About the Game

Grow a Colorful Colony

Relax with Auto Snakes in Outer Space! A slow, meditative, and mesmerizing incremental idler where colorful snakes automatically collect food. The player's goal is to make them more efficient.

Increase your snakes’ speed and food supply. Unlock abilities and upgrades. Complete tasks to unlock new skins. Prestige for permanent perks. Beat the game to Unlock Endless Mode.

Play how you want!

  • A challenge run with only one snake? Go for it.

  • All snakes and no abilities? That's fine, too.

  • One snake and no speed upgrades? Okay... Sure.

Passive Gameplay, Active Gameplay - Both!

Let your snakes passively collect food. Or, take command and guide them with your cursor.

Snakes even get slightly magnetic while being guided, attracting nearby food. Scientific!

Choose from over 150 skins to find your style

Be colorful! (Or monochrome, we've got those skins too.)

Unlock skins by completing in-game tasks. Assign the skins at random, or add them to your favorites.

We've got...

  • Dozens of in-game tasks — Progress bars go up!

  • Over 150+ skins — Closer to 200!

  • Eight unique abilities — Auto-cast is optional.

  • Prestige Mechanics — Reset progress for long term gain.

  • (Theoretical) Endless Mode — Make your computer mad!

  • A piano, playable with your keyboard — Because it's fun!
