You have no idea how funny it is to be playing this going "oh okay another invaders-like, I get it" and then a fucking Galaxian shows up and its literally called a Galaxian in the game. Also, the arcade cabinet is incredibly loud, and involves a bit-crushed voice yelling at you and when you die it goes "HA HA HA" as slow and robotically as possible. Beautiful.
This game was originally meant to be a Star Trek game, it’s Frog spelled backwards due to some guy in college having that as his nickname, and it literally copies from both Space Invaders AND Galaxian in the same game. Never thought a game called GORF would be such a clusterfuck just by existing. Oh, and it is good, I guess.

GORF (Galactic Orbiting Robot Force) is a Fixed Shooter, same as Galaga, Galaxian, Space Invaders, etc. The difference is that Gorf has the best name because Gorf sounds hilarious. Which, for the record, Gorf is just Frog backwards- and Frog was a nickname given to programmer Jamie (then Jay) Fenton.
Also, Gorf was originally meant to be a game for Star Trek: The Motion Picture.
Gorf is pretty cool.

Far inferior to Galaga
I remember this one from playing as a kid but recently tried it again. Its weird. The way firing the bullets work took a bit to get the hang of. You can only have 1 bullet on screen at a time so you can't spam them without destroying you're previous shot... the upside is if you notice you shot was misaligned you can go ahead and try again. Odd game but still a good time.
Wtf, são 5 jogos em 1
GORF is fucked up.
GORF is space travel if you were suffocating inside of a trash bag.
GORF is a dance of lasers smashing through ear-splitting TV static.
GORF doesn't give a shit that you can tell it has completely stolen half of its design from other games of the time.

GORF is fucking rad.
