About

Web build doesn't have audio, requires a page refresh to restart after victory, and was not tested as thoroughly as the download version.

A local multiplayer strategy game that's like Worms mixed with Moonbase Commander.

You launch RTS buildings instead of missiles. You start with one launcher building that can fire mineshafts (get resources), barracks (pump out creeps), bombs (terraform/defence), or more launchers. Tech tree lets you make them bouncy, boosty, sticky. Destroy all of your opponent's launchers to win!
