This video game takes place in the future using an outer space atmosphere. It features the racing of futuristic craft that can battle each other for finishing spots in the race. Each craft is also upgradeable and with each upgrade comes better shielding and weapons. This video game would become the inspiration for the Super NES video game Rock n' Roll Racing.[citation needed] Primitive voice effects are used when the ships collide with each other; three of the phrases are: "Hey!," "Excuse me!," and "Watch it.[2]"
8-Bit Central gave Galaxy 5000 a thumbs basically saying that its a “fun” game while praising the game’s “crafty” driving.[3]
