Worm Pass
Worm Pass
This game was created as a submission to the Mix and Game Jam. They challenged us to recreate a favorite mechanic of ours, but in a different dimensional perspective. Snake Pass is a 3d Platformer where you crawl around like a snake, winding through bamboo and buildings. I wanted to give that a try here on my favorite engine, Pico 8, minus one dimension.
In this game you take control of a pink linear hero, Wurm, and must escape an underground labyrinth. Control his head with the arrow keys and boost with Z when you need an extra kick. Squirm and wriggle around tight corners and ridges, thrash and slam, whatever it takes!
Thanks to NeHe Gamedev for the great tutorial on rope physics. This project was 5 hours game, and 12 hours physics engine. I really appreciate the expertise. You can find them here http://nehe.gamedev.net/tutorial/rope_physics/17006/.
Note: This game was designed to be very difficult, I wish you the best of luck!

Beat it in 13 min and 11 sec. Very odd to get used to the controls, but once your figure out his movement, its surprising how fast you can get around!
Close, I managed 16 mins 12 seconds.
Wow! This game looks really beautiful. I cant believe you made it in under 48 hours. Music is amazing . It has simple but adictive mechanics and it feels awesome. Too bad its that hard, maybe a easy mode would help. I hope you will continue on making more great games like this one.
Btw check my game Three Dimensions too.
