Download the Star Fleet _ X-Bomber and Star Fleet the Arcade Game Super Pack, containing all executables, source and music for both projects.

Introduction

Star Fleet: Arcade was a retelling of the Star Fleet TV show in video game format.
The game consisted of a number of genres, including:

Vertical, 360' and horizontal-scrolling space shooter missions by me
Platforming and fighting levels by Dave Surridge / Zordon

It was a stellar game for its time but, in the end, we both ended up working on other things and didn't have the option to finish it.

Levels

To try and make sure that nothing went to waste, pretty much everything that I made for Star Fleet: Arcade found its way into X-Bomber the Game ...

The first level; Moonbase was incorporated into X-Bomber's training mission.
I still plan to incorporate a freighter escort mission into X-Bomber in order to incorporate the gameplay from level 2.
A good deal of level 3 was incorporated into X-Bomber's mission 3.
Level 4 was incorporated into X-Bomber when you revisit Sargasso in mission 7 of X-Bomber.
Level 5 was effectively incorporated into X-Bomber when the Dai-X became a player ship along with X-Bomber.

Development History

The way Star Fleet: Arcade was developed was really good because the project was pretty-much-always 'demo-ready'. All the levels that we started were all complete and playable.
