About G-ZERO
Set in the year 2560, the world of G-ZERO unfolds amidst a backdrop of resilience and celebration. Following a fierce battle against an extraterrestrial invasion, humanity has emerged victorious, albeit at a significant cost. To commemorate this hard-won triumph, society has established the G-ZERO Grand Prix, a prestigious racing event that takes place every four years. This grand spectacle attracts

Tips and tricks
- Watch the edges of the screen, not just your character. New threats almost always enter from the sides or the top, and spotting them early gives you a full second of extra time.
- If there is a dash, jump or dodge move, treat it as a resource: use it to escape, not to attack, until you know the level.
- When you die, note exactly what killed you. The answer is usually one specific pattern, and fixing that one thing is worth more than "trying harder".
- Do not chase every bonus. Collectibles placed near danger are a trade-off the designer set for you; take them only when your position is safe.
- Because this is a Sports game, timing beats power.
