Nice and quite simple shooter. Despite a really good 3D engine it is not a simulation and shows a bit wasted effort how to really make use of it.

This was one of the first three dimensional space games I ever played back in 92. Absolutely loved it. Despite its now ancient looking graphic, it's still a decent game to play.

It was still freely available here the last time I checked so was surprised to see GOG have hoovered up yet another great game that was free to download at one point.

I object to having to pay for it again having purchased the game as a boxed set 31 years ago. I dumped all of my floppy disks several years ago when we moved house. Regret it now.

Thankfully I did download this when it was still freely available for zero cash.

Good Old Games have taken away many of the decent games that were once considered abandonware.

STRANGE ASS GAME should be the title of this one.
controls are OFF and there doesn't seem to be any
way to configure them, you can use mouse or arrow-keys
to control your ship, not sure if you have full 360Degree
freedom of movement or not, get tie- fighter or x-wing
instead of this one.

Really loved this one back in the days! Who likes scifi games and shooters, space simulators, this was a must.

Great simulation game, have a better playability than the starwars xwing series, have a nice story too. Try to board the epic starfighter.
