Your weapon for survival and mayhem is the A978 Wormhole GUN, that helps you to create wormholes within your environment and cross levels.

Although it initially got into the "bad graces" of Apple the first time around, it seems they had a change of heart and agreed to release the game. What made it so controversial you ask?

The game is from 4th & Battery, the edgier, more experimental division of your favorite wholesome gaming guru, Popcap.
