Tom – sure, that'll work, but I think you're missing some points… – Yes, there is no food on the floor in the worm level – you EAT THE WORMS! (Ugh, I can't believe I said that :v) ). There is also plenty of water on the previous level. Therefore time is not of the essence. – By running away you get zero fighter experience which makes later levels tougher. – The reason you get lots of worms at some point is that you run all over the place and don't kill any. This lets them go further around corners. If you go *real* slow, they only advance so far, then stop at walls. I only dealt with one pair at a time for the whole level except at the end, where you normally have to retreat. Also closing doors makes them regenerate in places. By the way, an alternate way out at the end, if you can survive it, is to just jump in the pit and forget the whole end of level. – kn
