"Will you able to force the Galaxians into defeat as they peel off and dive at you with ever increasing fury? Galaxians has proved to be a very popular arcade style game and comes with comprehensive sound effects."
|
|
|
|
Galaxians is very good adaptation of the arcade hit [Galaxian](/software/galaxian-659/) (Namco, 1979), for the Exidy Sorcerer.
|
|
|
|
Though graphics are in black and white due to the limitations of the computer itself, the details are sharp, the animation is smooth and the action is fast.
|
|
|
|
Some sources say that this version was released in 1978, but there is now way this might be possible as the original version of Galaxian was released in 1979. It was more likely released around 1980 or so.

The author or publisher is not known either (if you can help)...
