Basically, you are the captain of a starship that you select the crew for (you can pick different races for each position each with their own strengths and weaknesses) and you can upgrade your ship with better armor, shields, engines, etc. You need to go from planet to planet (i believe the game even included a fold out map of the galaxy) and collect minerals, alien creatures, etc. and trade them for cash, which you can then use to upgrade the ship or train the crew.
Starflight 1 and 2. Excellent games, both. |

Starflight I, Starflight II
Hello folks,
im looking for a game i played when i was young  its kind of a space exploration game with about 800 planets to explore (NOT elite) and a genious story about every sun in the galaxy becoming supernove from the right side to the left side of the galaxy. the hero, his ship and the crew had to find out what starts the novae (they where not naturally) and the solution where a crystalline lifeform that tried to save themselfe because mankind used the crystalline lifeform as fuel. there was a part 2 of this game with an almost better story... this game was ingeniuos 15-20 years ago... delivered on 1 or 2 diskettes... 800 planetsurfaces to explore (i think they described the landscape with some fractal formulas), upgradeable spacesships, different races, wars and so on... the game was CGA graphics and was available on pc and apple bye, glen |

It's surprising that nobody has tried to do a modern remake of either title.

However, it seems that and the others I came across are not going to be completed soon, if at all.
