# Background Information
This game was primarily inspired by Amiga's title Deluxe Galaga but the Nintendo galaga games also had something to do with this project. Originally we wanted to make a quick game, a simple space shooter to be made in one week. And, surprisingly (considering that it was my second game in Actionscript) we have managed to pull it in the designated time. The biggest problem was the art of course, Aleks had to model and then render all the graphics. Unfortunately the game never paid off as it did not find a sponsor. It was well liked by site-lockers and a sequel is due to happen... Someday!
