Wormux

  

Have the mascots of your favorite free software titles battle it out in the Wormux arena using dynamite, grenades, baseball bats and other bazookas...

Exterminate your opponent in a 2D environment with toon-style scenery.

Each player controls the team of his choice (penguin, gnu, firefox, wilber,...) and must destroy his adversary using more or less casual weapons.

Although a minimum of strategy is required to vanquish, Wormux is pre-eminently a "convivial mass murder" game where, turn by turn, each member of each team attempts to produce a maximum of damage to his opponents.

Wormux is free (under GPL license) and free (no cash).

Wormux 0.9.0 is out!

Previously named 0.8.6, this Wormux is good enough to be released as 0.9.0

Thanks a lot to Mikko Vartiainen for the port and to Jay Montano for the video.

As you probably know, the Wormux team has been confronted to an important bug with the windows package of the 0.8.5 release, which was avoiding the use of the network games. This bug has been fixed, and the package is now updated.
