About

Gaboon Viper

Features
Read full description

Gaboon Viper is a pixel-art action game that reinvents what "growth" means: eating doesn't make you longer right away. Food first forms a lump inside your body, drifts backward as you move, and only adds to your length once digestion finishes. Your stomach has a capacity limit — burst it and it's game over. Laxatives, enzymes, and other items let you reverse the tables. This is a game about the rhythm of stomach capacity and metabolism — not just about speed or dodging walls. Key features: • Delayed digestion mechanic: food becomes a lump that queues up for digestion; length isn't added the instant you eat • Stomach capacity & laxatives: bursting means game over, but laxatives can save you — or turn the tables • Rival snake: from stage 5 of every world, a triangle-headed viper steals your eggs — and once it has digested, it comes after your tail. Eat too much and you can't outrun it • Multiple items: enzymes, diamonds, roller skates, bombs, each with its own risk and strategy • Multi-world stages: different terrain and obstacles, with difficulty ramping up as you progress • Game Center global leaderboard: see who lasts longest and grows the biggest • Original pixel art inspired by first-generation handheld dot-matrix screens Free to play in full. No ads, no in-app purchases.
