Each of you will still control his or her own hedgehogs but they'll win or lose together. + Some weapons might do only low damage but they can be a lot more devastating in the right situation. Try to use the Desert Eagle to knock multiple hedgehogs into the water. + If you're unsure what to do and don't want to waste ammo, skip one round. But don't let too much time pass as there will be Sudden Death! + Want to save ropes? Release the rope in mid air and then shoot again. As long as you don't touch the ground or miss a shot you'll reuse your rope without wasting ammo! + If you'd like to keep others from using your preferred nickname on the official server, register an account at http://www.hedgewars.org/. + You're bored of default gameplay?

The Homing Bee as well as the Cake are exceptions to this. + The Old Limbuger only causes a small explosion. However the wind affected smelly cloud can poison lots of hogs at once. + The Piano Strike is the most damaging air strike. You'll lose the hedgehog performing it, so there's a huge downside as well. + The Homing Bee can be tricky to use. Its turn radius depends on its velocity, so try to not use full power. + Sticky Mines are a perfect tool to create small chain reactions knocking enemy hedgehogs into dire situations ... or water. + The Hammer is most effective when used on bridges or girders. Hit hogs will just break through the ground. + If you're stuck behind an enemy hedgehog, use the Hammer to free yourself without getting damaged by an explosion. + The Cake's maximum walking distance depends on the ground it has to pass. Use [attack] to detonate it early. + The Flame Thrower is a weapon but it can be used for tunnel digging as well. + Use the Molotov or Flame Thrower to temporary keep hedgehogs from passing terrain such as tunnels or platforms. + Want to know who's behind the game?
