Bug-squashers of the Universe Unite!

Attack of the Lettuce Munching Caterpillars makes app store history by being the first app to combine 8-bit sound effects and retro 80s-style arcade gameplay with plasticene animated characters set against dazzling 3D backgrounds!
Guide our hero "Pit Man" on a frantic race against time to save his home planet from an infestation of hilarious pesky garden critters. Battle wave after wave of plasticene-animated mayhem and face challenging boss-men... In the 80s a hard game was a good game, and a fast game was a good game. "Caterpillars" breaks the mould of the usual iPhone/iPad/iPod app - no namby-pamby easy levels to ease you in to this one!
