About this game

Galaxy 5000 takes Grand Prix racing into outer space, putting you behind the controls of a turbo-racer competing in the ultimate interplanetary challenge.

Tracks are filled with dangerous obstacles, including land mines, gun turrets, speed zappers, warp doors, and solar spikes. Digitized sound effects add impact to the action, including a driver scream when a racer falls from the track.

Winnings can be spent repairing damage or upgrading to a more powerful turbo-craft.
