Added 2022-11-16 19:22:05 +0000 UTC***A few facts about Centipede*** - Centipede was one of the top four highest-grossing arcade games of 1982 in the United States, along with Ms. Pac-Man, Pac-Man and Donkey Kong. That's some badass company! - It was also one of the first coin-operated arcade video games to have a significant female player base. - Dona Bailey and Ed Logg developed Centipede. Logg, a supervisor, said that he did the design, while Bailey did about half of the programming. Bailey was one of the few female game programmers in the industry. Logg stated that the game was intended to attract women players; he believed that its design was not biased by sex, unlike a fighting or sports game. Bailey said: "I really like pastels ... I really wanted it to look different, to be visually arresting". Bailey was one of the few American women at the time with experience in assembly language programming. Times sure have changed... - A 3D fantasy role-playing game based on the original game was being developed by Dark Science for the Atari Jaguar CD under the working title Centipede 2000.[29] The source code of the project no longer exists and the only remaining proof of its existence is a short video clip from the developer. - A revamped version of the game, titled Centipede: Recharged, was released for Microsoft Windows, Nintendo Switch, PlayStation 4, PlayStation 5, Xbox One, Xbox Series X/S, Google Stadia, and Atari VCS with exclusive content on September 29, 2021. Doesn't beat the classic but the image is AMAZING. Might play some of it just to see the difference. See you later tonight!!!
