Kickstarter is out now!

I agree with the retract mechanic. Think holding to be faster might help!

Coder looks handsome too :roll:

In the game Go Go Mile Smile shown here in the youtube video.

The mechanic is reduced down to one button. You extend your worm with the d-pad and 1 press of the button will rapidly retract your worm all the way.

Maybe you could make the A button retract the worm once if pressed and if you hold down the A button it keeps retracting and then make the B button retracts the worm all the way rapidly.

Or you can switch the A and B buttons to however would work better, but you get the idea.

That is my 2 cents. :)

Oo cool, iv not seen this game before, quite similar. I do think, tapping or holding is a good solution and well look into it. I was hoping to use the other button for other reasons int he future, like activated abilities.
