I am sorry if this has already been asked, but I don't have time to search for it right now.

I am thinking about purchasing Starshatter, but I'd like to clear something up first. Somewhere, I found something that said you can start the game as either a fighter pilot or as a starship commander, but the demo has no such option. I really enjoy the starship ops in the demo, and I'm not sure if I'm intersted in it if I have to fly half the game as a fighter pilot before I can fly the ships. Is this simply a feature that was removed from the demo to save space, or is it a feature that was never developed.

I am really intersted in the game, as it seems to have a great deal of potential, I just hope it lives up to it.

In the standard game you fly the first few missions as a fighter pilot. However, you will quickly advance far enough to start commanding the smaller cap ships, and then work your way up from there. If you start modding, the non-standard version (actually, it's just a command line code) let's you be a captain immediately.
