For instance, you get 30 points for shooting green, 40 for shooting blue, 50 for shooting red, and 60 for shooting a commander. The number of points added to your score will depend on the type of Galaxian you kill. What's really hard is in situations where there are more than two Galaxians dive-bombing and shooting at you. Strategy: try to shoot the blue ones first before shooting the commanders, and you could not have this problem. For example, the green ones dive-bomb in a straight light, while the blue ones dive-bomb, and then go in a zig-zag pattern, making them harder to kill.

Each Galaxian has their own attack pattern. For the rest, there are three rows of green Galaxians and these are easy to kill, and so are the red ones. They are easy identifiable due to their appearance, a shield. The commander is the exception to this rule. Sadly, I can't tell which is which, but since each Galaxian is color-coded, I'll identify each galaxian by their color. The wave ends when all Galaxians are shot. The Galaxians consists of drones, emissiaries, hornets, and commanders. The object of the game is simple: go through repetitive wave after repetitive wave of intense action by sliding your ship left or right and shoot any Galaxian (the invader) that gets in the line of fire, as they try to dive-bomb and shoot at you with their lasers, and get the highest score possible. I loaded it up before I went to school and had three games before I had to catch the school bus.

One morning I got up and found it sitting right next to me while I was eating my breakfast. I first heard about Galaxian when I had my old Commodore 64.
