Galaxy Man is ridiculously easy. He's probably the easiest robot master in the game.

He has two modes of attack. His first, and least dangerous one, is to fly way high up in the air and send out a black ball that will home in on you and then turn into a black hole after a few seconds. The ball is faster than you, but has some killer momentum which you can use to your advantage. It can't turn on a dime like you, so you can turn quickly and run the other way as it passes you by to get some good distance on it by the time it turns into a black hole. Once it does it'll start sucking you in. As long as you're running away from it there's no problem. Galaxy Man will also now teleport and stand beneath it, hoping you'll get sucked in and brush against him. Like I said, as long as you're running away you won't be damaged. However, if you have a good distance between it, this can be a good spot to shoot Galaxy Man once or twice. Simply turn around for a microsecond and shoot once, then turn around and continue running away. You should get sucked in a little but if there's some distance it won't be enough to damage you.

After the black hole ends, Galaxy Man will teleport to his safe spot high up. Be careful here because after a few seconds he will fall down, and you don't want to be beneath him when that happens. If possible, try to learn how long it takes for him to fall so you can time it so that when he does, you're on the side with the most space. In any case, immediately after he falls is a great chance to shoot him.

After a couple seconds, he may either fly up and do his black hole move again, or he might do his second, more dangerous attack. The more dangerous attack is simply to fly across the room. Try to get some moderate distance away from him in anticipation. Since he will either do this move or fly up, and the latter can't hit you, always assume he will do the move. Jump over him to dodge it, and then stand in the middle of the room at the ready to jump some more in case he makes more passes. After he makes a pass and lands on one side of the room is another opportunity to shoot him while you wait for the next one.

That's pretty much all there is to him. A pretty easy boss to take with the mega buster.
