About

aWorm is a single- or two-player worm game for the Classic Mac, built by Toni Laaveri under the Serpent Software banner and released as $10 shareware in 1999. It updates the Nibbles formula with thirty-plus levels of dot-eating action, colorful graphics, and stereo sound effects.Sam and SalPlayers guide worms named Sam and Sal around walled play fields, gobbling dots while avoiding the level geometry and, in two-player mode, each other. Difficulty ramps up as you progress and again on repeated playthroughs.Solo or shared keyboardOne player can run a campaign solo, or two players can share a single Mac keyboard for head-to-head sessions. The control scheme is the classic four-direction snake input, kept deliberately simple.PresentationCompared to plain Nibbles clones, aWorm leans on bright sprite work and stereo audio cues to give each level a distinct feel. The art and sound were a noticeable step up for the late-1990s Mac shareware scene.DistributionThis Info-Mac release is version 1.0.2, posted by tolaave@hotmail.com. As shareware, the unregistered build is fully playable; registration was requested for continued use.
