Ardy the Aardvark

Although the same programmer, Chris Oberth, wrote both this and the Anteater arcade game it’s based on, there are some gameplay differences between them.  In Anteater, if a worm is on your tongue, you can only eat it by backing up over it head-first; in Ardy, you can only eat it tail-first.  In Anteater, you’re not safe from worms if you stay at the entrance but in Ardy you are.  In Anteater, the spider will follow your tongue to the tip and kill you if it touches it; in Ardy, the spider will kill you if it touches your tongue.
