I won with like 21/25 ants attached, hard game! Very intuitive controls. Audio was not my cup of tea but all in all well done :)

Great game!! =D pros: you play as a warm in space eat gems procedural physics is cool! the control is quite responsive! cons: ants

Impressive! I like the artstyle and BGM, they suit each other and makes me feel relax!

Great game for Ludum Dare! I felt a real thrill! The controls are intuitive, which makes the game accessible to everyone. The art style and music complement each other perfectly, creating a relaxing atmosphere. Although the game is difficult, especially with the ants, this only adds to the interest!

Beautiful choice of colors and artstyle in general! Looks very cosy and warm. And plays well. Would be great to grab the cursor properly, but that's no biggie. I hope I was a decent worm.

@dzejpi thank you! 😊 you should be able to prevent the cursor issue in the WebGL build by hitting the fullscreen button in the lower right corner

Wow this is so much fun!! I love the planet graphics and moving through it as the worm is so satisfying! Overall this is such an adorable game I loved playing it!

Great game! I really loved the idea, the gameplay and visuals. Reminds me of Astroneer, or just looking for diamond in Minecreaft. I do have tiny remarks but keep in mind these are just small details that were not very bothering: - Cursor should be hidden and locked to the center of the screen (like in first person or third person games) - We can often see the breaking geometry in a way we maybe shouldn't (... but that would be a nightmare to fix) - It is a bit hard sometimes to tell the depth in the scene (maybe a matter of textures/shading/lighting) - Missed opportunity to make the planet a giant apple, I think it would make the theming a little better

Once again these are tiny suggestions, but my overall experience was awesome, so congrats!

@thomas-bringer thank you so much for your detailed feedback! yes, I think the visible breaking geometry is fixable but would require more time than I had. you're right, it should TOTALLY be an apple! maybe in the future :D

the ants got me :( I really like the entire vibe both music and graphics. The controls were a little bit difficult to get the hang of!

I loved getting to consume!

love the colors and audio esp the sfx when you dig into the planet. Controls took a little getting used but they are fun

Really appreciate seeing voxels in a webgl game. Great audio and graphics style too.

worm mayor has my vote 🫡

Charming music, out-of-this-world vibes. Love it!

Third try and I finally won, yay :) Screenshot 2024-10-12 195151.png

First try there was only one gem left but then the ants got me. Second try I dug through so much of the planet that all the ants were right in the middle. I made a wrong move and then they got me. All of them :cry:

This game feels so satisfying to play. Don't know how else to describe it. Great colour palette, chill music. I had fun :)
