Default Interstellar Flames coming soon to a galaxy near you

http://www.xengames.com/

Anyone else remember the Wing Commander series of PC games? This screen shot reminds of an earlier version. I hope it's easier to control than Wing Commander - by Wing Commander IV, I couldn't dogfight my way out of a paper bag. ;-)



"As a pilot for the rebellion against the evil galactic Imperium the salvation of the free universe is in your hands. Fly dangerous missions against huge imperial battle cruisers, dogfight with enemy fighters in asteroid fields, and destroy vital enemy installations."

� Wide variety of mission types and settings
� Huge selection of different ships and weapon systems
� A true polygon 3D engine with texture mapping and Gouraud shading
� Optimised in ARM assembler for maximum speed

Interstellar Flames will be released initially for the Compaq iPaq in March.

Default Nice One

Fair play, that does look very nice indeed. Power hungry, but impressive nonetheless.

Default Trial version

I hope there is a trial version... I remember when all the buzz was about with Chopper Alley only to find that there were serious limitations. Still, Chopper Alley set the bar a bit higher. I hope we keep seeing innovative work like this. Couple this with the new DirectPlay API and I think we can have an online PocketPC gaming bonanza!

"Remember the Wing Commander series?" I worked on it! You're making me feel old, Jason!
