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.

This is a space shooter I haven' found any notion of in the forums here so far.

It's good for a quick fight with some quite good cut scenes and (in the german version) nice voice acting. 😉

You start as young alpha 4 and work your way up to alpha 1 on doing mainly escort missions in space and over planet surfaces. Even "only" escort the missions are action packed.

With each mission solved you got access to another upgrade but you have to chose between weapon, protection or engine upgrade, a bit like Dark Star One.

The draw back is, that the story about humanity getting involved in a galactic spanning conflict between what seems to be kind of an alien alliance and the "arcturus boys". From what is told in the game it seems, that this alliance is some far developed society, but with an interesting kind of humor, that already knows about humanity and each and every other race. But unfortunatly you only meet the acturians in their combat ship and this snippery alliance guys.

After the last missions, that comes too fast, none of the story elements is solved, what leaves one unsatisfied with a feeling that there shoud be at least three follow ups to tell the rest of the story. 😐

Here's a link for a free demo download: http://www.winload.de/download/58025/Spiele/Action/Project.Freedom-1.html and some screenies.

Yeah I knew about this game I actually have it. It's full title is 'Space Interceptor: Project Freedom'. I didn't have an official post on it but I did have a link on the link list but original developer has pulled the page entirely so I removed the link. Pretty decent game and the graphics are actually pretty good since it was a budget release, the arcade shooter gets pretty tough.

That game is definitely worth $3 and the gfx are still really good for coming out a few years ago and the gameplay isn't that bad at all. It is definitely a arcade style shooter like Bang! Gunship Elite and you just do mission after mission as you progress through the areas but the ships and the weapons are fun.

Just got a copy of Project Freedom only played a couple of levels so far, pretty fun game and as other have said very arcade like, a bit of a 3D shmup. Does some what remind me of videos I have seen of Project sylpheed on the 360.
