Keep possession of the ball. Love your opponent.

A competitive local multiplayer game for two players.

I couldn't give more than 3 overall because I can't see any relation to the theme at all here.

That said, the game made me laugh like a lunatic for about 10 minutes solid, to the point where my wife came in and wanted to know what had happened - The physics in this game are HILARIOUS!

Cute! My SO is sadly busy so we couldn't get the two-player action in but I can see how it would be a lot of fun! Also, _thank you_ for making a game I can play in my browser instead of downloading!

Lol that's nice.

Is "love" supposed to be the unconventional weapon? :P

So damn cute. I wish I had someone to play this with. Made me miss my gf who is in America right now. We would love to play this game together. Innovative, not a lot of two-player same-keyboard games. Well done.

Love the way the worms move, would've been nice to get some AI in there so it's playable single player.

This was fun! So wiggly. Physics are awesome.

Fantastic! I had nobody to play it with but I happily mashed keyboard buttons and so much love ensued.

hahaa, great game!
This reminded us of our own warm up LD, CentiSoccer, but your game is definitely even more fun :)

Don't have anyone to play with right now, but I had a lot of fun just kicking the ball back and forth -- the worm physics are fun to play with. And those cute little hearts when you collide..! Very charming game.

Remind me a lot of Hokra from Sportsfriends.

Nice game, it reminds me starwhal.
We had fun, thanks!
(but after three round, worms disappear...)

Games like this make me seriously wish mechanical keyboards were less of a rarity. The 3 button at any time limitation is a real shame.
Fun concept, I do see potential for further work, but it does need that work, it feels a little unpolished.

Particles maybe? Music? I don't know what I would say the most important thing to add first to this is...

reminds me of one of the mini games of super pole riders :)

Fun game, and I like the movement on the two 'love worms'.

That was really cool, we had a great time playing this one :D

I am a bit puzzled by the choice of ijkl instead of the arrow keys, and I found the worms hard to properly control (that last one added to the goofyness of the situation though)

@PapyPilgrim The font I chose didn't have arrow symbols!
