Dos, split screen, snake like game with powerups

Post by Tuki_bird »

I don't remember many details for the game but what I do remember...

You had to start the game in single player or multiplayer and to switch had to close the game

It was a top down snake style game where you gained length by eating ladybugs

You could drop the last section of your tail off in the world as a bomb

You had power ups on the map for speed and bigger bombs tunneling to random parts of the map I believe they were hidden under rocks you had to blow up

To win you had to destroy the head by blowing it up or eating it from the side if you hit behind the head any sections behind where you bit would be released as ladybugs for either player to eat

I remember either the exe or bat file name was "worm" ... but NOT that side view battle game

If I remember correctly it ran on both our 486 and 386 machines

Player 1 used awsd and space
player 2 used ijkl and shift or enter

I've been looking for this game on and off for a few years now and no luck yet, ANY help would be appreciated 🙏 🙂
