About

Jeremy Rand's Centipede for the IIGS, and the game that got several other people writing GS arcade ports. You play with the mouse, dodging the bugs and shooting them before they reach you; an ADB trackball makes it feel like the cabinet.

It runs at 60 frames per second on an unaccelerated GS. With a stereo card, bugs crossing right to left pan their sound with them. Tested on real hardware and on MAME, Ample and KEGS 1.05 and later; the read me on the disk covers which emulators work.

Version 2.0.1 (July 2021) is an 800K .2mg or a ShrinkIt archive. This archive does not host the disk; get it from the GitHub releases page.
