01.The Mechanics of Recoil Snake

Classic Snake operates on a strict discrete grid. **Tactical Serpent** throws the grid away and turns the snake into a physics-based Verlet chain. When your auto-turret fires at oncoming swarm bugs, every round ejected pushes the snake head backward with reverse momentum. If your tail is long, the recoil creates an accordion wave that propagates down your segments, often whipping your tail directly into oncoming bullets.

02.Combat Principles

* **Fire in Bursts:** Continuously holding fire will push your head backwards faster than forward movement speed, causing you to reverse blindly into hazards. * **Tail Management:** Your tail is both your ammo capacity and your health bar. Eating ammo packs lengthens your chain, but increases rotational inertia.
