- Worm It Up !
- (c) 1992
-
- Introduction
- ------------
-
- Worm It Up ! is an arcade game where you are a worm. This worm does
- what all the worms in the world do : it looks for food. A little mushroom
- appears somewhere in the screen and you (the worm) are supposed to eat it.
- When you do manage to eat it, your digestive system is so good that you'll
- leave a remembrance of the mushroom that was... Do not try to eat that,
- it's poisonous and you'll die from it. But you can clean it up by spitting
- on it. Spitting on a wall won't do anything. You have a limited amount of
- spitting balls (10), but you can actually collect more when you eat a blinking
- ball that appears once in a while... When you have eaten thirty mushrooms at
- a certain level, a blinking exit will appear in the middle of the screen,
- you can choose to continue eating mushrooms at the same level or when entering
- the blinking exit to pass on to the next level.
-
- For this unregistered version there is a maximum of 5 levels.
-
- To start Worm It Up ! just type 'wormit' at the DOS prompt.
-
- You'll need a VGA to play this baby... If you don't have one, you
- don't know what you're missing !
