About this title

"Galaxian" is a shooting game released by Namco in 1979. You control a Galaxip and shoot aliens that approach you in eerie curves. Aliens during the assault double your score, and the flagship (Galboss) can be shot at in turn, starting with the escort (red alien), for a higher score. Deftly dodge enemy aliens and destroy the large formation.
