(played as part of ATARI 50)
An early twin-stick shooter where you play as a spider and blast bugs. It's pretty good! The shooting feels great and the vector graphics are detailed and colorful. As good as the look is, though, the enemy design could be better, as they're all a bit busy and visually indistinct from one another. They're quite good representations of bugs! But unfortunately a lot of bugs kind of look the same, and it's hard to assess the threat type/movement patterns for each one of the enemies at a glance. Kind of a victim of its own success with the art.
Overall - fast, easy to get into, and fun.
