r0n1n Posted November 16, 2022 Share Posted November 16, 2022 Hi all ! Although I am a long time user, this is my first post. Posting this here because the Arcade64 forum seems to have disappeared. I really hope the project has not been cancelled. I noticed that the venerable Galaxy Game, one of the earliest coin-op video game http://adb.arcadeitalia.net/?mame=galgame is not listed in latest Arcade 0.249.0 It seems to meet the usual inclusion criteria and was listed in MAMEUI 0.248.0 Can I please hope that it will appear in a future version ? Thanks. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Robert Posted November 16, 2022 Share Posted November 16, 2022 I could never get that game to start playing. If you know how, do tell. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It uses the default controls, nothing special. I use an azerty french keyboard but this is what it should be on a qwerty one: 5 = coin left-right arrows/CTRL/Alt = select level left-right arrows = P1 spin left/right CTRL = P1 fire Alt = P1 thrust Space = P1 hyperspace D-G = P2 spin left/right A = P2 fire S = P2 thrust Q = P2 hyperspace That's an antique, it is completely silent but it is the very first dogfight game.

Robert Posted November 18, 2022 Share Posted November 18, 2022 After a bit more button mashing I was able to get it to play. The first problem is there's 4 settings on the screen which can't be adjusted. One of the them specifies 2 players, so therefore you need at least 2 coins in. If you know how to adjust those settings, tell me. Another bug I noticed is when F3 is pressed it's supposed to reset the game but instead it goes completely black. If the settings can be adjusted then I'll add it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Robert Posted November 18, 2022 Share Posted November 18, 2022 OK, those things are in the dipswitches. So the game can be played and I'll add it now. So if you want to play single player, go to the dips and choose single player. Then it will all work as expected. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
r0n1n Posted December 1, 2022 Author Share Posted December 1, 2022 Sorry, I'm a bit late on this one but life forced me to focus on other things. I always thought that the game was two player only, even if the menu was a bit confusing... Thanks for adding it, it's a real pleasure to find a dev as reactive as you. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
