7800 Galaxian by PacManPlus over at AtariAge

[RickR]

I hope you all are paying attention to Bob "PacManPlus" DeCrescenzo's latest effort of Galaxian on the 7800.  It's so flipping awesome, and he's made a dev version available for download to try.  

The link is below.  If you go, please give him a "like" or "thanks".  Those guys over at AtariAge are awesome and being able so see this excellent game come along deserves a lot of praise and respect.

Willie of ArcadeUSA has also done two videos on the game (check out his youtube thread here at Atari.io).  Check those out as well.

Oh yes.  It's awesome!  I've been asking Bob to make a 7800 version of Phoenix also.  The only home port is the 2600 version, which is pretty good, but the 7800 can really get a more arcade-accurate version.

I tried it out today and have been following Bob's progress for a few months now and it will be a must buy for me. Galaxian is a top 5 favorite arcade game for me and his port looks and plays spectacularly. I only played on my laptop which is not a great way to experience it. I may put it on my modded nes mini and try the demo there if I can get it working.

Also totally agree about Phoenix. I've been trumpeting a 7800 version for years and Pacmanplus would be the perfect programmer to tackle it.
