Play Galaxy 5000 (Europe) Online
Dodge neon asteroids and alien swarms in a tight little spaceship—those screen-filling bosses don’t mess around, but snagging a triple-shot turns the tide. That chiptune soundtrack sticks in your head for days.

Galaxy 5000 came out for the NES in 1991, published by Activision. It was part of that wave of space shooters that filled the console's library, offering a straightforward take on the genre without a lot of frills. You got what you expected: a ship, some enemies, and a goal to push further each time.
You pilot a small spacecraft through horizontally scrolling stages, shooting down waves of alien ships and dodging environmental hazards like asteroids and energy barriers. The main objective is to survive each stage and defeat the large boss waiting at the end. Key mechanics include collecting power-ups that upgrade your weapons, such as spreading shots or lasers, and navigating tight spaces that require precise movement. The game moves at a brisk pace, and the difficulty ramps up quickly, especially when dealing with screen-filling bosses and dense enemy patterns. It feels tense and demanding, rewarding memorization and quick reflexes more than luck.
