Piracy disclaimer

The copyright legitimacy of Worms 2 Plus is in question. Information about Worms 2 Plus is here strictly for educational purposes.


This article has a to-do list:
  • finish crediting authors in software info box
  • finish linkifying software such as libZPlay
  • determine the source of the vorbis- and FLAC-encoded music files
  • write about exactly what functionality this bundle provides to Worms 2
  • add icon and screenshot
  • research dsound.dll, win32.dll, winmm.dll, and wsock32.dll, since Carlmundo has claimed in Discord that they're free stubs instead of copyrighted Windows binaries
