ABOUT:
Starflight The Remake is as the title suggests a Starflight 1 Remake worked on until 2008 and at the time was truly one of the most impressive Starflight fan game's ever made. It's extremely talented creator Stainless went on to work on the huge 3D remake of the Starflight III Fan Project and you can really see a lot of those impressive 3D features being developed way back when he was working on this SF1 remake. I'm not sure why Stainless stopped working on his remake, but I'm guessing it was because of his shift to the SF3 project.
However what really surprises me is just how complete his final Alpha build is! It contains a finished starbase, full space exploration of the galaxy and solar systems, impressive planet landing and take off sequences, working planet rover vehicle that can scan lifeforms and download messages from ruins, artefacts rendered in 3D, and apparently Aliens and combat too (although sadly I've been unable to encounter them). You can even get pulled over by the Space Cops (music and all) for speeding out of space dock lol!
This alpha contains an amazing soundtrack of beautiful space songs and some of the animation is truly impressive. It's such a shame this project was never finished and got to see the light of day however at least we now have a new Starflight 1 Remake on the way! If you want to check out this amazing project I'm hosting the final alpha on my site to ensure it's not lost forever. Enjoy!
If you have any questions, comments, new information, long lost materials/demos not seen here, or you just wanna discuss this old fan project feel free to comment here or start a new thread in this forum!
