Description

You control a tiny shooter that has free movement of the bottom quarter of the screen. Your objective is to shoot down a giant centipede that is headed your way. Problem is when you hit a body part, it splits into two smaller centipedes, so you need to try and hit the head if at all possible. You must also contend with the frequent and pesky spider, the obnoxious flea, and in later levels, the poisonous scorpion. Wipe out the centipede to advance to the next level.
