Loop Eel · September 7, 2026 playtest

Making a run
easier to read.

A small update to a Snake-like arcade experiment: hear what happens, see what a hit costs, and get into another run.

What changed

Short event sounds add feedback during play. A labelled sound control lets the player mute them.

Damage and healing have visible notices. The end of a run names the cause, so a collision leaves something to learn from.

Quick runs last up to 90 seconds. The original 180-second option remains, with separate best scores for each duration.

The recorded session included repeated retries, upgrade choices, and rising best scores. The added sound was noticed and positively received.

The final run ended in a tight turn with no hearts left and time still on the clock. It was not a completed 90-second survival.

Built with AI. Observations come from one internal playtest; they are not evidence of wider audience response. Loop Eel remains a private prototype.
