Does Galaga ever end?
Although the game has no ending level there is a bug at the 255th level where you’ll get a game over instantly after you pass the stage. This may be because of the kill screen on Level 256.

Is there a galaga 2?
Galaga ’91 was released in Europe in August 1993, where it was published by Sega and renamed Galaga 2. Its localized name has become a point of confusion, as Galaga was the follow-up to Galaxian and a North American upgrade kit for Gaplus was titled Galaga 3. Galaga 3 (1984) Gaplus is the third game in the Galaxian series, and a direct sequel to 1981’s Galaga. A mod kit was later released to change the name to Galaga 3, possibly to increase recognition, even though there was no Galaga 2. Galaga 3 from the off, is a far more hectic game than many early 80s shooters.It is the third sequel to Galaxian (1979), following Galaga (1981) and Gaplus (1984). It features significantly improved graphics over the previous games in the series, including detailed backgrounds, larger enemies and greater ship details.
