It plays very similar to Worms Armageddon, in my experience.  It doesn't have exactly the same weapons, only functionally similar ones; I mean, it's not a straight clone, just a veryverysimilar genre title.  You can still rope all over the place and drop dynamite on people, or shotgun them for 25+25 damage, whatever...if you played Worms, it's instantly recognizable.  So what if the Holy Hand Grenade is now a demon bomb.

Also...Similar to Team Fortress 2, this is actually an artillery-themed hat simulator.  Each wormhedgehog on your team can wear their own different little hat!

It's free, and it has a generally thriving online community.  Users can submit their own random map art-sets, which is cool.  And unlike the new Worms game in that other thread, you can have plenty of hedgehogs on the map at once...

But is it better then WA with the beta patches?

[Sowelu]

WA was a rock-solid game.  Not much is going to be better than WA.  But new games sure as hell can be more stable on modern machines, which is nice...and hey, community content.

[cappstv]

The new beta patch works on most machines, hmm, i shall try this later.

Posted this before, tried (albeit barely) to get a semi-regular Bay12 game going, failed utterly.

Ok, I played this game last night and it was able to capture WA's random lucky moments and charm.
So I fell in love with it, and its hats.

Apparently the next version has a portal gun.  Hot damn.

[Apple Master]

Downloaded.

[eclipsetail]

still learning the controls, but real cool so far.
and the computers in training seem to have very professional aiming.

It is very finicky. But still fun.

Me and Hugehead were playing earlier. If you want to play, drop in the steam community chat room.

Watched the first Dev video on their page. Got to 1:10, paused video.

Portal gun. Next version. Working awesome.

Downloading. Never realized how much I missed WA. 

[cappstv]

My WA experience really pays off when i play online.

[rickvoid]

Gah! How the hell do I jump?

[Hugehead]

Enter and backspace, you can use backspace twice to doublejump.

Excellent, thanks.
