Explanation Link to heading
The gameplay mostly matches Galaxian, however I’ve changed the weapons a bit. The primary weapon is a boomerang which will be able to destroy one additional enemy for each time you catch it, however each time you fail to catch it the number of enemies it can destroy will go down by one (minimum 1). The secondary weapon is a laser which has limited range but can fire more quickly, ideal for taking out charging enemies.
Each time you clear the screen the enemies will become slightly more aggressive (and the game will be more difficult).
