Galaga: Tips, Tricks and Strategies.

General Tips and Strategies

• Aim for a high score: The highest possible score in Galaga is 3,333,360. To get this score, you need to get the bonus ship after every stage (by destroying the mothership) and get a perfect bonus for each round.
• Know your enemies: Each of the enemies in Galaga have their own behaviors and patterns. Learn how to recognize and predict their movements to better prepare for their attacks.
• Stay focused: Galaga is a fast-paced game and it can be easy to get overwhelmed. Make sure to stay focused and keep track of all the enemies on the screen.
• Use the forcefield: When your ship is surrounded by enemies, use the forcefield to protect yourself. This will give you a few precious seconds to clear out the enemies.

Advanced Tips and Strategies

• Try for perfect bonuses: Every time you destroy a wave of enemies, you will be awarded with a bonus. Try to get the perfect bonus (by killing all the enemies in one shot) to maximize your score.
• Go for the mothership: The mothership appears at the end of each stage and will give you an extra ship if you can destroy it. Make sure to prioritize the mothership when it appears.
• Use the tractor beam: The tractor beam is a powerful weapon that can be used to capture certain enemies. Capturing enemies will give you bonus points and can be used to clear out a large group of enemies.
• Practice, practice, practice: As with any game, practice makes perfect. Try to play as often as you can to get better and better at the game.
