This software is an Alife simulator designed for Conway/Patterson/Beeler worms and other similar organisms. The simulator provides a platform to study these organisms' behavior and interactions within their environment.
Games::Worms is a fascinating alife simulator that lets you experience a virtual world inhabited by Conway/Patterson/Beeler worms, and more. With several output options such as Perl-Tk, Tek4010, and PostScript, this implementation of an artificial-life game is sure to keep you engaged.
While it may be called a game, Worms is not like traditional games such as checkers. Instead, it is more akin to Conway's Life, where simple rules pave the way for remarkable complexity. The worms in this universe crawl around an isometric grid of triangles, leaving behind trails and turning based on basic rules that determine their available movement at each junction.
Worms is easy to use, and the SYNOPSIS offers multiple commands that allow you to get started with ease. You can output your gameplay to PostScript by running commands such as "perl -MGames::Worms -e worms -- -tPS / / / / > foo1.ps" or enjoy the graphical interface by typing "perl -MGames::Worms -e worms -- -tTk".
Overall, Games::Worms offers a unique and captivating experience that is worth exploring. With its simple yet powerful rules-based system, Worms can teach you about the fascinating complexities that can emerge from even the most basic building blocks.
