Simple but effective idea. Would be cool if there were more things added with each level besides more worms :)
I liked the idea with the boot (although it's very gruesome :P)
The game seems to suffer from a memory leak or something in Firefox, as it slows down beyond playability after a while.
In Chrome it works fine though.
Thanks for your feedback and I agree with you, Gins. I had some more ideas but due to real life appointments they didn't make it into the game.
The Firefox issue was also reported to me by a friend. Strange.
I enjoyed it. It is a solid little game, great work.
Brrr, the boot gave me quite a shock xD Is there any way to know when it will hit you? Otherwise the game is a little easy: the rats don't move very intelligently, I had to purposefully draw out the game to see the water hose (nice animation btw ;) ) and getting air is no problem either.
Still nice work in 48 hours for your first-time submission - I barely managed to finish in 72 and had to do some bugfixes even after that.
I had the same performance issue in Firefox, with the game steadily becoming more unplayable the longer the game was running.
@Dining Philosopher: The behavior of the boot is pretty simple: if your mole stays on an "air hole" for more than a second the boot comes down. And second rule: if you reuse an "air hole" you will be stomped immediately. The rats are dumb, I know. But it was already 4 pm on Sunday and I didn't have enough time left to make them smarter. I am thinking about adding some AI / A* path finding later on.
I like the game. It is simple but very enjoyable. Good job.
Really well done! This has all sorts of potential. Keep at it!
It was quite fun to play, didn't get the concept of getting air at first. Looking back at it I was quite dumb not thinking about that haha. I like the mechanics, graphics are a bit too square imo, but that fits the game I guess haha.
Yeah, game about moles, like my! :]
Simple idea but I have a good fun with it, and than... I was trodden xD Good work.
Pretty fun little game. The boot made me smile the first time it came down. :) It's a pity the rats don't have any pathfinding, because this game would really benefit from having them start following you. I never had any difficulty avoiding them. What if they spawned nearby any of the remaining worms and could dig their own tunnels, so you had to get close to them?
Very fun!
The only thing I would have liked would be some alert that signals me that I'm about to run out of O2. :)
A bit laggy in firefox. Maybe adding some enemy that'll attack or harm you or your worms will add more fun to the game. :)
Nice and straightforward integration of theme into the gameplay -- made it easy to instantly pick up and play. Had fun for a few levels but ran into some slowdown on Chrome, unfortunately.
Got to level 17
Simple, charming yet fun game!
Very fun game. I really enjoyed the concept and it was quite thrilling as it gradually got harder. Needs music and more variety later on but is very good. Brilliant job!
Thanks for all the feedback! I'm planning on a post LD version with better graphics, more hazards, intelligent rats(!) and some background music! I'm also considering an Android version of the game. And once more thanks for playing and rating!
Nice! It lagged somewhat in Firefox.
