Yes, I've been itching to get back to early Spectrum stuff for some time. I've got quite a few odd games lined up.

Released in 1983 by Sinclair Research, it was written by William Tang of Melbourne House.

The game features three stages, all involving spiders. In the first stage, you head into a cave, jumping spiders and up levels.

In level two you jump from spider thread to spider thread to cross a chasm. All the while, the spiders will pull you up to eat you.

The third stage - and the main one - is a Space Panic clone. Stomp the spiders that fall into holes in the web to get rid of them.

Levels go around again once complete, getting longer and/or harder.

All fairly simple stuff, but as 16K games go, this one is pretty decent.

This run was played on the 10th February 2023, using the Antstream emulation service. There are no skill levels and the final score was 6,600.
