Hello

[German Garage Games]

Father and son here from Germany.
We just started our first restoration project together.
The arcade cabinet we bought ? Moon Alien.
Joined the forum to learn about restoring and get some help from the community .

Welcome …. Moon Alien .. loved it !
Back in the 80s we called it the Galaxian with “bendy bullets” as the shots can be steered by moving the ship left or right.

Handy if the shot enters the alien pack missing the first row but dodging the approaching bombs it can be a bit annoying trying to hit the last one or two aliens of each level…. Nice to know another may survive as they soon went out of favour 4 decades ago as platform games and 4 way joysticks became more popular.

Good luck with the restoration as said already there’s plenty of help or past posts to reference here on restore and other topics.

Lovely to see a Father and Son Arcade Project !
We will need future generations to keep these wonderful things preserved and running.
Enjoy ! Great Memories will be made.
