Wurmus unleashedHi folks!
I'm excited to announce that Wurmus is now available for Windows, Linux, and Steam Deck. Wurmus is an arcade game originally developed for GMTK Jam 2021 and BlindJam2. In it you join a playground game which resembles Snake. This release finally brings it to Steam with a large number of enhancements, including remastered graphics, improved AI, and haptic feedback.
Enjoy!
You may also enjoy
If you enjoyed Wurmus, then you may be interested in my main project: Periphery Synthetic EP. In this chill metroidvania experience, you pilot an upgradable exosuit and explore a musical solar system. Although it's much larger in scope than Wurmus, their DNA shares a passion for synthesized sounds, procedural generation, and inclusivity.

[ 2023-10-16 17:25:36 CET ] [ Original post ] Wurmus is a non-traditional snake-like which rewards creative movement, spatial awareness, and risk management. It's best experienced with a gamepad and headphones.
A different breed of Snake
Outrun, outsmart, and eat your opponents. Move backwards, strafe sideways, and turn freely. Collect power-ups which taunt, instill fear, and grant stability.
Improve your high score
Earn points for captures and longevity. Purposely lose encounters—and manage the ensuing chaos—to pad your highest score yet.
An accessible experience
Wurmus provides high visual contrast, binaural audio cues, and screen reader support. Its graphics can be toggled off to be enjoyed with audio alone.
