Looks like a hecka' cool game... I saw this getting hyped up over at pocketgamer a few weeks back.

My real question though is...

In case you're curious, they have a bazillion more screenshots here (http://www.pdamill.com/images/anthelion/ss.html).

...how many is a bazillion?

It was a mistake. :oops: I had initially opened the screenshots page, and it looked huge... until I tried to scroll down ;)

Still nice shots, though.

I dont normally try many games but this one caught my eye. I checked it out and the graphics are very nice...very fluid. Game play seems kinda tough...maybe thats just me :oops: I'll be watching this one, I may just buy it

Does anyone know about how much this is going to retail for :?: This looks like a must have for those long rides home.

I am really interested in your feedback about the Anthelion.
What did you like the most, and what would you like to change in the final version.

Hope you enjoy playing with it! :-)

Cheers,

Wonderful Game !!! :clap: Brings back lots of Wing Commander memories. For people into space shooters, this looks like a must have.

Jason, any way of us using our subscriber discount for PDAMill on this? :D

Wing Commander, hell yeah. I was just thinking the same thing. The original kicked ass, the second one was even better, but it all went downhill on the third one. Oh yeah, and the movie, too. Mark Hamill was such a let down.

i really appriciate the MIPS version guys, although it is a tad choppy at times. Other than that, the only thing was that the game does not support all of the hardware buttons on my casio E-125. Specifically the contacts button on the bottom right of the device. if you could add support for that button i would be very thankful.

Well, I enjoyed every single episodes of the Wing Commander. Awesome gameplay, even at Pentium 2/400. I remembered how the graphic was considered state-of-the-art back then.
