Hyperwurm is back!

About this game

Four different types of challenges:

🐍 Growth Challenge

Keep your worm alive by constantly moving 🐾, collecting food, and avoiding the poisonous one. Some stages include boss duels where the fastest eater wins.

Special Rule for the First Stage: Survive until the CD (cooldown) runs out.

🧱 Maze Escape

Clear every piece of food in a labyrinth before space runs out.

Fuel Hunt

Collect scattered fuel cans while navigating enemy‑patrolled corridors.

🏍️ Corner Combat

Trap enemy worms without touching any corner segments.

🖱️ + ⌨️ or 🎮 INPUT:

4 Directions:

⬆️⬅️⬇️➡️ WASD or Arrow Keys

(Hold direction keys for Turbocharger 🛞)

or

🖱️ Left_Mouse_Button click & hold (target location)

or

🖱️ hold Right_Mouse_Button for Turbocharger 🛞

🤖 Switch between four AI Assist Modes (F1–F4) at any time.

Each mode controls your worm differently

... from "greedy pathfinding" to full "Hamiltonian cycles" or even a "low IQ NEAT neural‑network brain 🧠".

Mix AI and manual control to survive longer and push your score higher.

🏋️ F5 trains a "NEAT neural network" (NOTE: High CPU usage!)

🙊 F8 to Cheat (skip a stage; but also resets the Highscore...)

✅ ENTER = Confirm

🪫 ESC = Quit
