It's a free Worms clone.  With hedgehogs.  And giant birds.

It's fun. Although in my first game they kept telling me how much I suck. :(

Okay, so, today this girl I know-Lauren, just took a sudden dis-interest in talking to me. Is she just on her period or something?

I saw this mentioned in a magazine in India, for some reason.  Thought it looked exactly like Worms, just with worse graphics.  And hedgehogs (which, for some reason, just aren't as awesome as worms).

Never tried it though, so I can't comment on its actual gameplay merit.

Watching the official trailer was worth it just to hear their version of Bohemian Rhapsody.  Will have to check the game out now.

That's exactly what it is.

But it's free and has an active online component, so it's all good!

HEDGEWARS IS AWESOME.

I love it to bits.

I go by Traveller on there, you'll probably see me around sometime.  :D

Let's see, hellish hand grenade, watermellon bomb.... I think I might actually like this better than the original worms... although I really hate the victory pose, the lolface isn't really very appealing to me.

Yea I was playing this and thinking "What a high quality rip-off"
I wish they would move in a SLIGHTLY different direction from original worms

They're working on different weapons.  Me, I'm quite happy to have an exactly the same direction ripoff.  The differences in weapons are ones that I find quite pleasing at least.

As for the awesomeface, the first time I saw someone use a cake, I just about fell out of my chair.

I like that it's a direct ripoff. I want to play Worms, not a Worms knock-off trying to be something it isn't.
