How does your game fit the theme?
As speed increases, the movement of the worm requires the player to loop around obstacles. If you want to get really pretentious you could also say that worms represent the circle of life but really we just liked the worm.

The main game is quite fun in an arcadey way and controlling the worm feels quite satsfying at the higher speeds with having to quickly weave between obstacles and properly managing your speed.
though once you've played a handfull of times you're pretty much done with the game, and some variety & extra things to do while you're navigating the ground would definetly help with replayability and interest.

the visual style and it's 3d assets are quite pleasant, and is something that works perfectly for this game, though i wish there was some kind of sounds or music to help alleveate the general emptiness, only bug i experienced is that the scaling on 1440p monitors doesnt work correctly and it mainatains it's 1080p window size and sticks to the top left corner.

overall, a nice simple arcade game, though lacking in replayability past the initial tries.

Fun and simple idea, and nicely executed! Also in some ways brings back childhood memories of playing snake, even though the gameplay is different :) Movement feels good, although a bit too slow at the start though for my liking! I was kind of ready to move on once I reached about 300pts because I felt there wasn't much changing, but at like 700pts or so it became really fun because you were more in control and more active a lot of time instead of just waiting. I'd say you could easily bump up the starting speed to emphasize the strengths of your gameplay :)

Great work!

Firstly I love the worms design with the eyes and goggles it gives it a lot of charm.

and gameplay wise though the game takes a bit to get going at a challenging speed, once it starts its really fun to maneuver your way through obstacles

also the way the worm moves is really satisfying is really satisfying to watch great job :):):)!
