Hello. I recently saw this really, really awesome version of Galaga at this laundromat that I was at. It was called Galaga Enduring Freedom. In the game, the aliens are replaced by terrorists, and it has a picture of Osama Bin Laden on the title screen.
That's a fun looking Galaga hack.
Well, I was wondering if anyone in this forum would, by any chance, happen to have the ROM for that game that I could download. I would like to play the game on my computer using MAME. Thx.
Unfortunately, we can't help you with where to find/download the ROMs because of
Rule 5.
The emulator you need to run this game is called HBMAME -- a fork of MAME that covers the homebrews and hacks that are not part of mainline MAME.

https://www.progettosnaps.net/hbmame/ - older releases
Robbbert announced that "galagaef" was added to MisfitMAME in v0.128.B. (March 20, 2011)
https://www.mameworld.info/ubbthreads/showflat.php?Number=249430MisfitMAME later became HBMAME and "galagaef" has been in there since at least v0.151.
https://www.progettosnaps.net/hbmame/list/gamelist_151.txtThe easiest way to get this running on your system is find a relatively recent,
known version number HBMAME ROMset. i.e. "HBMAME v0.245.12 ROMset", not one that only tells you how many games are in the set.
- Once you have the
known version ROMs, download the matching version of HBMAME.
If you find a merged HBMAME ROMset, the "galagaef" files will be inside the "galaga.zip" file.
- Like you do with MAME ROMs, put the ROM .zip files in the "hbmame\roms\" folder without extracting them.
