80s "worm" style game [QIX]

I've gone through every list of early 80's PC games I can find and I can't find this game.

I got my first computer when I was 6 back in 1979 so this game would have been from the early to mid 80's.

on the screen you have a square, a spiral thing made of lines would travel inside the square, bouncing off walls. You moved a cursor around the perimeter line and would draw lines in the center marking out territory. The level ended when you had more than 50% of the territory. There was a second enemy who was just a squigly line traveling the perimeter line with you. If it touched you then you died. as the levels increased a second of each type of enemy and faster speeds would be introduced.

I'm sorry that my description is bad. Its a game I played more than 35 years ago.

If it sounds familiar to anyone, please let me know.

Thank you.

This seems like one of the QIX games or QIX variants.
