Light Trails

Race across a neon grid leaving a glowing trail behind you. Hit any trail or the wall and you're out. Trap your opponent to win. Both players move continuously at a fixed pace — there's no stopping, only choosing where to turn next. First to 3 round wins takes the match.

Light Trails P1: 2 P2: 1 ROUND 4

Controls

  • Arrow keys — Change direction (Up, Down, Left, Right)
  • WASD — Alternative controls

Rules

  • Both players move one cell per tick on a 60x40 grid (10 ticks per second)
  • Every cell you cross becomes part of your trail permanently
  • Crashing into any trail (yours or opponent's) or the arena wall kills you
  • You cannot reverse direction — 180-degree turns are blocked
  • If both players collide head-on in the same cell, the round is a draw (no points)
  • First to 3 round wins takes the match
  • Starting positions swap each round for fairness

Inspiration

Based on Atari's Surround (1977) and Tron's Light Cycles — the original trail game.
