Wormy meadows is the fourth stage of Splatter and takes place in a mostly forested area infested with worms. This level contains the first instance of the automatic rifle.
Overview[]
The level begins when Max is dropped off at the edge of a wooded area by his driver ally from the previous stage, telling him that he'll have to walk the rest of the way. Unlike the first two levels, moving east is the main goal of this map. The automatic rifle is located near the beginning of the level.
As the name of the level suggests, there is a large infestation of worms. They inflict contact damage and are immune to bullets, but they are also slow and repelled by bright light like most other monsters. Groups of worms will often be guarding helpful pick-ups nearby. Max will have to pass through a total of three separate worm hordes before encoutering a character named Jenny.
Jenny will request Max's assistance in fending off one large final horde of worms while she refills her car with gas. All of the worms can be easily destroyed by allowing them to draw near the combustible barrels and detonating them when they are close enough, burning the worms in a chain reaction that spreads to other worms. Additionally, a sufficiently upgraded automatic rifle can be used to ignite the worms and flares will easily repel them as well. Once Jenny is finished, she will tell Max to get into the car, and the two will drive away to the next stage.
