GALAGA Pixel Pocket Pro

The screen is crisp enough that the alien formations pop just like the cabinet at the bowling alley I grew up on, and the controls feel tight for a pocket-sized shooter. I've already burned an hour on wave four without any awkward button lag, which is exactly what I wanted.

Bought this to scratch that old arcade itch and it totally delivers. The wave mechanics are exactly like the original, so you can feel that same tension when you're the last ship left trying to dodge the formation. Quick to jump into, and it's been my go-to for five-minute breaks all week.
