The object
The object
It is free to download and comes with Galagas predecessor, Galaxian. The remakes of Galaga, Gaplus, and Galaga '88 are available as in-app purchases either separately or as a bundle. The graphics from the original games are shaded to look "glossy", and music is added to parts that did not have music in the original games. The application has also a one and a half minute long CGI video that plays as an intro before the title screen which features "Galaga points" and is collected as the games are played and are used to unlock various consumable power-ups and special arcade cabinet designs, including the original art for each game. The application was pulled from the App Store on March 31, 2017.
