About this game

Liero 1.33 equips each worm with five weapons chosen from a larger arsenal, then sends both players into real-time combat. At the weapon screen, select Done with your fire key when ready. Randomize chooses a loadout for you. Wooden crates can replace your currently selected weapon, while medical kits restore health.

The players have separate controls. Player one uses D/G to move, R/F to aim and Left Ctrl to fire. Player two uses the arrows and Right Ctrl. Hold the change-weapon key and press left or right to select another weapon.

The ninja rope uses change-weapon plus jump. While holding change-weapon, the aim keys adjust rope length; jump releases it. Check Player Options if the current key layout has been customized.
