A good basic game but with few surprises. Read Review
Another winner from Softek Software's amazing machine code games.
ULTRAPEDE - Your aim is to zp the Ultrapede before it can reach you. Blast part of its body and the remaining sections wind their way downward along separate paths - bouncing off of the mushrooms as they go. Look out for Sid the spider who will appear every now and then to crash into you, and be attentive for Brian who will suddenly arrive dropping his deadly fleas on you who create yet more mushrooms!
High score, super fast machine code action with fabulous arcade quality sound effects. This has to be the greatest version of the popular arcade game on the market.
The aim of the game is to destroy the Ultrapede before it reaches your base-contact with any segment of the Ultrapede is deadly. Your base can fire, and move up, down, left and right. If you shoot any part of the Ultrapede the reaming segments will continue independently towards your base rebounding off the mushrooms.
Points are awarded for hitting parts of the Ultrapede, and for totally destroying a mushroom, which requires three hits. Beware of the deadly spiders which appear from time to time and crash into your base, points are scored for hitting a spider but the move quickly and unpredictably. Also watch out for Brain the snail who will move across the screen dropping indestructible tiny spiders which leave a trail of mushrooms behind them. Brian himself can be destroyed however but be careful not to be hit by a tiny spider!
Mushrooms | 10 points |
Segment of the Ultrapede | 30 points |
Spider | 200 points |
Brian the Snail | 250 points |
1 - Left, 2 - Right, : - Up, 0 - Down, _ - Fire
