Although this game utilizes the same format and controls as ''[[Centipede]]'', ''Millipede'' offers many extra elements that test your skill limits. You still shoot from the bottom of the screen at a field of mushrooms, but instead of battling just the original four arthropods, you now face a deadlier variety of enemy bugs: millipedes, spiders, bees, beetles, earwigs, inchworms, dragonflies, and mosquitoes. Naturally, each of these creatures has unique characteristics that must be studied. In addition, the mushrooms move up or down, and sometimes change around after the end of a level.
Line 10:
After every few levels, a swarm of insects appears; the point value for each insect shot during the swarm increases by 100 points each time, up to 1000 points apiece.
Another feature is the option to start at a higher level of difficulty, which progresses as the player scores more points (similar to ''[[Tempest (video game)|Tempest]]'').
