To all SSC Station occupants
Thank you for the donations over the past year (2024), it is much appreciated. I am still trying to figure out how to migrate the forums to another community software (probably phpbb) but in the meantime I have updated the forum software to the latest version. SSC has been around a while so their is some very long time members here still using the site, thanks for making SSC home and sorry I haven't been as vocal as I should be in the forums I will try to improve my posting frequency.
Thank you again to all of the members that do take the time to donate a little, it helps keep this station functioning on the outer reaches of space.

Hi All,
Did anyone ever play Hellbender?
I seem to recall that I got a demo version of it with my copy of Windows 95 about 15 years ago. All I remember was that it wasn't very sophisticated, but was good fun and featured the voice of Gillian Anderson as your computer 🙂 The thumpin' soundtrack was pretty good too.
I did a quick search and found some YouTube vids:

You look good through a crosshair.
I do remember this game its just I never played it. But I made sure I added this game to the link list and will upload the demo later. Thanks for the heads up on this classic Auryx.
Thanks Darkone. Yeah, I guess it wasn't even really much of a "space sim" - more like a freeform 3D shooter in the same vein as Descent. But it certainly had space sim elements to it.

It was part of the Terminal Velocity series.

Never heard of it.
looked at the vids on youtbe and it looks like a fun game, will have to keep an eye out for a copy.
Although I think Anderson sound very flat in it, she must have been very bored when she recorded her lines.
I've played Hellbender, and other game from this series, and this is really great series. Very fast 🙂

I'm fairly sure she was trying to sound like an emotionless computer. Though actually one of the 'e's in 'E.V.E' (the name of the computer she voices) might have stood for emotion, can't remember.
