Grow your turf and slice other sneks' tails — a free-movement territory game.
About this app
You are a snek. 🐍 Loop out from your turf, draw a shape, and close it to swallow everything inside — the more ground you claim, the bigger you get. Your tail is your weak spot: slice a rival snek's tail to knock them out, and never let anyone slice yours.
There is no grid here — your head carries a real heading and banks into smooth, continuous curves as you steer, so carving a daring arc around a rival and sealing it off feels like drawing, not stepping. The arena is a circle — drift too steeply into the wall and you are gone.
Your opponents are neural bots: a small reinforcement-learning network trained by self-play, running entirely on your device. Pick AI HARD to face the trained net, EASY SCRIPTED for a gentler hand-written bot, or NO BOTS to paint in peace. Inference runs off the render thread, so it stays smooth even on modest phones.
Features:
* Free, continuous movement — smooth curves, not four-direction steps. * On-device neural self-play bots (no network needed) plus a scripted fallback. * Three opponent modes and an optional respawn toggle. * A circular arena with smooth, rounded territories and a clean ribbon trail. * A local high score per mode. No accounts, no ads, no tracking, no network access. * Tiny download and fully playable offline.

How to install this safely
How to verify the file you downloaded
Before you install anything, confirm the file is the one described here. On a computer, run shasum -a 256 your-download.apk (macOS or Linux) or certutil -hashfile your-download.apk SHA256 (Windows), then compare the output character-for-character with the SHA-256 on this page. If a single character differs, the file is not the build we recorded — delete it.
What the signing certificate proves
Every Android app is signed with a private key that only its developer holds. The fingerprint on this page is a hash of the matching public certificate, and it proves continuity rather than identity: it tells you a build came from whoever signed the earlier ones. Android enforces this at install time — if a package claiming to be paper.loop2 is signed with a different key, the system will refuse to install it over your existing copy. A fingerprint that changes between releases is worth pausing on, because a repackaged app that has been modified by someone else cannot keep the original signature.
How to roll back to an earlier version
If the current release misbehaves, 1.0.1 is the last build before it. Android will not install an older version code over a newer one, so you must uninstall Paper Loop 2 first — which clears its local data unless you have a backup. Reinstall the older APK only if its signing fingerprint matches the build you already trust, and check the API range: an older release may target an Android version your device has moved past.
Why we list sources instead of hosting everything
The official store channel is almost always the right choice: it updates automatically and carries the publisher's own distribution guarantees. A direct APK is useful when a device has no store access, when a rollout has not reached your region, or when you need a specific version — and only when the publisher has authorized that copy. APKBrowse does not list pirated, cracked, or unauthorized rebuilds of Paper Loop 2, and a listing is removed when the evidence for it stops holding up.
