Centipede (Intellivision)

It's Centipede. Again.

Developer Credits#

On the Right Controller, hold down one button from every row/column of the keypad and any diagonal direction on the disc (for example, 3 + 4 + 8 + Enter and Southeast), then press Reset. An alternate title screen will appear with a hidden credit for the game's programmer, Mark K. Kennedy. This screen cannot be dismissed with any controller buttons, and requires another reset to return to normal.

Hidden Text#

There are three hidden messages in the ROM. The first is found at the beginning of the ROM:

Why are you diassembling this code? That isn`t nice!

The second starts at 0x991:

Joe: Knock knock!

Moe: Who`s there?

Joe: Santa!

Moe: Santa who!

Joe: Santapede is comin` to town!

The third, a list of credits, is located at 0x3F03:
