Default Hedgewars

Hedgewars is a free worms Armageddon clone. I came across it some time ago, and whilst the graphics are horrible, the gameplay is spot on, it plays and FEELS exactly like the old worms games, and if you were a fan, you will know how important that "feel" is.

Anyway, I loved the game, but hated the graphics, so I offered to help them out and develop the game graphically for them. So here I am working on it, and planning to post some images here for critique, if anyone's interested in doing so.


Here is how the game looked originally:

If these direct links don't work, you can see them all here: http://www.hedgewars.org/screenshots.html


And here is how it's looking after my makeover:

What do you think?

I'll be adding more content here soon if anyone shows interest.


Also, if you feel like trying the game out, www.hedgewars.org

Your graphics are waaaay better than the originals. How long do you think it'll take for you to redo everything?

That really looks a labour of love. I loved worms, so I think I'll give this one a go some time soon.
