This is the intro sequence for "Galaga" running on MAME, the arcade emulator.

Galaga is a Japanese shoot-em-up arcade game developed and published by Namco Japan and by Midway in North America in 1981. It is the sequel to 1979's Galaxian. The gameplay of Galaga puts the player in control of a spacecraft which is situated at the bottom of the screen, with enemy aliens arriving in formation at the beginning of a stage, either trying to destroy, collide, or capture the spaceship, with the player progressing every time alien forces are vanquished.

Galaga is one of the most commercially and critically successful games from the golden age of arcade video games. The arcade version of it has been ported to many consoles, and it has had several sequels.

This game was featured in an episode of "Dara O Briain's Go 8 Bit" which aired in the UK in May 2017.
