Hey guys, just finished my first game.
Noted so far:
1) landscape looks pretty darn flat. It's not at all as 3d-ish as expected, but more like 'paper worms'.
2) rope is indeed completely messed up, it's hard to bounce back from walls, which makes it darn hard to get enough power to swing your worm on top of objects
3) comedy value is still there.
4) lots of stuff on the terrain, with exploding crates, fires, barrels, magnets and sentries it's easy to get overwhelmed.
5) game lagged a lot for my brother. It skipped for me when I was trying to rope, but otherwise pretty ok.
6) menu looks good.
For WA players who want to rope like on WA: definitely don't buy.
For players who like worms for mad cartoony action, yeah, not bad!
