Gaplus, great game
(1/2) > >>

Some how, I have managed to get this far in life without playing this game.
I guess I always just assumed it was a galaga bootleg like gallag or something. It was never a well known game and we've never had one around my area.
But I was visting Funspot this weekend and saw it there. I decided to give it a try and I found it to be a very fun gam .

We visit Funspot one weekend a year and I always try to focus my time there (when I'm not chasing my son around) on one particular game.
One year, I focused on improving my skills on Gyruss.
Another year, I played Wacko for the first time and mostly stuck to playing that every chance I had.
A couple of years ago, I was introduced to the Glob for the first time.
This years take away game is definitely Gaplus

I've been a big fan of this game since I ran across it while stationed in Germany in the 80's.  IMHO, it's the best in the "Galaxian" series.  It's literally the second game I play, or the first, if I'm not in the mood for Robotron  ;D

I definitely agree.  If folks haven't checked this one out, they don't know what they are missing.
mgb:
Yes, I definitely prefer it over galaxian and galaga also.

I actually discovered this gem as "Galaga 3".  But then realized GaPlus is the same game.

Have you guys seen the trick where you can upgrade your ship to the fast shooting ship?  I love how they throw tribute to the Galaga fast shooting hack.  It happens in the 1st minute of this video:

I discovered this game during my college years in the late 90s.  It was in my university's rec area and drew my interest despite the other current arcade games around it.  After years of play, I never knew about that fast shooting trick.  Thanks for sharing DeLuSioNal29.
