10048 *************************************************************************** * * * CENTIPEDE * * By Simon Tarry * * Copyright 1994 Archimedes World * * Risc OS 3 2 Megs * *************************************************************************** The year 2525, and Earth is under attack from a new threat. A warlike race from outer space bent on controlling the universe have decided that Earth is of no use to them. However, because one of their military fleets was passing the Milky Way they decided to attack it anyway as a military exercise. Only you can save the Earth from imminent disaster. Not because of your extreme skill, bravery and courage, not because of your Marks & Spencers underwear, but because everyone else is on holiday. The aliens usually come in all guises but this time they had a fancy dress party the night before attacking so they're still dressed up as insects. You must fight them in outer space, on the beaches, in the deserts and at that most curious place of alien attraction - Stonehenge. Armed with a single laser blaster, the only respite comes from a friendly bug which traverses the screen from time to time, and when shot, releases a bonus. After 16 levels of action, you will be awarded an extra life by someone in authority somewhere. There are 100 levels in all, and you are given four lives to start with. Use them well.
