Maggotmania

Maggotmania is a video game in the action genre and published by Commodore Business Machines (UK) Ltd. originally released in 1983. It is currently playable on Commodore 64.

Maggotmania is a single-screen shooter inspired by the arcade game Centipede in which you control a blue creature at the bottom of the screen trying to destroy a large worm that appears at the top of the screen over several levels. You can move left or right, and forward a short distance, as well as move backwards, and you keep shooting upwards when you fire your gun. The worm moves across the screen and when it hits a flower or the edge of the screen then it moves down one place and moves in the opposite direction. When you hit the worm, it splits into two parts and keeps moving down towards you, leaving behind a flower. The flowers stop your bullets but after a few shots they disappear and if you hit a flower then you lose one of the three lives. Other creatures make an appearance, such as a spider and a snail, which you can shoot for extra points. If the worm reaches the bottom of the screen, it starts moving upwards and when it is destroyed, you pass to the next level.
