Do not shoot when they get there, just do it when they leave the training to try to get as close as possible to the player and thus destroy it.
Additionally, above the Martian "common" are the "Boss Galaga." These aliens have two peculiarities:
* need two shots to be eliminated.
* have the power to use something called "Tractor Beam".
When Boss is halfway between training and the player will use a laser to try to hijack the ship. The shooting player can rescue the Boss Galaga, which will cause the hijacked ship is placed next to the present, and can shoot two bombs at the same time.
every three levels the player can participate in a "Challenging Stage" where you must shoot 40 Mars, which will make different tricks to avoid being eliminated. If they are able to eliminate them all, the game will give away 10,000 points as a reward.
