Out of this Galaxy

INTRODUCTION: "Captain, we are breaking Earth's orbit..." "Great. Cut us a trajectory 8 degrees down on the z plane..." "Affirmative Captain....We are coming up on the starting line..." "Wonderful. I see our friends are already here. Systems Status?" "Weapons charged...Shields charged...Engines nominal..." "I see the beacon flags are starting to flash....almost time....NOW!...Flank speed!"

DESCRIPTION: Out of this Galaxy is a space-race adventure across the galaxy and back. The adventure occurs in real-space, so the dangers are real. Meteors...Pirates....You will find them all. However, you are not alone in the galaxy. Stop along the way at space stations to upgrade your ship. Take side mission routes for a chance to find big rewards, at the cost of danger and time. Take trade routes as short-cuts. The decisions are all yours to make. The first captain to the finish line wins it all.

GAME OBJECTIVE: Be the first player to travel from the starting line to the finish line to become the winner.

GAMEPLAY: Players move their spaceship over the course, gathering treasure, upgrading their ship, and going on side quests to acquire unique items. Players dodge asteroids and fight pirates along the way, and have to return to space port for repairs should their ship become damaged.
