Evolver Worm by Kamala

[raw]
made by Kamala for LD24 (COMPO)
This weekend has been a whole lot of fun!
Hope it has been the same for you.

The game is about a little worm on a quest to find his mate.
Along the way he finds crystals that evolve his abilities.

I realized that this would probably be an idea that had
already been done - but I wanted to pick something simple
that I could finish in the 48 hours.

Looking forward to next time already!

Thanks for looking

It was moderately fun. Getting the hot chick at the end, it what made it worth while.

Neat idea -- too bad there were more level -- it was pretty easy.

Is jumping nerfed by design?

I got stucked below the yellow arrow in the third level. Besides that, i like it. simple.

fun but buggy alot of areas where you should fall down you still can walk on, also some of the levels or puzzles were kinda easy cause like you can get a purple crystal to float down in the water but if you just hop to the right you can get the yellow crystal without going in the water.

Short and simple. The platforming mechanics could use some tuning, although if it were any less tricky the game would feel even shorter. Good job!

Cool idea, but you need to decrease the jump and drop speed of the worm

nifty little game, quite cheerful. Sounds are a bit annoying

Is it just me or does the upgrades trigger the sound forever if you just stand on them all the time?

Well, a short and simple game with a well-known principle, but it could be extended to something worthwhile.

The character's hit box it a bit large and the game a bit short. But overall, it was fun!

The jumping sound made my brain cry, apart from that it is a fun little game :D

Maybe you could try pixel art? It would look better :)
Overall, good game :D

I had fun!
It was not very polished (some collisions) but I guess it's ok :)

Congratulations!

It was ok. The sound seems to be a bit borked or are these intentional? Cool idea, though :)

Not bad - a little too simple but the idea is there. Good work.

I liked the game, but I thought it'll be longer. I also didn't like the jumping. It was way too fast.

Not bad, short and sweet. The sounnd was a tad grating whenever you jumped or collected a power-up though.

Chalenging and fun to play! Really enjoyed it. Perfect longevity as well. What i would fix is collision detection as from time to time hero behaves strange. Overally good job!

I liked the gameplay and the character graphic. It would be cool to have more levels!

The space bar didn't make me jump every time for some reason?

Yay, I have earned the right to mate! Simple, but fun enough. The gameplay has some potential, infortunately there's too few levels here to really show it off.

It was pretty great! The controls were a bit unpolished feeling, but I got a grasp of it and finished. The power ups could have stood out more, as the first level's yellow on baby blue background took me a bit to notice. One thing that happened on the first couple levels was that the keyboard input from the previous level continued and I instantly went off the edge of the screen. Well done overall! :)

Cute & fun game. I liked the different skills the crystals gave you.

Nice little game!
Yet sounds are a bit annoying, try making'em not that high-pitched and glitchy next time, please :)
