Starship Command

Starship Command is an exciting game in which you chase alien craft across the universe, and either ram them, shoot them, or spare them - according to your whim, and your energy level.

The display is divided into two, a view of deep space (with your ship in the centre), and a status display of the various functions available. These include shields, scanners, ship orientation, acceleration, score, and energy level.

As you boldly roam the universe, your ship remains stationary while the rest of the display advances, retreats, and revolves disconcertingly about you. So mastering the controls is the key to the game.
