Galaxian 2

Overview

The gameplay is based on the Galaxian arcade game. The player shoots at waves of attacking aliens as they launch kamikaze attacks. There are two user-selectable skill levels.

In Galaxian 2, the player's ship is known as the Galaxy ship. In two-player mode, one player controls the Galaxy ship and the other player acts as the opponent, controlling the attacking aliens.

Holding down the "missile" button whilst turning the game on initiates a graphical test and the game also has simple sound effects which can be turned off.
