You don't know what a SPECTRAWORM is? Well -- we are the little critters who clean up the fruit left over in your television from that other video game that you play! And we do all this for "BEANS". To see me at work, and help me out -- just plug me into your game console. By the way, if you see "SPANKY" the spider, or "BEEKY" the bird don't tell them where I am!


Twin Galaxy scores for game 1, Difficulty B. (note: we are playing game 3)
  • 4775 (Nik Meeks)
  • 3455 (David B Yancey)
  • 2365 (Alan W Hewston)
Deadline : Wednesday October 26th or no one posts a score for 24 hours... which ever comes LAST. If you roll the score, stop playing and let everyone know.

1 - Zoyx.............. 8865
2 - Gorfy............. 2990
3 - LarcenTyler....... 1490
4 - Roadrunner........ 660

8865

The score rolls at 9999, so I am close.

There are only 5 screens, then it repeats. So once you master those 5 screens, you own this game.

Wow, this advanced level is hard. I'm reasonably good at game 1, but game 3 kicks my ass! I'll need a month or so to catch up to your score......
Best score thus far: 1205

Before it was played on millions of cell phones (and now smartphones most likely) it was on the Atari 2600.

This is based off of an Arcade game called Snake. I coded up a Snake game for my Dad's TRS-80. I was a fan of this game type... explains why I am good at Tapeworm.

That's that. I may post another game if there is a need.
