I've had this on my PalmPilot for a little while now. Probably one of the best games I've got on it. If anyone can't find the binary and would like it, I'll be happy to e-mail it to you.

Hey guys and gals,

While I love the community feeling here, a little competition in sport is healthy. It helps funnel off competitive feelings so that no one gets hurts in real life. So with that said, can some of you guys and gals please give me a little competition with this worm thing. You're making me think I'm the best video game player in the world. 2448...can you handle it?! LOL

p.s. Me talking sh!t is in good fun so don't write back telling me what a jerk I am. Kick me in the butt and laugh at me on the way up. Then we'll go have a beer and it will all be good. That's what sportsmanship is. Being fully competitive, but not hurtful or resentful. It's something that has been lost in our era of political correctness.

HEHE, I have known of this game for a while now.
I am actually trying to recreate using OpenGL for my programming course.

I think my highest score was like 2100.

That tunnel is getting insanely small! I'm not playing this anymore ! The worm is nerfed ! And there's too much lag ! And gravity sucks !

!

I took the day off today to work on my TubettiWorld project, and I end up spending 90 minutes on that silly worm game :-)

And best of all: there isn't the word "game" in the URL, so I can play at work thru the firewall. Everybody doing games online should take it into account.

As Dragos said, great one. My score is pitiful, don't bother.

This game is fun as hell. Who's gonna Torque it now that T2D is out?
