Centipede — About this game
Defend the lower part of a mushroom-filled field from an advancing centipede and other insects. Shooting a segment splits the creature into new attacking sections, while mushrooms redirect its descent and can also block your shots. Spiders roam near your movement area, fleas create more mushrooms and scorpions change their danger. Keep firing while leaving enough room to dodge rather than retreating into a crowded corner. Start a one-player game and fire with A or B. Clear a narrow shooting lane through the mushrooms, track the lowest centipede section and move away when a spider approaches instead of staying in place.
