Star Jammer (Salamander)

Starjammer is a three dimensional jaunt through the universe. The idea of the game is as the sole fighter pilot to protect the colonized planets from alien marauders (a bit battlestar galacticaish).

You control your acme galactic fighter by use of the right joystick. Your ship has shields which lose power after heavy fire from the aliens but they automatically recharge. When your lasers overheat from your itchy trigger finger they also recharge to a full five short bursts of fire. To make this game even more interesting you are sometimes sucked into stargates which transport you into another quadrant.

Although I found the game boring it does use good graphics and sound so you should be able to zap many aliens in your galaxy.
