The premise, in the publisher's words

Can you feed the hungry snek and avoid corruption? smol snek is a small snake game for the Atari 8bit computers. Your playing style affects the chance for snek to get corrupted by food. Earn bonus score by picking up food guaranteed to not corrupt snek. Corruption can spawn bad food, grow snek, make the play field shake or melt in with the background. Avoid corruption long enough to unlock the secret level! The game has been tested on a PAL Atari 600XL expanded to 64K, and an PAL Atari 130XE. The game should work fine on NTSC machines, and the snek speed is adapted to be the same on both variants to make high score table fair.
