🐛 Hello, retro gamers! Today I want to talk about one of the classic games for the Atari 2600: “Centipede” (or “Ciempiés” in Spanish). 🕷️
This game was released in November 1982 and it is a port of the arcade game of the same name. It is a shooter game where you control a blaster that can move horizontally at the bottom of the screen. You have to shoot at a centipede that moves down the screen, avoiding its segments and other enemies, such as spiders, fleas, and scorpions. 🦂
The game is very fast-paced, challenging, and addictive. You have to be quick and accurate with your shots, as the centipede can split into smaller pieces and change direction. You also have to deal with the mushrooms that block your shots and the enemies that create more mushrooms. 🍄
The game supports up to two players in alternating turns. You can use the standard joystick controller or the trackball controller, which is more similar to the arcade version. You can also choose from different game variations, such as different starting speeds, number of centipedes, and bonus lives. 🎮
The game has a simple but catchy sound design, with different sound effects for each enemy and action. There is no music in the game, except for a short tune that plays when you start a new game or lose a life. 🎵
If you have played this game, what are your impressions of it? Do you like the graphics, the gameplay, the sound, or the difficulty? Do you have a high score or a favorite game variation? Let me know in the comments below. 💬
