Our take on WORMHOLE
The page gives equal weight to the large level count and the palette collection, while the central activity remains an arcade loop of eating, attacking, navigating hazards, and replaying stages for leaderboard scores.
What is WORMHOLE?
Control a colossal worm in an arcade game set among the stars, consuming planets and creatures while firing, dashing, and triggering blasts.
The primary campaign offers over 100 levels built by hand, and marathon mode turns chosen stages into survival challenges. Dash, Claw, and Yeehaw provide distinct attack options, while perks can be combined to add effects during a run. Wormholes let the worm bypass hazards, restore energy, or reach another target. Global and friends-only leaderboards track scores. Its visual style uses monochrome imagery influenced by early arcade titles, with over 60 colour schemes available to unlock. The audio includes more than 40 newly made songs, covering styles from eerie cosmic goth to fast-paced gabber.
