Featuring our signature Indirect Control mechanic, you won't just walk; you'll manage a neural network of limbs struggling to maintain momentum across a variety of new hazards.

Enter the Scolopendra Model.

The Hardware: 10 Legs of Pure "Thinking" Monstrosity

The Scolopendra is a segmented, 10-legged 3D physics nightmare - or dream, depending on how many legs you manage to keep. Featuring our signature Indirect Control mechanic, you won't just walk; you'll manage a neural network of limbs struggling to maintain momentum across a variety of new hazards.

What’s New in This Level?

The Limb-Ripper Mines: A field of obstacles designed to test just how many legs a robot actually needs to function. (Spoiler: You can lose quite a few and still wiggle to the finish line).
Physics-Based Riddles: Use your segmented mass to solve the "Kindergarten" level pazzle. It’s exactly as dignified as it sounds. Nevertheless, our first 27+ years’ trainees still managed to fail this level. Pathetic…
The Urban Traffic Simulation
Test your patience (and the robot's structural integrity) against heavy-traffic speed cars and functioning traffic lights.
Remember
Red means "Stop," not "Become a scrap."

A Note from the Narrator

"The Company reminds you that every leg left behind is a donation to science. Please try not to get too attached to your segments—they certainly won't stay attached to you."

Technical Adjustments

Neural Network RefinementImproved decision speed for multi-legged forms.

All levels are now unlocked from the beginning!!!!
