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.

What Space ship game?

I remember playing a Space Ship game, when I was younger.

Belive it was around 1995.

You saw the Space Ship from above, and it was centered in the screen.

The ship was flying forward through astroids, hostile spaceships etc., and when you shot different thing, you could enlarge your spaceship, so it got wider, more guns etc. etc.

Any Idea?

I assume it was a 2D game? Vertical scrolling or side scrolling? Or was it more like asteroids (with a ship that is always in the center of the view)

First game that came to my mind is Raptor Call of the shadows. But I'm not sure its that game since the players craft is a fighter jet, although there are some enemies that look like space ships I guess.

Sorry, not that game either.

The way the Space Ship flew, was just like Raptor.

Maybe you could accelrate forward and backwards, and move from site to site.
