Healthy dose of suffering! Had fun with it.
Loved the bird sounds too - they be like bullying the player!
this game is evil… I love it!
It was a fun game, but it's too punishing, if you die you have to start at the beginning?
This game needs checkpoints.
Played live in vc- won't elaborate much because you were in the livestream too :D
Here's the clip though:
Awesome you added in controller support, the game is short & sweet too, like the retro style as well.Well done for the short timeframe too.
The gravity was gravity-ing! The level design was great so was the art style, as others said, the controls were a bit hard and dying was quite punishing.
The concept was
very originaland well... JUMPING BUGS ARE SCARY!Good game! Especially considering how long it took.
The platforming feels quite nice overall, but would love some of the usual "ease of controls" things like coyote time etc. The thing I guess I didn't like the most was dying once and get sent back all the way to the beginning. A checkpoint system could have been nice.
Arts is fun too, even if it's simple. I kinda really like the worm dance at the end haha.
Good job overall!
got my worm at the end! the camera struggles to follow the worm sometimes when i fall but the platforming feels very nice!
I felt fun while playing! I struggled pretty much at the begginning. The game is well constructed, has good art style, good platforming. Awesome job!
Was interesting to play! btw art style reminds me to the "tomb of the mask"
Okay, so - you do not understand how much I adore this worm sprite. Those are the best 4 pixels I have seen in my life.
It's a very jumpy little fella, I enjoy the platforming quite a bit, although a bit of coyote time would greatly improve the experience, but yeah otherwise if we ignore this bit it feels nice and snappy to move around, the jumps are pretty tight and fast paced but it's fun to play and it's so cuuuuuuute
Good job! The jump felt a little too nervous but it was nice.
PICO-8 vibes! And under 10 hours is impressive. Precise platforming, a little finicky at times, but overall well made! Nice one!
The art style felt very polished
the worm is pretty funny, the pixel art it's very well done, with nice sounds, and very funny worm animation very original!
Short but sweet. Had quite a bit of fun while playing it!
Very nice! I completed it dying only once, and considering how short the level is, i don't think the game is punishing. With checkpoints this would be too easy and short and without any challenge, so I like it the way it is :)
Awesome graphics, not enough 8 Bit pixel games recently! Game was very punishing with no checkpoints :( well done though!
Fun game. Quite punishing for failure so didnt end up finishing it I still enjoyed it for a bit!
