Katerpillar Attack intro and game screens

Katerpillar Attack is one of the earlier clones of the arcade hit Centipede. Unlike the arcade, or most clones, your vertical movement was extremely limited (only 2 positions), although the sound effects were fairly decent. It was also missing the Scorpion from the arcade (and some other Coco versions), and the poisoned mushrooms that the Scorpion created. It also had a cute intro that was drawn on the screen by a Katerpillar.
