[raw]
made by lasagnegames for LD29 (JAM)
WARNING: Contains pulsing lights in some sections.

Controls:

- Mouse to move.
- [SPACEBAR] to rise to the surface.

Your Worm is hungry, follow the pulsing waves and rise up from beneath the surface to feed!

Some things are not edible however, so don't turn everything in to worm food just because you can!

Interesting idea, but I feel like there's more that you could do with it. Are you planning on making a post-jam release? I'd like to see what you did with more time with it.

Okay, well that fit the jam well. It was a different spin of a game than I was expecting, so decent innovation.

In the end though, for me it comes down to whether a game is fun or not... and yours was not. The audio was annoying as well.

Well, they do say that there is only a fine line between genius and madness. I think this might be the latter though.

Would have liked more to eat. Would have wanted to know what was going on. Now I can't die in peace, only in pieces. For I have made myself a worm.

Super strange! The mechanic seems pretty interesting, it could make for a cool mobile game with some more polish.

crazy idea, paint he background of underground of brown to make the effect of emerge better better, even paint some rocks and some effects when you rise. Happy music.

Great music!

I couldn't figure out what I was supposed to do and it wasn't that much fun to play.

Aside from being the weirdest game I've seen so far, this idea is pretty cool, and I'd love to see a game more fleshed out around the idea of stalking targets underground and popping up to get them. I'm not completely sure what I was supposed to eat or not, though.

haha, weird in the best possible meaning!
I like the graphics, the original game mechanic, the sound effects and music.
Just really funny!
