Screenshot 2025-04-20 210734.png This was such a wonderful game! Really loved the intro comic, I felt very invested in my wamps! NO APPLES ALLOWED >:(. Enjoyed making the simple decisions about how I wanted to upgrade, focusing more on digging, worms, or passive boosts. So glad there was a keep playing button, because my only wish was that it was longer!
fantastic game, the only thing i'd change for a fully fledged game (besides length obviously) would be the upgrade mechanic, a little messy.
A nice little management game, it took me about 314 seconds the first time when I was learning the game, then 142 seconds the second time around. I do wish there was something antagonistic to play against, I didn't see anything that provided setbacks. The option to keep playing is nice, and while things get overpowered with the upgrades real quick, I ran out of upgrades as I hit the level cap and I realized I should've used those upgrades to summon a lot more worms as there were still 868 apples left.
The art is cute; simple but effective. The music was probably too dramatic for the gameplay, but it still set a tone. Nice work!
Fabulous! Very nice to play, II had a great time playing your game, congrats! :smile: For me, that's almost a perfect score!
Absolutely LOVED the intro :joy: pure gold Liked the epic music that reminded you that this was not just a game for the wamps :laughing: Very cool gameplay, the first time around I was wondering if it was too easy, but then trying to beat the game as fast as possible ends up being quite a challenge! My lowest time was around 220s and I still felt like I made some lame choices lol. Thanks a lot!!
Guess these wamps will never figure out how gravity works. Loved the hilarious intro and story! :smile: Also very fun game. Wished it was a bit easier to notice when you can choose a new update and maybe some buildings could be a bit better explained, but it was cool to notice all of the sudden that there is a housing mechanic! Also complement to your kids for the art, looks very charming!
This was really fun! I pushed the button to keep playing after the first tree was defeated, eventually all the buttons disappeared, I might have had too many wamps.
Excellent work!
Lovely that the kids are a big part of this game! This game reminds me of Lemmings in so many good ways! Great work! :D
Very fun game! I had to scramble my last worms but they could not eat the last apples. Definitely a well thought-of strategy game! Nice that your kids are involved in game dev the process! Screenshot 2025-04-23 145800.png
I love how you can use the good-old Minecraft alpha ladder technique, placing a ladder only every second block.

Really cool game! I enjoyed it a lot and played through a few apple trees until I mined away literally the entire map. The upgrade system makes it very satisfying (although I didn't find it first, maybe some better visual indication could help). Some small issue: Later in the game, the upgrade menu started to disappear and the text on the top-right box flickered.
Excellent work, albeit tooltips on the building buttons would have gone a long way.
Really fun game I am definitely coming back to play again, but it really needs a better explanation as to what each object does. I know they have a bit of an explanation under the upgrade, but I still found myself really confused for a bit and it would have been nice to read more an explanation of how the game works in the description.
Great cute and funny game, I really liked it. Great idea and plot. Funny worms and their animation. Unfortunately, I did not have sound in the built-in version. I recommend uploading the game to itch.io, and also replacing the picture with a piece of a screenshot from the game. Thank you and your children for this game!
