What is Wormle?

Wormle is an old-school pseudo 3D horror game where you have to escape from the worm who is chasing you. In order to escape, you'll need to hack three doors. 

The graphics is similar to Wolfenstein 3D and Rise of the Triad.


How to Play?

Door hacking is similar to the WORLDLE game: when hacking, you'll need to enter a number combination. If the background of the number is green, it is in the right place, if yellow, the number is present in the code, but somewhere else. If the background turns red, the number is not present in the code.

Use ARROW KEYS to move, SPACE/CRTL to toggle flashlight and NUMBERS to hack a door.


About the Development

I discovered this jam two days before the submission date, so the game is very minimal. The game is made completely with vanilla JS.

I made the JS raycaster "engine" at the beginning of this year as a learning project (haven't touched it for six months, it's still very messy),  tought that it would be cool to try and make a game with it. Within the jam perioud I made the code hacking mini-game, pathfinder for the worm and a loose GUI based implementation of the raycaster sprite renderer (it didn't have a sprite renderer before).
