Inspiration
I grew up playing Snake and wanted to bring that one-more-round joy to modern phones — redrawn as a playful neon cartoon with a jungle heart.
What it does
Glow Snake: Neon Classic is a free arcade game with four modes (Classic, Wrap, Timed, Obstacle), unlockable skins, habitat themes, combo bonuses, a shared Daily Challenge, and streaks. A Remove Ads subscription (monthly or yearly) powered by RevenueCat unlocks an ad-free experience plus exclusive skins and themes — one entitlement works across iOS and Android.
How I built it
Built with React Native + Expo and TypeScript, Reanimated for game feel, RevenueCat for subscriptions, and Unity LevelPlay for ads — with 113 automated tests guarding game logic, purchases, and saved progress. iOS launched in 1st Aug 2026; Android launched on Google Play on August 8, 2026.
Challenges
An App Store naming rejection forced a full rebrand mid-project. Paywall compliance reviews taught me exactly what Apple and Google expect from a subscription app. And on Android launch day, I caught and fixed a paywall scrolling bug within the hour.
What's next
Daily Challenge tournaments, more habitats and skins, and growing the Android audience to match iOS.
