A Spectrum Next take on the classic Centipede game. Shoot the advancing centipede and other enemy insects like spiders, fleas and scorpions. Try not to get hit!

This was the first game written for the Spectrum Next although it does not use Next specific features. Instead it utilises the Timex 8x1 video mode to create interesting colour effects (notice the number of colours on the text at the bottom of the screen).

The game is a classic arcade with fast speed and graphics, made with the Arcade Game Designer (AGD).
