Introduce
Fantastic is a classic shoot-'em-up game, a conversion of Galaga running on Galaxian hardware. Like Galaga, players control a small ship at the bottom of the screen, shooting down enemy spacecraft that descend from above. The main objective is to destroy all enemies before they reach the bottom of the screen. The gameplay of Fantastic retains the addictive appeal of Galaga while adding some new elements.
Enemy ships in Fantastic come in various types, each with its unique shape and attack pattern. Some enemies shoot projectiles, while others dive down for direct attacks. Players must observe and react quickly to avoid being hit and efficiently eliminate enemies.
A distinctive feature of Fantastic is its use of Galaxian hardware. This means the game's graphics may be simpler than Galaga's, but it retains a classic and charming aesthetic. The sound effects are also minimalistic but contribute to the tense and exciting atmosphere.
Similar to Galaga, Fantastic features a scoring system. Players earn points based on the number of enemies destroyed and survival time. Achieving high scores requires skill and intense focus. Fantastic is a game that challenges players' dexterity, reflexes, and adaptability.
