BENDYWORM is a platformer with a twist: the entire world bends and twists around you as your progress through the level. Why? Because you're inside of a gigantic worm, and worms are bendy.

Play it here: https://bauxite.itch.io/bendyworm (Windows and Linux only for now)

The game is made for Github Game Off 2021.

You can watch a video of the game here.

(note - only keyboard input prompts are shown in game; gamepad button prompts are missing but they still work)

If you want to build the game from source, read on.

The game is a Godot 3.3.3 project, so you can just download Godot 3.3.3 and open the project in the godot folder. The game requires a Rust submodule though, which needs to be compiled separately. Here's how:

1. Install Rustup
2. Go to the rust folder in the project and run cargo build --release in the command line
3. After compilation finishes, copy the file rust/target/release/bendyworm_rust.dll to the godot folder. (on Linux the file will be called libbendyworm_rust.so)

Now it should run.

The game's soundtrack is available on my Bandcamp: https://kenophos.bandcamp.com/album/bendyworm

Press [ESC] to open the pause menu, then toggle "Fullscreen" to run the game in windowed mode.

In the main game, press [ESC] to open the pause menu. Then toggle "Fullscreen" to run the game in windowed mode, and reduce the size of the window. This makes the game run at a lower resolution, which should increase performance on lower-end GPUs.

Alternatively, if you want to play the game in fullscreen mode anyway, you can reduce your desktop resolution by right clicking the desktop and selecting "Display Settings" (e.g. if you're on a 1080p screen, you can drop down the resolution to 720p and it should run much faster)

After watching the credits, enter the main game again, press [ESC] to open the pause menu, and then select "Delete Save and Start Over".

• Gamepad input prompts are missing, only keyboard input prompts are shown (see above for gamepad controls)

If you like the game, consider buying me a coffee:

Additionally, you may enjoy my previous game, Meteorite, as well.
