finish within 10 seconds

  • 2 Stars โ†’ Finish within 15 seconds

  • 1 Star โ†’ Finish after 15 seconds

โฑ๏ธ Time never causes failure —
it only measures how efficiently you grow.

๐Ÿงฉ Mechanics

  • One-way tunnels that restrict movement direction

  • Traps and walls that instantly fail the level

  • Puzzle layouts that reward foresight and patience

  • Smooth animations, particles, and camera shake

๐ŸŽฎ Controls

PC

  • W / A / S / D

  • Arrow Keys

  • Left Mouse Click โ€“ move toward clicked direction

Mobile

  • Swipe Up / Down / Left / Right

๐Ÿ“ˆ Difficulty Progression

  • Levels 1โ€“5: Very Easy (learning growth)

  • Levels 6โ€“10: Easy โ†’ Normal

  • Levels 11โ€“13: Normal

  • Levels 14โ€“15: Hard (growth must be planned perfectly)

Anyone can finish the game —
hard levels only need time and thinking, not reflex skill.
