My little worm game
A downloadable actual travesty for Windows
This is a little game I made that runs in the terminal.
The game plays like the classic game snake, but instead of being time based, the game is move based.
You start with 20 moves. Every time you move, one move is deducted.
When you eat food, you get some moves replenished based on the distance the food item was away, plus 4. For instance, if the food item spawned 10 tiles away, you would get 14 moves back when eating it.
The game gets interesting when your worm gets very long. You will have to plan ahead, because if you have to wiggle your worm around itself to get your food, you're not taking the optimal route and you will start losing more moves than you gain.
If you want more information, you can read "About.txt" in the game files.
