Tintail in play: a rose-coloured snake on a floating island board with crystal gates in three colours

What it solves

The gap

Snake stages with gates and colour rules are easy to make impossible by accident, and checking every star target by playing is slow.

What it is

A finished, tested arcade snake whose stages are text maps and whose star targets a search bot proves.

How you use it

Unzip, run npm ci and npm run dev, then edit src/game.config.ts; npm test checks the game again in seconds.

Source code of a real, playable game to reskin and learn from, with its proofs built into the tests.

Who it is for

Use it when

  • Publishing your own arcade snake or grid game on itch.io, web portals or your site.
  • Learning deterministic tick-based games and search-based stage testing in TypeScript.
  • Building a branded arcade mini-game for a client.

Built for

  • Web and indie game developers who know some TypeScript.
  • Studios and freelancers who make branded browser games.

What you get

One config file

Title, logo, save key, rules, three colours, medals, palette, sound and the 15 stage maps as text.

Stages with a proof

On every npm test a search bot plays every stage and must earn three stars, so each star target is fair.

A finished game

Colour gates and dye pools, double points for matching fruit, 15 stages, an endless mode, three medals and a daily run.

Tests and a guide

102 unit tests and Playwright browser runs, a size budget, an upload zip for itch.io or any static host, and a guide to adding stages and new tiles.
