The player give an artillery piece a shot angle and shot power, and try to hit the opponent, taking into account wind effects. The player and the opponent exchange these shots in a turn-based fashion. The game puts the player in command of a team of up to eight worms, which can move around the landscape (one at a time), using many types of weapons to try to dispatch the enemy, from bazookas to mini-guns to exploding sheep. In some situations, the worms can also jump, swing by rope, and descend with a parachute.</strong></p> <p><strong>As of 2002, updates have been handled by an authorized community member named Deadcode, who was joined in 2006 by CyberShadow. The two have removed many bugs and glitches, improved game stability and compatibility for Windows operating systems that have been released along the way, added new features (more resolutions, expanded options and settings, auto-recorded match replays, full PNG support for map importing...) and integrated WormKit, an extension framework for the game which allows for easier modding. These updates have been available from Team17's servers and are included by default in subsequent digital releases.</strong></p> <p><strong><button class="share-button__button"><span class="svg-wrapper"><svg xmlns="http://www.w3.org/2000/svg" fill="none" class="icon icon-share" viewbox="0 0 13 12"><path stroke="currentColor" stroke-linecap="round" stroke-linejoin="round" d="M1.625 8.125v2.167a1.083 1.083 0 0 0 1.083 1.083h7.584a1.083 1.083 0 0 0 1.083-1.083V8.125"></path><path fill="currentColor" fill-rule="evenodd" d="M6.148 1.271a.5.5 0 0 1 .707 0L9.563 3.98a.5.5 0 0 1-.707.707L6.501 2.332 4.147 4.687a.5.5 0 1 1-.708-.707z" clip-rule="evenodd"></path><path fill="currentColor" fill-rule="evenodd" d="M6.5 1.125a.5.5 0 0 1 .5.5v6.5a.5.5 0 0 1-1 0v-6.5a.5.5 0 0 1 .5-.5" clip-rule="evenodd"></path></svg></span></button></strong></p>
