Atari Centipede

Description

Unleash your arcade gaming skills in Atari Centipede, a fixed shooter game packed with nail-biting action! Your mission is to eliminate an advancing horde of arachnids and insects that include centipedes, spiders, scorpions, and fleas. Your weapon? A bugblaster that shoots darts at the charging centipede made of multiple segments. Battle your way to survival and obliterate the head of the centipede to bring it down.

How to play

In Atari Centipede, your bugblaster shoots automatically. Your task is to move it horizontally or vertically for accurate aim at the oncoming bugs. The centipede moves down in a zigzag motion; shoot it to break it into pieces. Remember, each body part turns into a mushroom upon shooting. Aim for the head - its destruction ends the centipede's life.

Tips and Tricks

Create a strategic playing field by aiming at the centipede's body parts to create more mushrooms which can slow down or alter their path. However, balance this technique with clearing out mushrooms that might block your movement and aim. Always stay focused on targeting the head piece.
