Proceduraly-animated AI worm

Here’s the project https://makecode.com/_51W5r98m2RU4
I used riknoll’s useful arcade-state-transitions extension. Still working on it currently and I wanted to here other coder’s ideas.

press A to smile (decreases aggressiveness. increases mood)
press B to frown (decreases mood. increases aggressiveness)
press MENU to see stats of worm

Let me know what you think!

woah this is so cool!!I reccomend trying to increase the worm thickness as it’s abit gappy sometimes. Also i think making tilemap collisions for it could be cool so it has a place to be in

Adding tilemaps is a great idea! I also think it should be thicker. I’ll be working on that next! Thanks!

I added the following:

  1. Health
  2. A* path finding
  3. Thicker worm
  4. 3 different tilemaps
  5. More AI!

If you treat the worm good, it will play with you and sometimes give you food.
If you treat the worm bad, it will attack you or just not care and walk away.

now turn it into a horror game, where the worm is only agressive towards you (using 2.5D extention. pure fear)

Tip: whenever the worm coils up, hide behind a corner, as it is about to lunge at you

It doesn’t look very wormy anymore, but is cool and kinda scary when the worm is angry!
