Instructions
------------

You are always the green worm. Any red, blue or yellow worms (rivals) are
controlled by the phone.
  The 3*3 grid of buttons is used to control your worm (or you can use a
real peripheral such as an 8BitDo Zero 2 gamepad). Input from a peripheral
will be shown as yellow. Touchscreen input will be shown as white.
Otherwise, the brightness of the green of the currently lit button
indicates your speed.
  Which button is currently lit indicates your direction of movement.
Tapping that direction will increase your speed; tapping the opposite
direction will decrease it. Tapping another direction will turn your worm.
The central button is the firebutton; it will fire a bullet if you have
any, or jump otherwise.
  Tapping the playfield area will toggle between a far-away view of the
entire playfield and a close-up scrolling view of a quarter of the
playfield, centred on your worm's head. In the close-up view, the edges of
the field are delineated by thin white lines.
  At the end of each level, or the end of the game, the game will wait for
a tap on the playfield area or button grid before continuing.
  The 75-level WormWars.lset levelset is built into the game. You can load
a different levelset instead if you prefer; there are some included in
http://amigan.1emu.net/releases/WormWars.zip . That archive also contains
the full user manual.
  The game was written in C and Java, using Android Studio 2022.1.1 aka
Electric Eel. It was tested on ZTE Optus P500 and P501 phones with Android
9 and 11 respectively, at 480*960 resolution (176 dpi), and also on
BlueStacks 5.11.1.1002 P64.
