Caterpilla

Caterpilla is an arcade shooter created by Adrian Sherwin and published by Spectrum Games Ltd. Inspired by Centipede, it challenges players to destroy a long, segmented insect one section at a time before it reaches the bottom of the screen.

Mushrooms scattered across the playfield can also be shot, while a giant spider periodically appears and lunges at the player.
