	Millipede - MSN Encarta
		Millipedes (Class Diplopoda, previously also known as Chilognatha) are arthropods that have two pairs of legs per segment (except for the first segment behind the head which does...
		Found worldwide, millipedes have segmented bodies with two pairs of legs on each of the 9 to 100 or more abdominal segments, depending on the species, and one pair on three of the four thoracic segments.
		Millipedes have a hard protective layer of calcium-containing chitin (except in some small species), two simple eyes, one pair of mandibles, two short antennae, and (in most species) stink glands with secretions that repel or kill insect predators.

	Millipede (Site not responding. Last check: )
		Millipedes (Class Diplopoda) are wormlike arthropods with cylindrical bodies that have two pairs of legs for each one of their 20 to 100 or more body segments.
		Unlike their close relatives, centipedes (class Chilopoda), millipedes are not venomous and cannot cause much harm with their bite.
		Since most millipedes are herbivorous, feeding on decaying vegetation, their jaws are simply not strong enough for munching on anything not already half rotten.

	Millipede@Everything2.com
		Millipede is a classic arcade game that was first made available by Atari back in 1982.
		In Millipede you are attempting to gain as many points as possible, by shooting down your assorted enemies, and by destroying all the segments of the roaming Millipede (or as Gritchka would say "Millepede").
		Millipede came in two different form factors, an upright and a cocktail table, and it was also available as a conversion kit for Kangaroo, Dig Dug, and Arabian.

		Millipede is one of those titles which is lacking in the graphics department, but absolutely shines in terms of gameplay.
		Millipede put the player in control of a “base” charged with the duty of blasting the heck out of an advancing millipede and a garden full of spiders, fleas and other pests.
		Millipede is just one of those games a player can loose track of all time playing.

		Your job is to destroy the creatures that come down off the top of the screen.
		One of these, the millipede, can be shot only one segment at a time.
		Because the mushrooms block the millipede, you can shoot the mushrooms to redirect the millipede.

	Millipede for Atari 2600 - MobyGames
		Millipede is the sequel to Centipede, and features similar gameplay, but with a new swarm of insects!
		The goal is to destroy the multi-segmented millipede as it traverses its way through the mushroom forest towards the bottom of the screen.
		Millipedes and other creatures are all worth a different amount of points.

	Millipede — StrategyWiki, the free strategy guide and walkthrough wiki
		Millipede was Atari's answer to fans of Centipede and upset arcade managers alike.
		Millipede introduces several new insects to the mushroom garden, including an inchworm that, once shot, slows the game down for a brief period of time.
		Millipede wasn't nearly as well received as its older sibling, and thus did not see nearly as many home conversions.

		The object of the game is to shoot and destroy as many objects as possible for a high point score, before the player's lives are all used up.
		The Millipede changes direction when it runs into a fixed object in the playfield (mushroom, DDT bomb, or flower), or when it reaches the side boundaries of the playfield.
		When a segment of the Millipede is shot, it is destroyed and a mushroom appears where that segment was shot.

		If the game is for the same system, we only consider it a cross reference if the program code between the two games is identical.
		Some pirate game manufacturers would alter the code slightly, maybe just to insert their logo (like Robby Game) but some manufacturers would alter the program code slightly as well, to change object appearances or gameplay.
		This is the i4 variation of game #131 (Millipede by Atari).

	Millipede/Walkthrough — StrategyWiki, the free strategy guide and walkthrough wiki
		Millipede has all of the qualities that made Centipede so popular and it adds even more to slow down Centipede experts.
		The millipede chain is shortened by a number of pieces equal to the extra spiders, making it a bit easier to kill.
		The side feed in Millipede is easier to handle than it is in Centipede for two reasons: Millipede is much more forgiving in detecting collisions with the heads, which allows you to move between them more easily, and the side feed never gets ridiculously fast, which is a nice improvement over Centipede.

	Millipede - AtariAge Forums
		Millipede, IIRC is only a prototype and therefore may not be 100% playable...
		The only downside with the trackball and the second multicart is that there is no way to select a game with the trackball and once you start the game, Millipede checks to see if you have a trackball or a joystick plugged in.
		In the actual game, the Millipede and Spider motions are not very fluid, but the essence of the arcade game is still there.

		Apparently Atari felt the same way as Millipede was planned for all four of its game systems: 2600, 5200, 400/800, and 7800, but only the 2600 and 400/800 versions ever made it out the door.
		Millipede was complete and ready to ship when Atari was sold to the Tramiels and almost all video game development was put on hold.
		Although some Atari 400/800 games were still allowed to proceed (to help bolster the Atari computer line), it was decided that the 5200 was not in Atari's future.

		The game rolls over each million and the actions subsides a bit, but quickly picks up pace, and every 900K mark is a nightmare for players, because the next 100,000 points that follows is sure to be ultra hard.
		Almost all facets of the game are based on the current displayed score so when the rollover occurs, most things slow down to the way they were at the beginning of the game.

	Twin Galaxies Forums :: View topic - NEW World Record on "Millipede" (arcade) !!
		The game rolls over each million and the actions subsides a bit, but quickly picks up pace, and every 900K mark is a nightmare for players, because the next 100,000 points that follows is sure to be ultra hard.
		At that game speed it’s almost kind of hard to watch the score and keep your eyes on the action at the same time, so I’m wondering if you even saw yourself pass the world record, or if you just knew that you did and kept on playing, to retain the focus.
		Almost all facets of the game are based on the current displayed score so when the rollover occurs, most things slow down to the way they were at the beginning of the game.

	Millipede Videogame by Atari (1982) - The International Arcade Museum and the KLOV
		Of these, 98 of them are original dedicated machines, 2 of them are conversions in which game circuit boards have been placed in another game cabinet, and 19 of them are only circuit boards which a collector could put into a generic case if desired.
		Some common games show up as very rare here because collectors don't want them (they are common because arcade operatos might be sitting on tons of them in warehouses), while some fairly scarce games are grabbed by collectors every time they show up.
		Additionally, some games made in the last 5 years are still making money for operators and are thus not yet affordable to the typical collector.

	Millipede
		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 the original four insects, you now face a deadlier variety of enemy bugs: millipedes, spiders, bees, beetles, earwigs, inchworms, dragonflies, and mosquitoes.
		Another feature is the option to start at a higher level of difficulty, which progresses as the player scores more points (similar to Tempest).

	Judging a Game by Its Cover from 1UP.com
		In the early days of primitive computer games, designers had to push their talents to the limit to create artwork based on clumps of pixels.
		In Atari's Millipede, your character is no more than a little triangle that shoots out little bars at moving circles.
		Sometimes cover designers took plenty of liberties with game concepts -- for example, the Atari 5200 version of the Namco arcade game Galaxian portrayed your foes as winged, armored creatures with reptilian tails, a far cry from the Space Invaders-style aliens that appeared in-game.

		A standard 15 pin game port connector can be cabled to the motherboard to provide twin analogue joysticks and a non-optoisolated MIDI I/O channel.
		Millipede have manufactured a limited quantity of motherboards for development and demonstration purposes.

	HSC Season 4 Week 16: Millipede - AtariAge Forums
		An army of menacing millipedes - cousins to the famed Centipede - have invaded your garden patch, and you must shoot arrows at them to rid your plot of these pesky pests.
		What I mean is, if you tend to leave the millipede alone and focus more on getting the spiders, beetles, etc., then you're probably going to rack up more points in each round, in which case the dragonfly wave probably won't appear until after you've exceeded 50,000.
		While I like Millipede over Centipede, I feel that Centipede is much closer to the original than Defender is. I also feel that Centipede 2600 is one of the better translations of the game.
