Octopede brings a 70's arcade classic to the 21st century! In Octopede, you play as a lone computer program in the desperate search for more megabytes. With more ‘data’ eaten, the system becomes increasingly more aware of your presence, sending out enemies and obstacles to try and eradicate you. Equipped with a large array of weaponry ‘the worm’ must blast its way through hordes of deadly virus, bugs and glitches to collect the data rich discs. Traverse the system interface in 8 directions to manoeuvre around treacherous firewalls and deadly enemies. For those tough enough to fight their way through the system, deadlier foes await you. Only those that can show true heroic dedication and true skill can then go on to face 'The Core'! Manic gameplay, shiny neon graphics and 8-bit style music and sound effects make for a truly intense experience.

Based on the core concept of the ever popular Snake, Octopede brings the 1970s arcade classic to the 21st century. Manic gameplay, polished graphics and high quality SFX makes Octopede stand out amongst the other iterations of this hugely popular video game.

In Octopede, you play as a lone computer program in the desperate search for more megabytes. With more ‘data’ eaten, the computer that you are in becomes more aware of your presence, sending out enemies and obstacles to try and eradicate you. Survival is based on skill and makes the game more competitive and exciting.
Using a large array of weaponry ‘the worm’ can blast through enemies and firewalls, prolonging survival and raising your overall score. The worm's ability to move in 8 directions gives a new edge to the traditional 4 way moving patterns usually found on other snake games.
