# Galaxian2: reimplementing Galaxy on Fire 2 in Godot

> Galaxian2 reimplements Galaxy on Fire 2 as a Godot engine using content imported from the player's Mac Full HD or Android HD release. The importer prepares ships, missions, audio and other resources locally and reads static declarations from the original executable. The source describes a playable campaign and add-ons with release-specific content paths.
