(Published video has micro stutters in it. I'm not sure why as it ran super smooth. It probably has to do with the video capture software.)

Thoughts:
Thoughts: This is actually a pretty good port of Galaxy Force, though it has some issues. The good things make it stand out from the rest of the home console ports. Due to the power of the Towns, the game does reach fairly close to the games original speed, unlike the console versions, which didn't reach it until the Saturn port in the mid-90s. Also, since the Towns was able to use CDs, the game does use a very strange red book audio soundtrack. The soundtrack reminds me of the music they used in R-Type Complete CD on the Turbo Grafx 16/PC Engine. The resolution is toned down a bit as well though not by too much. The parts that really suck about this port is that you have zero continues and no way to recharge your shield. In the arcade version, you could continue in any stage other than the 6th stage. So, if you run out of energy, it's game over, man! Overall, the port isn't too difficult until you get to stage 4, where there is a big difficulty spike. I'd recommend checking this port out. Actually, the Afterburner port on the Towns is pretty good too. That one has a pretty awesome rock soundtrack.
