Death Worm

Not to be confused with the similarly named game DEATHWORM published by Max Games.
Death Worm is an action game developed by PlayCreek and released on May 19, 2011. It revolves around a giant desert-dwelling monster worm who wants to destroy everything that sets foot in its turf.
Although Flash was discontinued on January 12 2021, Death Worm is still playable through BlueMaxima’s Flashpoint. Death Worm also has a mobile port that heavily expands upon the original Flash version's gameplay.

==Gameplay==
Death Worm contains a campaign consisting of 15 levels that are played back to back. Each level requires you to kill a certain number of enemies (and some levels also have a time limit as well); once this requirement is fulfilled, you move on to the next level. Once you beat a level, you're given the opportunity to upgrade one of the worm's attributes to make it more powerful. Initially, the game's environment only contains harmless prey that you can kill without worry, but as you advance through the game, more dangerous enemies that can actually fight back against you will gradually be introduced, becoming more and more powerful over time. However, aside from ramming into them with your body, you can combat the enemies by collecting power-ups that periodically spawn in the play area.
==Power-Ups==
*Nitro: Temporarily makes you move much faster than normal, causing you to deal more damage to enemies when colliding with them.
* Fireball: Gives you three fireballs that you can spit at enemies to kill them from a distance.
==Worm Upgrades ==
*Worm Size: Makes you bigger so you can hit enemies more easily.
*Worm Speed: Increases your movement speed.
*Skin Strength: Reduces the amount of damage you take from enemies' attacks.
*Nitro Duration: Makes the Nitro power-up last longer.
*Fireball Level: Makes fireballs do more damage to enemies (later upgrades also add other buffs, such as being able to pass through multiple enemies).
