Cosmic Split

An astronomical title for an honest, down to earth game of Centipede. Two unusual features are the rotating segments of your creepy crawly antagonist and a whirling fireball, both well animated. Snakes, spiders and fleas complete the menagerie your laster cannon has to destroy, amidsy the green and pink fungi.

A faithful, competent rendering of a popular scenario: colourful, with all the action applicable to the plot. The grey background is a happy choice, being both restful to the eye and setting off the characters well. Smooth graphics with unobtrusive sound effects make this a program worth checking out, especially if you like luxury presentation wallets. The clear score table is self-contained in a section to the right of the action.
