Space Pizza Delivery?
 
I remember a game from when I was a kid, but I've forgotten the name; anyone know it? Here's some of the elements of the game;

-Took place in space
-Undefined period/era of time, but very sci-fi
-As far as i can remember, the main race of the game (or maybe there were multiple ones)? were either dragons or aliens, and MAYBE humans
-Was a semi-educational game if I remember
-Was very, very cartoony in it's graphics, not realistic at all
-Objective of game was to deliver pizzas
-There were some space-racing parts, but they were not fully controllable
-You had a rival competitor who always seemed to steal your deliveries
-Very vibrant colors
-A lot of the game had dialogue (not spoken, just text)
-Game had slight depth of storyline/character development/etc.

Anyone at all remember this game? I remember having it bought for me when I was no older than 8 or so, probably even younger than that (i'm 22 now; born in '85)

Nope, that's not it.

This game had very, very high quality artwork (even though it was cartoony); think not as good as Disney, but better than most saturday morning cartoons.

I have to draw blank on this... ...or is it Little Caesars Fractions Pizza by any chance?

nope, definitely not that either. This took place in outer space and at space stations, for sure.

You MAY have been delivering other things besides pizzas, by the way.

The description sounds accurate, but after playing it, nope, that's not it either.

I forgot to put this in the first post (can't believe I did, as it's a huge part of the game);

As I said it's text-based dialogue a lot of the time, but during the text scenes, the game's in a first person view (actually, it's in a 1st person view most of the game, even without text dialogue), and the artwork is 90% hand-drawn, not much 3D graphics/models in the game at all.

Imagine something like a point & click game + educational + first person view, with cartoony graphics set in sci-fi space, and you've got the game i'm thinking of.

Pretty sure I'm barking up the wrong tree here, but what comes to mind is something from Legend Entertainment:
