Released in 1985 by Nichibutsu, Cosmo Police Galivan is an action-platformer for the Arcade. Players control a cyborg police officer exploring multi-directional scrolling levels, fighting through hostile alien environments. Starting on foot, you must find power-ups that equip you with a powerful robotic combat suit to enhance your attacks and durability.
How to Play
Your objective is to navigate the cavernous bases, defeat enemies, and destroy the bosses waiting at the end of each area. Use the Arrow keys to move, Z to attack, and X to jump. Press Shift (or 5) to insert a coin, and Enter (or 1) to start.
Tips
- Collect the blue POW items as quickly as possible to equip your robotic armor; it grants you a powerful laser attack and lets you absorb an extra hit.
- Be careful when jumping between platforms, as falling into pits will instantly cost you a life regardless of your armor.
