⚡ Energy Eclipse : Vanishing Grid

Player ⚡ Turn

Energy Eclipse – AI Survival Mode

Energy Eclipse is a fast-evolving strategy game where the board itself refuses to stay permanent. Moves fade, energy collapses, and victory must be claimed before your past actions disappear.

Core Gameplay Concept

Players take turns placing energy symbols on a 3×3 grid. Unlike classic grid games, the arena enforces an energy limit — only recent actions remain active.

Energy Memory Limit

The arena can only sustain six energy activations at a time. When the seventh move is made, the oldest active node collapses and vanishes automatically.

Dynamic Victory Detection

A win is detected instantly when three active energy nodes align in a valid pattern. Timing matters — delayed setups often fail as nodes disappear mid-plan.

Energy Beam Effect

When a winning formation appears, a glowing energy line connects the first and last node of the sequence, visually confirming dominance before the arena shuts down.

Sound-Driven Feedback

Instead of traditional audio files, Energy Eclipse generates sound procedurally using real-time oscillation, creating a clean and futuristic feel.

AI-Oriented Design Philosophy

This mode is built for adaptive playstyles. Because the board constantly forgets old actions, reactive thinking outperforms rigid strategies.

Endgame Behavior

Once a valid energy alignment is detected, all interactions are disabled instantly. The arena freezes, highlighting the winning state without delay.

Restart and Replay

Restarting the match fully resets the energy field, sound engine, and board memory, allowing immediate replay without page reload.

Frequently Asked Questions

Why do symbols disappear?
The arena enforces an energy cap, removing the oldest moves automatically.

Is this traditional Tic Tac Toe?
No. It is a memory-based energy control game inspired by classic mechanics.

Can a win disappear?
No. Victory is locked the moment a valid alignment exists.

Does the AI cheat?
No. The system only enforces timing and memory rules.

Why Energy Eclipse Feels Different

By removing permanence from the board, Energy Eclipse forces players to think in waves rather than positions. Winning is less about control — and more about striking at the exact right moment.
