Glad you enjoyed it.\r<br\/>I guess the difficulty curve is a bit wonky, now that i think about it. Good to hear someone else managed to finish it. :)"},{"author_name":"Zillix","author_uid":"2460","time":"Dec 20, 2010 @ 5:42pm","epoch":1292866620,"text":"I'm glad you posted screenshots of the additional gameplay, or I would have just thought that the entire game was like the first level.  Nice variety of game mechanics!  I was amused that I could stick myself to the ceiling in the second level."},{"author_name":"ThatSnail","author_uid":"3051","time":"Dec 20, 2010 @ 7:33pm","epoch":1292873280,"text":"Man I really suck at this game.

I loved the surprise on the opening screen. The first level was too hard; I almost gave up thinking the game was just that and it would just keep getting harder. It's a good thing you posted the screenshots. The second part (launch jumping) was probably my favorite, though everything after the first bubble level I passed the first time. Would have liked to see some more challenges in the jumping levels."},{"author_name":"Epskampie","author_uid":"3516","time":"Dec 26, 2010 @ 5:28am","epoch":1293340980,"text":"Fair criticism all, the first level is indeed way too hard, had problems finishing it myself last time i tried. :)\r<br\/>As far as the discovery theme goes: originally I intended you to 'discover' all of the worms innards after you get eaten. (like in one of those educational videos where they visit all the organs) Somewhere along the way it turned into just a series of minigames however."},{"author_name":"localcoder","author_uid":"1113","time":"Dec 27, 2010 @ 10:58pm","epoch":1293490380,"text":"Wow, this was painfully hard but I kept trying and I'm glad I did.

It's a nice collection of mini games, but is kinda fun to see the next stage.
