Scorring a 4/5, Starshatter is still pulling in good reviews
"Probably the most exciting thing about Starshatter is how customizable it is."
If I had a dime for every starshatter mod compliment I heard I would retire
"Even as your standard space combat game, Starshatter stands out"
"For a first crack, Starshatter is a star outing."
Good work Destroyer Studio and all you modders out there!

This must bring you old memories back, huh?
I used to play a flight sim called Fighters Anthology. I've started playing it in 1999 and stoped when I picked up SS in october 2004, so I know what you mean.[;)]
Indeed SS is a great game but "the night is still a child".
I am sure that this is only the beggining of the adventure![:D]

Let's continue with feature things:
- support for 1600x1200 resolution
- starsystems where all planets, moons and sun(s) exist as solid 3d objects and have all the stuff on them (buildings and so)
- improved AI
More when it comes to mind

Another feature request:
the ability to dock at and tractor ships/containers
just think of those tugs and transports from the x-wing series.... and of course starship troopers or "space above: and beyond" where they were also transporting containers with their shuttles, would be cool to just drop them over the target while in atmosphere
