Starfighter 3000: Next Generation

An updated version of the 1994 game Starfighter 3000 has been released on the RISCWorld magazine CD-ROM under the name Starfighter 3000: Next Generation.

What's new?
SF:NG has new graphics, new music, new textures and lots more! Starfighter, which is arguably the best game on the RISC OS Operating System is now truly in the 21st Century.

Originally developed in 1994, Star Fighter 3000 was created by Fednet Software, which also produced other Acorn gaming greats including Stunt Racer 2000 and Chocks Away. Like Stunt Racer 2000, SF3K pits players against each other in a fierce, futuristic and televised world controlled by the media. In its latest form, dubbed Star Fighter 3000: The Next Generation, the game is 450MB in size.

It's understood efforts to tidy up the game have been on-going for the past five years, and Chris Bazley has been behind various updates and enhancements. The new title screen was drawn using Composition and Top Model, we're informed.

• The sparkling new version of Star Fighter 3000 is bundled with the latest issue of RISCWorld, a bi-monthly subscription magazine that comes on a CD, along with an article on how it all came together. See the link below for more details and prices. The magazine is published by APDL, which also sells copies of SF3K under the iSV brand.
