Wow, this is one project I'm very excited about.
I've always thought about it but to see someone invest time end tallent into it...it's an app I'll gladly support.

Will watch this closely,
Good Luck

I don't care if it costs me $20. If it's good quality then I'm in!!! Worms single handedly almost cost me my college career and if this is just as good who's to say I won't lose my job!

[ColPhorbin]

does anyone know the name of the song playing in the preview video? or does anyone have a link to that app called Listen that came out a looong time ago which acted like the Verizon Song ID thing. if i could get that program i might be able to hold my phone to my computer speakers and get the song name with that. i believe erica sadun made it(?)....i just figured out the melody on guitar this would be a great/funny song to play while someone is adjusting their equipment in some way, or in the background if someone is making an announcement for the bar or really anything that results in downtime during a show....the game looks cool though

[Bad2049]

Nice looking game there. I can't wait to play it.

I wonder if Team 17 knows they should be sueing someone?

[Merriadok]

Yeah I was wondering the same thing. I absolutely love worms and play it all the time still. I saw this and instantly thought lawsuit, especially after they said they are wanting to sell it on the appstore. Someone's gotta have permission, or some large cajones to even attempt selling such a blatent copy. However I am incredibly stoked to play.

that is AWESOME! i love and miss the worms games! if this is free, i'll definitely be downloading... and if it costs something, i'll definitely be downloading.

All graphics in hedgewars are completely original and drawn by me, the style is very similar to the worms style, that's because that's the style we were originally going for, however all the graphics are original works. I'm not a 2d artist (3d is my thing) but I wanted to do this as a learning process and so I stuck quite closely to the worms "cartoon" style. I do however take it as a huge compliment that you seem to have confused some of the graphics for original worms graphics ;P


Also, with regards to the app store, I'll be speaking to some team 17 people regarding that, but as far as a free homebrew release goes, they have no issue with it, infact I was play testing Hedgewars quite recently with one of the people working on worms armageddon

I suppose you have to remember that worms is basically a take on even older games, scorched earth and so forth, so I'm not sure we're really infringing on their IP. But either way I will talk about it. I'd hate to step on toes.

So the app store release may or may not go ahead, based on what I can work out, but a homebrew release is no problem, and team 17 know about the game, hell some time ago I posted info about it on the team 17 forum and asked for criticisms/advice

Again I'm glad you guys are looking forwards to this, if you have any suggestions for the control scheme, anything you'd like to suggest in general, any criticisms or concerns, do voice them!

Close, it's baby elephant walk

[billchase2]

wow, no kidding? haha, nice job man! if you need any beta testers, i just so happen to have an inbox you can PM... ;-)

[auburnguy32]

It looked really slow and boring to me, maybe I'm missing the point but it didn't look like much fun. I thought the graphics were great and will still probably give it a try, but we'll see.

Wormux anyone, headgewars is a clone that to me looks very poorly made, compared to wormux which is opensource runs on macs linux and pcs themeable and contains about 24maps preloaded
