Fun game. The music and sound effect were nice. II played several times, but I never got the score over 0 points. Fun game overall.

A long struggle between the two have finally got its own game.
Nice work!

Fun game, clicking for every shot felt tedious though.

Had a blast playing it just fun in general. also nice graphics and audio. got a bit laggy when to many worms spawned though. Really fun enjoyable game!

This is a pretty neat game but it has a pretty serious glitch, at least it did on my computer. As I played the frame-rate gradually died. (I have an i7 CPU with decent graphics card.) Eventually the frame-rate was completely un-playable and the enemies all glitched out and got stuck at the bottom of the screen.

I feel like this would be a pretty nice entry if it wasn't for that bug. At the start the game-play felt solid and the graphics all fit together. All in all, nice work but it has some issues that need solving.

I think you might have some sort of issue with entity cleanup or something. The game can get really laggy.

First, I started just clicking a lot to shoot a bunch of arrows:

Eventually, even after I stopped, the works all got glitched and were disappearing before they even reached the surface:

Still, a decently fun game. I did like how you had the "Jumpjuice" meter that was a pretty nice alteration on a standard double jump, allowing more jumps if you just didn't jump as much.

Sorry about the lagging bug. I'm currently trying to fix it.

Fixed the framerate bug. It was an issue with the physics system. Thanks for the heads up, guys :)

hey i like the simplistic style, but the movement of the ninjadude is way too fast for me, i feel like i have very little control, but maybe thats just me

Quite fun game ! Ninjas rocks !

Fun game. It got a bit boring after you realize that you can just spam the arrows. Could have used a bit more balancing but a nice little arcade game still. :) Extra points for music!

petey123567 2014-04-29 16:39

Nice little game, infinite arrows seem OP though.

tomvert 2014-04-29 18:04

A nice little game, there could have been different kind of worms, and maybe you could have make waves of ennemies instead of having them coming all at once. Anyway good job :)

drprettypatty 2014-04-29 19:39

This was awesome!! I love "Jumpjuice" and how it says I still did good at the end haha. Quick and really fun :)

orangepascal 2014-04-29 20:40

Fun game, lot's of stuff going! I kept dying cause I was aiming and lost track of the worms

sknoslo 2014-04-30 01:05

2900 points was my best! Fun game. Could definitely use some balancing. Probably just by adding a half second delay before the player can fire the next arrow, you could make it a lot harder.

josefnpat 2014-04-30 01:41

Nice simple game! After a while I found I could just sit in the corner and shoot. Heh, nice game though!

dreii 2014-04-30 07:20

SO.MANY.WORMS haha! this was good fun!

thorig 2014-04-30 11:59

A small nice game.

dkkarate 2014-05-01 01:23

looked fun but ended up being a pretty boring game. Don't get me wrong it wasn't horrible but it was just kinda boring.

nddrylliog 2014-05-01 10:11

I dead, but I did good! :)

Had a real nice feel/gameplay this time around. Gratz on the progress!

voxel 2014-05-02 09:47

Haha, 'but you still did good'. Such a nice game over screen. I really liked the music in this. I liked how the shots went through enemies allowing you to set up multikills, maybe a combo bonus or something would be nice for that and would help encourage careful aiming? Lots of fun

javifugitivo 2014-05-03 00:35

Very funny! Nice job! ;)

crazi456 2014-05-03 01:07

Pretty entertaining little game! Got pretty crazy after a while. Good work!

frogcheese 2014-05-11 18:55

Worked out a system where I stayed in the left corner and spammed to top right and managed to get 621 kills before biting the dust. An intense but fun little game that did a number on my wrist. The sacrifices we have to make to destroy those nasty worms... Anyway, good job!

misterwalter 2014-05-13 16:09

The game over message was perfect, thank you for that.
The worms rotation was a bit weird. I think that having them face in the direction they are going, and having some dirt particles fly up when they reenter the ground would go a long way.
It was fun though, keep it up!

Game was fun and fairly well stylized. The gameplay could have used a few tweaks, such as a better visual cue for being hit
