Actually...
You CAN walk... it took me a while... cuz there were no instructions... so i just pressed buttons... like WASD... found out that S changed PICO's... and that space allows you to move... and pressing space again allows you to shoot. and pressing numbers 1-5 makes you choose different weapons. =) pretty awesome game. adding to faves =) good job.

Good, but nowhere near great
It's a decent game, with the makings of a very good game, but it's so unbalanced that it's not very challenging, and so not very fun. The computer alternates between dropping missiles on your team with pinpoint precision from across the map and firing them into a mountain point-blank. There's also not any real sense of purpose: the initial rank goals seem sort of pointless when you can set up a game to guarantee a 1P win, and you're all but guaranteed to end up playing yourself for the 2P win. For an alternative mission structure, look at "Territories", a similar submission.
In general, the weapons seem overpowered: there's little reason to not use a missile when you can walk a few steps away and then blow a quarter of the screen up. The grenades seem sort of redundant: either tone down the missiles to require a near-direct hit, or replace one of them with a gun-type weapon.
Again, you've got everything you need for a great game, you just need to put it together differently.
This is a good review, and I agree with all of your points, the weapon terrain destruction and damage could definitely use some tweaking and the AI, as I've mentioned before, is not the strong point.
As for the 2P win, a guy can HOPE that internet users has friends can't he?
Can't he?!
:P
Crappy worms rip-off
not only was the computer far more powerful with precise accuracy, but the only weapons that worked were the missles, grenades, and bombs! everything else just froze up and wasted my turns! Not only has that game been done many times before, but it was far better on the others. Giving you a 4 is generous.
Many times? Name one other flash worms game with destroyable terrain much less randomly generated.
That's what I thought.
