I have been challenged by an individual... a pretty cool guy to a high score contest.

I'm sharing my tricks with him, and subsequently anyone else that sees this, or reads this.

Tips
1. Leave the top row of red ships alive that are near the Galagas for a chance at killing the Galagas for more points.
- They're worth 1600 points diving with two red moths
- They're worth 800 points diving with one red moth
- They are worth 400 diving alone
- They are worth 150 when not diving

2. Kill the blue flies / bees / assholes as they're flying in. if they aren't there the subsequent pattern of enemies diving and shooting is somewhat easier to deal with.

3. Perfect scores are worth 10,000 points. Kill 40 dudes, make 10,000 bonus points when it is done.

4. The trifecta enemies are easier to kill with this strategy in theory.

5. Stage 6, the incoming enemies getting into formation do not attack or suicide bomb.

6. Challenge stages One and Two allow you to sit in the center while shooting at the right pace without moving much if at all.

7. Stage 10 things get dicey, enemy aggression levels increase, kill them all.

8. This should be at the top of the list. It is worth having two ships side by side for the increase width of firepower. Losing one is hard, but if you can get to stage 14 - 15 consistently you're probably good enough to get them back.

9. Center of the screen can offer you better options for SOME situations. Don't cram yourself in a corner if you can help it.

10. - insert your advice here -

I wanna know any other strategies out there. Granted I didn't look very hard for videos. I'm just sharing what I learned. If you have a quality source of information about getting better at galaga I'm all ears.
