Controls a bit unwieldy, but it's fun nevertheless.

really really cute! I love that you have the option to use your powers for good or evil, and that the landscape actually changes significantly based on how you behave.
I think it was a little unclear at first *how* I could help the villagers, but once I figured it out I had a great time watching them build up their little settlement.
(I also think it's really adorable how the worm bounces off of objects when it's underground.)

Anything that reminds me of Populous is good in my book.

The game is very addicting. But the Audio is only in one stereo channel, which gets annoying.

@TiByte - oh, that's playing the wrong files! Fixed that.

Really fun. I helped them build a village and then a mass grave to go alongside.

Nice graphics and mechanics, killed a bunch of people, cutted a bunch of trees, built a bunch of houses (and something like a Memorial), broke a bunch of stones and no one never saw the big worm again... don't know my high score thou.

Great choice of monster! Fun little take on a town-builder, and simple controls make it easy to get into.

hehe, it was dificult with the controls at first but when you get used it gets more adictive

It was good. But was the goal to help in the building efforts or kill the people? The graphics are nice and cheerful and the theme was spot on.

Loved the graphics. Not really sure what was going on. Just waited for villagers to appear then jumped out and ate them (if that's not what I'm supposed to be doing, some more explanation would be nice). Audio didn't really suit (but as someone who uses sfxr for my LD games, I'm not necessarily one to talk on that subject).

You should keep working on it and implement new features, this is a pretty cool idea

This was the first game I played this LD, but since we hadn't submitted when I played I couldn't rate.
But anyway, real nice interpretation of the theme! I loved the fact you could help or hinder the villagers. The controls were tight, and the camera worked perfectly. I just wish there was more to do, but I guess you know that already!
