Gaplus (GP2 rev. B)

Gaplus (GP2 rev. B) is a vertically scrolling shoot 'em up that builds upon the gameplay of Galaxian. Players control a spaceship at the bottom of the screen, firing upon waves of descending alien spaceships. Unlike Galaxian, Gaplus introduces the 'Gap' mechanic – pauses between enemy attacks. Players must utilize these gaps to score points and upgrade their weaponry. Each wave of enemies features different shapes and behaviors, requiring quick reflexes and strategic thinking. The game features multiple levels with increasing difficulty, demanding persistence and skill. Scoring is based on the number of enemies destroyed and survival time. A distinctive feature of Gaplus is its high score system, encouraging players to strive for the highest possible score. Later stages become increasingly challenging with greater numbers of enemies, faster speeds, and more complex behaviors. Managing ammunition and positioning is crucial for survival and achieving high scores in Gaplus.
