A Namco fixed shooter sequel to Galaga with vertical movement and powerful upgrades.
The briefing
Gaplus is a fixed shooter sequel to Galaga in which the player pilots a spaceship against formations of insect-like aliens. The ship can move horizontally and vertically, with vertical movement limited to halfway up the screen.
Enemies fly in formation before diving toward the player in kamikaze-style attacks. If the player is destroyed before all enemies enter, the level begins again; defeating every enemy advances to the next level. Certain power-ups allow up to 60 bullets on screen.
In the United States, a modification kit was released under the name Galaga 3.
