I had a lot of fun playing this! The sprites and animations ar great! I especially liked the death animation, sometimes I would kill the poor little worm just to see it xd The music is also very good. An the level design felt very well balanced. I dont understand why you chose ":" as a button though. Those characters are different depending the region, I had to press a lot of different keys until I found that in my keybord the right key was ";" and that I had to press "shift + ," to transform wich was a little unintuitive.

Ah sorry, I didn't take that into account. The reason I chose it was because initially I had plans for the caterpillar to perform various attacks and those were bound to J and K so the initial concept was to have the player use their right hand on the home row on the ANSI layout as if they were typing, while their left hand was on WASD. Those ideas were scrapped though, so I just didn't really pay much attention to the bindings after that unfortunately.
