Ever looked at a centipede and thought, “That’s cool, but it really needs a shotgun and some magical modules”? No? Well, the developers behind Centipede Gun did, and honestly, the results are as chaotic as they are addictive.

Inspired by the mechanical DNA of titles like SNKRX and FLERP, Centipede Gun is a creature-building roguelite that asks one simple question: How broken can you make your build before the enemies catch up?

Assemble Your “Centipede of Destruction”

In Centipede Gun, you aren’t just playing a character; you’re architecting a biological weapon. You start small, but after every wave of enemies, you’ll head to the shop to spend your hard-earned gold on new units, shapes, and—most importantly—guns.

The gameplay loop is deceptively simple but tactically deep:

• Auto-Attack Mayhem: Your guns fire automatically when enemies get close. Your job is to pilot your growing monstrosity through the chaos.
• Modular Evolution: Use special modules to add elemental effects or utility to your attacks.
• Merge to Level Up: Combining modules of the same type isn’t just about better stats; it’s about evolution. Reaching higher levels unlocks secret abilities that can turn a struggling run into a screen-clearing power trip.

Synergy is King

The heart of the game lies in the “insane combinations.” You aren’t just looking for high damage; you’re looking for the synergy that “breaks” the game. Maybe it’s a trail of freezing mines backed by long-range snipers, or a high-speed melee build that leeches life with every segment.

Pro Tip: Don’t play it safe. The enemies get stronger and faster with every wave, so if you aren’t actively trying to create something “unfair,” you’re probably going to end up as bug bait.

Why You’ll Keep Coming Back

Feature	Why it Rocks
Creature Building	Total freedom to combine forms and skills into weird living beings.
The Shop	A classic “one more round” mechanic that keeps you hunting for that final piece of your build.
Secret Upgrades	Rewards experimentation by hiding the most powerful buffs behind gun level-ups.
Scaling Challenge	The game respects your intelligence; as you get weirder, the waves get meaner.

Final Verdict:

Centipede Gun is a refreshing take on the roguelite genre for Xbox players who love theory-crafting and high-octane survival. It’s colorful, it’s bizarre, and it rewards the kind of “outside the box” thinking that makes roguelites so satisfying.
