I've dealt with some annoying enemies but the swooping bats take the cake. I don't know how to consistently deal with the swooping without getting killed.
Galaga came in the mail today. I really like this port. I even like the way the enemy formations have choppy Space Invaders style movement rather than the smoother movement of the arcade version.
You're so insanely powered up by the end of Super Metroid that completing the final area is more of a formality. It's the opposite of the original Metroid where the final boss fight is pretty hard.
I love Galaga but was forced to play on emulator this week. I wonder if I'd do better on real hardware with no lag. I did notice some improvement after disabling vsync on my emulator.
I want the cart now though. Really fun game.
I recommend getting in the habit of mashing with your index finger for shooters or anything that requires a lot of fast mashing. Even that can become tiring. Sometimes I have to alternate between index finger and thumb depending on the game.
I really like Galaga, but apparently I suck nuts at it. I haven't even been able to get 100k let alone over 200k. I also suck at hitting all the enemies in the challenging stages.
Haven't started Commando yet.
