Rules

• Every time you move somewhere you leave a color trail.
• You can only move to a blank tile
• You can't move out of the map (100 x 100)
• You can only move to your left, up or right. (Moving backward is suicide as you hit your own trail !)
• If you take to much CPU to decide where to go, you die
• If two players moved to the same spot, they both die
• Survive as long as you can.
