upworm
A downloadable game for Windows, macOS, and Linux
UPWORM is a physics challenge platformer. Guide your worm up the sculptures, can you reach the top?
TIPS: This is a challenging experience but it can be completed. A two axis controller is a bit easier than using the keyboard. For the harder jumps think of the worm as a spring that must be coiled.
Music by me, selfsame, made mainly this week for #looptober.

Absolutely loved it! Just the right amount of challenging AND fun! This should be a full game, honestly! Maybe with multiple levels and things. :) It was the first game I tried out in this compilation: Of course, I didn't make it very far, but it was incredibly fun to try out! If you're wondering if it's worth your time, DEFINITELY!!
Based linux port
hey has anyone officially uploaded a speedrun of upworm i looked on speedrun.com and youtube and couldnt find anything
This is shockingly tough. A good challenge for anyone with the patience and skills, which is not necessarily me haha
I'm struggling a little to understand the controls, I would think that you just have control of both ends, eezy peezy. If I hook one end, I feel I can use it to hold myself while swinging up my backside. For some reason I can't? It's like I only have the strength to move one end at a time, which I'm guessing might be a choice to increase the difficulty.
It doesn't necessarily seem bad, just tough. I'm slowly getting the mechanic and had a few good runs, made it to the final statue to the left before moving up to the next level.
Might give this a few more tries, see if I can get a handle on it.
i literaly couldnt make it past the first one lol
Had a great time, albeit frustrating time lol! Hope you enjoy the video!
great let's play, thanks for posting!
whats upworm
I downloaded the game but now it's a zip file. And I don't know how to open it. Mind helping me out?
Hi yes open or extract the zip file to play the game, or you can get https://itch.io/app and play it there, it works like Steam
go to folders right click it and it will say extract all press exstract all
it went something like this: 〰@〰ᵕ〰n〰u@〰 and it was very good
the worm
this game is so damn hard to play like im stuck on 0 meters
can you add cheats like flying?
The worms move so realistically that it sent chills down my spine as I hate bugs, but I had a lot of fun playing! It took me a while to get the hang of the controls, and it took me a little over an hour to clear the game, but I managed to finish it. I made a video of it so you can see how happy I was!
this is a great video, thank you for playing!
