Scoring & combos

Combo Eat food quickly (within ~14 moves): 1st=50, 2nd=100, 3rd=150, 4th=200… pts each.
Length Every 5 segments: +100, +200, +300… bonus.
Survival +25 points every 40 ticks while alive.
Golden food Random chance: 2× points.
Second food Sometimes a second dot appears; both give points.
Close call +5,000 when you survive via shield or extra life.

Hazards (when length ≥ 10)

▲ Spike traps — lose a life (or +5,000 with shield); spike relocates.
▣ Walls — block movement; hit = life lost or +5,000 with shield.
→ One-way gates — correct way = +2,000 and shrink to half length; wrong way = life or +5,000.
🕳 Wormhole — two portals. Enter one, exit the other.
From length 10, one new obstacle every 5 length (trap → wall segment → gate → …). From length 12, a wormhole pair appears.
