I appreciate the fact that this game exists. I’ve been wanting a more modern version of games to play on my arcade cabinet, and this is amazing. No 4:3 or 5:4 resolution support for my old-timey cabinet monitor, but I wasn’t expecting it. I also very much appreciate the fact that controller action buttons still work to fire bombs in mouse mode, because I didn’t think to wire up mouse buttons for my trackball, and now I don’t need to disassemble and cut into my panel again. Looking forward to many hours of blasting bug guts in 2020.
Soooo... if you like centipede or milipede, this is the game for you... Very fun and challenging... no jokes here, get it if it's on sale or not, you will play this a bit
Kurzweilige Neuinterpretation von Centipede mit Gamepad Support.
A souped-up version of Centipede with powerups, Bad Caterpillar has much to like as a near-perfect arcade experience. The real thrill is leaderboard chasing so your game-time experience may vary with one's interest in such. Instructions are clear (moveset is pretty limited: up, down, sideways ... and shoot things!) but the power-ups themselves are pretty hard to decipher when in the middle of a game and it is unclear how some affect your score and screen, but the basic gameplay loop is a blast. An easy recommendation and the perfect time filler.
Really nice game. you see love put in it.
Leaf turns to ruin Tiny jaws rewrite the green Nature learns fear now
It's pretty much Centipede or Millipede, but with powerups (speed, slow, freeze, reverse, multishot, split shot, wave shot, railgun and machinegun) and a good variety of different bugs with different behaviors to avoid. The music is good and the game's difficulty feels just right so it's easy enough to learn and go for a high score pretty quickly after starting, but not so easy that you'll never die.
Pew pew, classic blast, Atari bugs, retro game, Nostalgia's joy lasts.
Brilliant game, fun, great control. Definitely a well done millipede clone, worlds better then the more recently released recharged series. Highly, highly recommended. I'd love to see more classic takes from the author, bravo!
