Stop the insect manifestation with your bug blaster! As the centipede winds its way down the screen, dodging mushrooms, shoot it, but watch out there are other creatures out to get you! Shoot anything that moves, especially the wild spiders. It is also a good ides to shoot the mushrooms since they can clutter up the screen and cause the centipedes to move faster. If you shoot too many mushrooms the fleas will simply create more. If anything ever hits you, death will surely follow as well as a brand new game.

Hints to survive Centipede

Each time the head of a centipede hits a mushroom, the centipede moves down another row. If you hit the centipede, that segment turns into a mushroom, and the centipede breaks apart, forming two creatures at that point. Try and set up the centipede so it comes down a column of parallel mushrooms, with your gun underneath shooting each segment.

The closer the spider is to your gun when you shoot it, the higher the score.

The flea drops from the top of the screen, leaving a trail of mushrooms in its wake.

The scorpion wanders across the middle of the screen and poisons mushrooms. If a centipede runs into a poisoned mushroom, it also becomes poisoned. It then heads straight for the bottom of the screen! Shoot the centipede's head to stop its descent.
