Galaga note pronounced ga-LAG-a, per Word of God. is a fixed shooter arcade game and the sequel to Galaxian. It was released by Namco in 1981; the US version was released the same year under license to Midway (and later ported to the Nintendo Entertainment System by Bandai (which has, somewhat ironically, since merged with Namco to form Bandai Namco Entertainment) and the Game Boy game systems (under license to Nintendo) along with Galaxian).The objective of Galaga is to score as many points as possible by destroying insect-like enemies. The player controls a fighter spaceship that can move left and right along the bottom of the playfield. Enemies fly in groups into a formation near the top of the screen, then begin flying down toward the player, firing bombs at and attempting to collide with the fighter. Occasionally, a "boss Galaga" attempts to capture the player's fighter using a tractor beam. If successful, the fighter joins the formation and must be freed by the player (using another ship and costing him/her a life), enabling him/her to control two ships simultaneously and doubling the players' firepower. Galaga '88 even allowed the player to do the same with a third ship. The game is over when the player's last ship is destroyed or captured.Galaga introduces a number of new features over its predecessor, Galaxian. Among these are a realistic explosion sound that occurs when the player loses a life, a count of the player's "hit/miss ratio" at the end of the game, and a bonus "Challenging Stage" that occurs every four levels, in which a series of enemies fly onto and out of the screen in set patterns without firing at the player.Notably, while the game was a fixed shooter, the background of the game was a field of stars that scrolled vertically, creating the illusion of moving through space. While it was strictly cosmetic in this game, Namco would expand on the idea the following year with Xevious (which incidentally ran on the same hardware).The arcade game was followed up with two more sequels in the 80s: Gaplus released in 1984, and Galaga '88 released in, well, 1988.Galaga is one of the few classic arcade games to still be profitable. It has been re-released in new arcade machines by (Bandai) Namco multiple times, including a 1995 Namco Classics Collection machine that includes both the original game and new "Arrangement" remake, in a 2001 30th anniversary combination arcade game with fellow "Class of 1981" game Ms. Pac-Man (and Pac-Man as an unlockable bonus), and, along with its predecessor and sequels, as part of a the Pac-Man's Pixel Bash multi-game cabinet of 30+ classic Namco arcade games released in 2018. In 2016, the series it's first full arcade sequel since 1988 in the form of Galaga Assault, which upgrades the graphics to HD and can now be played for tickets.The series has been given a downloadable title in the same vein as Pac-Man Championship Edition: Galaga Legions on Xbox Live Arcade in 2008, with a Deluxe version released as part of the Namco Generations line on Xbox Live Arcade and Play Station Network in 2011.There was a webcomic based on it written by Ryan North, as part of ShiftyLook, but that site is now defunct. | |

Shows Damage: The boss Galagas take two hits to destroy, turning darker colors after the first, although this does not change their behavior. Galaga '88 adds new kinds of enemies that change after they are hit. One type of enemy takes three hits to kill and grows larger with each hit until it pops. King Galaspark from the first Galaga Arrangement becomes more and more red as he takes damage. | |

Multiple Endings: Galaga '88 has different endings depending on which dimension you took to beat it, from an image of your fighter returning to base with text mentioning how the aliens struck back seven years later, to a female fighter pilot thanking you for saving her and inviting you to be together as a man and a woman. | |

Fusion Dance | |
| Galaga (Video Game) / int_302730a | comment |
Fusion Dance: Galaga '88 at the very least has enemies that can fuse to form other, much tougher enemies. In Galaga Arrangement, rescuing a captured ship causes the two ships to combine together to form a more powerful one; how this upgrades the ship depends on which version you are playing. In the first Galaga Arrangement, they will combine into a larger ship, which comes in three different flavors depending on what type of enemy you rescued the ship from. In the second Galaga Arrangement, the ship does not become larger, but it gains bigger shots; but if you let the enemy capture two ships and rescue both of them, you can merge three ships together to form one that fires bigger shots and fires twice as many. In Galaga '88, if you are hit by a tractor beam while you have two ships, they will merge together into a blue ship, which if recaptured will fuse with your ship to make a ship with three times the fire power but only twice as wide as a normal one, which splits into two ships if it gets hit. | |

Un-Installment | |
| Galaga (Video Game) / int_3908cf5b | comment |
Un-Installment: Gaplus, the sequel to Galaga, was not initially as successful as its predecessors thanks to a general downturn in the video game market in 1983–84 (see The Great Video Game Crash of 1983). Believing that the Gaplus name was to blame, Namco's American branch had conversion kits made that changed the title to Galaga 3. While it was indeed the third entry in the series, Galaxian came before Galaga and there is no Galaga 2. | |

Nintendo Hard | |
| Galaga (Video Game) / int_62259825 | comment |
Nintendo Hard: On the lower end of the scale compared to other arcade games, but this is still a tough game to get through. Even the Dual Ship will only help you so much by the time you get to later levels, where the enemies don't let up and get much harder to dodge. '88 is even more difficult as it adds several new kinds of enemies and gives new abilities to some of the old ones. Plus, more enemies attack you at a time. Recapturing ships becomes very tricky with the sheer amount of enemies and bullets you have to dodge, and even if you manage to do it, you are not likely to keep it for long. | |

Giant Mook: Galaga Arrangement occasionally has you encounter giant versions of enemies in the openings of levels. They usually do not join the formation in the main segment of levels, and so they usually just leave if not killed quickly enough. In Galaga '88, when the enemies start to run low, sometimes two enemies will combine into a much bigger one that takes several shots to kill. | |

Bonus Stage: The Challenging Stages (marked in Galaga '88 by a "That's Galactic Dancin' announcement), that show up every few stages. You can't die in them, and they just serve as a way of getting extra points, with a bonus awarded if you kill every target or a hidden bonus if you do nothing, in Galaga '88. Getting a dual ship beforehand makes them significantly easier to beat. | |

Anti-Frustration Features | |
| Galaga (Video Game) / int_d6f284a3 | comment |
Anti-Frustration Features: Galaga Arrangement makes it much easier to recapture ships. You no longer have to wait until the capturing enemy is out of formation before you can kill it to recover the ship and you also become invincible for a short time when the ship is freed so that you can't die before the ship returns to you and for a short time after. | |

Wins by Doing Absolutely Nothing | |

Wins by Doing Absolutely Nothing: If done in the Challenging Stages in 88, the player gets a bonus equal to what the Flawless Victory bonus would have been. | |

Turns Red | |
| Galaga (Video Game) / int_e3ab9e00 | comment |
Turns Red: King Galaspark from the first Galaga Arrangement changes his bullet patterns as he takes damage. When his health gets very low he will occasionally try to ram the player's ship. | |

Spelling Bonus | |
| Galaga (Video Game) / int_ec24b8c0 | comment |
Spelling Bonus: The Challenging Stages in Gaplus have the player juggling enemies and gradually spelling out words that describe what happens if spelled out. For example, "DOUBLE" will double the number of points received from the Challenging Stage. "BYE BYE" is probably best left not spelled. | |
