Very cool. Though I'm having trouble getting the hang of being an earthworm, much less one that can climb.

Hard but very fun game. I really like the level design!

I really like Godot, so it's great to see that you've got Lisp working with it! And 3D too!

Made it above 200m once - no idea how much further it will go but I intend to find out. This is a really fun game!

I love this.

It took a fair few tries to get the hang of it, but eventually it totally clicked and I became the worm.

Love the variety of music, kept it fresh.

this game as some "getting over it" vibes which is clearly inspired but oh man this is definitely a banger ! It's hard and challenging I love it. The controls are weird simple weird enough to make it really interesting. It as speedrun potential. Really well down. I hope you will turn this into a finish game to sell.

The movement simulation in this game was real fun, that poor worm! Definitely the most creative game I’ve played in a LONG time.

I managed to get him up a few statues, but was having a hard time differentiating between the front and back of the worm. I found myself frequently moving the wrong end at inopportune moments, resulting in the poor worm plummeting to their death in the infinite blue void :(

If you love walking simulators, you'll love worm simulators! I flailed helplessly for awhile trying to figure out how to get  my poor little worm onto the statue after the foot, but I couldn't do it. I can see how making the worm act sort of like a spring is the way to go, but I just can't get my hands to make it happen. I wish the game would automatically reset when I inevitably go into freefall after sliding off an ancient bust.
