HILARIOUSS, game is simple enough for me to get, i love the metal soundtrack and the art style suits the game so well
I did fantastic job!
The moment I saw that worm puffing a cigar with rock music blasting, I was like — hell yeah.
Very fun and charismatic! Easy to understand, funny and its fun to see what each weapon does
Holy bait! You managed to get in a BOSS BATTLE! This feels very complete, well done!
the worm really fits the theme well, and the choice of weapons plays the role of difficulty as for me, with the slingshot it was very easy to get through without taking damage, with the fork it is much more difficult
The game is nice, I like the art style and background music, and I think its pretty well balanced, I suggest maybe adding an infinite version? I feel the gameplay is pretty short so maybe an infinite version with a score or just more bosses(and maybe a level system or smth) would be good
win.png An interesting game with beautiful graphics and a variety of weapons. It took me a few tries, but I beat it — with just 10 HP left =)
Realy fun game. The setting is really creative and the sounds are fitting it. I liked the graphics too.
Worm almost Jim))) I was worried for him!
**Really cool entry!** I had a lot of fun experimenting with the four different weapons.
**1st run – Fork:** I didn’t realize (and didn’t read the instructions, oops) that I could swing it, so I got wrecked pretty fast.
**2nd run – Bubbles:** Much easier! I was a bit confused when the weapon upgraded itself — not sure what triggered that? But it was super cool to see multiple versions of the weapon appear. The boss didn’t trigger, though, so I ended up chilling at the bottom for a while. Discovered the swing mechanic during that downtime!
Hard refresh
**3rd run – Stick:** As with the fork, This one felt a bit too hard for me. Didn’t get very far.
**4th run – Slingshot:** Nice and easy! Made it to the final boss and finally scored a victory, Fintastic!
---
**Overall, a very polished and enjoyable game.** You’ve packed in so many great mechanics: - Multiple starting weapons - Unique, named upgrades for each weapon - Visual progression - A final boss encounter
You really check all the boxes!
**Balance-wise,** I think the close-range weapons could use a bit more love. Maybe some knockback on hit to help manage enemies? And possibly fewer enemy bullets to give short-range weapons more room to shine, or make the ranged weapons feel a bit less dominant. Also I see the difference in weapon attack pattern between the fork and the stick, but the two ranged weapons feel less distinct
funny little game, but with good variety of weapons, that u can upgrade) also i love the audio, especially "elevator music" during pause) nicely done and very well polished!
Very funny and tempting game. I liked the graphics, cute fish and funny worm. Interesting idea and cool mechanics. I had fun playing, thank you
Cool game! I won with a stick.
I think the swinging should be more controllable, when I tried swinging I couldn't hit the enemies, and they easily hit me. Once I stopped swinging I easily beat the game.
