Synopsis

Inspired by the arcade game Centipede, Bug Blaster is a single-screen shooter where you have to destroy a Centipede that moves from the top of the screen. The Centipede moves across the screen and when it reaches the other side, it moves down one place and back across the screen. You control a spaceship at the bottom of the screen by shooting the centipede while moving left or right, while being able to move forward and backward a short distance. Shooting the centipede a certain number of times splits it in half and the other parts split in half when shot multiple times.

Mushrooms are scattered around the screen and when the centipede hits them it changes direction, but the mushrooms can be shot to make them disappear and receive points. Other creatures appear and must be shot or avoided and they are an insect which places more mushrooms, spiders, scorpions and snails and if you are hit by any creatures you lose one of three lives. Destroying all parts of the centipede moves you to the next level.
