About the Game

Outsmart them. The steering is handled.

autocycle-light is a snake-style battle for up to 4 players with one big twist: your line automatically steers around walls and bodies. You never die to a missed keypress — you die because a rival outplayed you. Plan routes, cut off space, and force everyone else into a dead end.

Items turn the tide

  • Lasers — carve an escape route straight through obstacles and bodies. The wide blue laser clears a whole corridor.
  • Warp — drop a marker, then jump back to it at the perfect moment. Escape a trap, or spring one.
  • Bombs & homing missiles — aim, throw, and reshape the arena.
  • Barriers, speed and stop effects — instant pickups that shake up the whole match.

Battle anywhere

  • Online — Ranked and casual quick matches with Elo rating, powered by rollback netcode for lag-free feel. Private lobbies for friends, plus direct IP play.
  • Local — Up to 4 players on one PC with keyboard and gamepads.
  • VS AI Challenge — Climb the stage ladder against increasingly ruthless AI.

Fully deterministic, fully replayable

Every match is a deterministic simulation: replays are exact, tiny, and shareable. Study your losses frame by frame.

Make it yours

Unlockable skins with GPU-powered effects — flowing water, boiling magma, pulsing veins, glowing neon — plus custom heads and colors. Cosmetics only: no pay-to-win, ever.
