weapons
The weapons from Teeworlds were largely inspired by the games Quake and Unreal Tournament .
The grenade launcher shoots a grenade that does a lot of damage in a large area. If the shooter is in the explosion radius of the grenade, however, it can also be dangerous for the shooter. A so-called rocket jump can be performed with this weapon .
The hammer is a standard weapon. It does a lot of damage, but only if hit directly with it.
The katana rarely appears on a few cards. After you have collected this weapon, the skin of the tea changes (into a ninja). This weapon does a lot of damage.
You have to aim very precisely with the laser cannon in order to hit. The beam is very fast, reflects off walls and does moderate damage.
The pistol is another standard weapon. Your ammunition is regenerating. However, it does little damage.
The shotgun always releases five bullets with one shot, which are distributed like a fan. The damage depends on the range, but at close range it causes great damage.
reception
“Entertaining, uncomplicated and original. Whoever liked Worms will love Teeworlds. The rapid course of the game and the funny characters ensure entertaining shooter fun from the very first moment. The large fan base is always taking care of new maps, mods and skins. "
- The CHIP editorial team thinks the game is "pure action". However, they complain that the player is often more concerned with learning the controls at the beginning than being able to take care of the game. It is also praiseworthy that the players can use the integrated chat function to constantly exchange ideas with friends and opponents.
- Gamodrome believes that “the game is free and entertaining” and thanks to the uncomplicated and fast gameplay it is “perfect for a quick game in between”. It is critically noted that the game, “since there is nothing to unlock, has no real long-term motivation” “”.
- Winfuture came to the following assessment: "Teeworlds is an entertaining and easy-to-learn online shooter with cute 2D graphics, but the servers were pretty empty in our test, so you should bring your friends with you so that the game can be fun."
