Update 15th April '23 - Bug fixes!

Hi - in this latest update I've attempted to better detect and handle running on PC's with 8gb and less.

Previously the game could use ~2gb of memory when running. Now it's around ~500mb when on a PC with 8gb or less, a 4x saving. This also should improve the frame rate.
A log I received from a player experiencing the 'black screen' issue indicated it could be related to running very low on available memory. Hopefully this update will fix this.
Thanks for reading!

The hope is that this will help players who experienced the black screen issue mentioned in the forums. I've unfortunately never been able to repro. this myself (my laptop has 16gb), so I can't be 100% sure -however if you are and you have, please do share your log and I'll see what I can do. (more info on how in the forums). Thanks, mikey (madeofdinosaurs).

Update for Dec 29th.

Hope you all had a great Holiday. This update has some minor tweaks:

Detection of vJoy to fix odd menu bug. You'll need to use mouse/keyboard in menus, but vJoy should continue to work in-game.
Added a hard limit to how far away Scouts can be (speculatively to see if this helps anyone who is having them spawn really far away - they should all really be reasonably close).
Debug logging added to try to identify Scout spawning bug.
Debug logging added to try to isolate reason for any instances of black screen on going into game.
Reduced the default mouse sensitivity setting, so it's not quite so twitchy (you can change it back in the menu's and it won't effect a current install, only new installs).

For the logging. if you do experience either of the above issues, you can find the log: C:\Windows\\AppData\LocalLow\MadeOfDinosaurs\Starfighter Renegade\Player.log (you may need to type 'AppData' path in manually, it's usually a hidden folder, but it is there). Thanks very much, and as always - any issues please let me know and I'll see what I can do to help.

Swoop, twist and boost your Starfighter through unique landscapes, defending them from the invading alien threats!

Encounter a wide range of Alien fighters to battle.
Stop the Aliens spreading their deadly terraforming virus.

Exhilarating Aerial Combat!

Master the controls of your Starfighter, dive and roll between bursts of enemy fire to take out your target. You'll discover a wide range of Alien craft to engage, each with their own distinct behaviours and objectives.

Fly to the Rescue

Many worlds are still inhabited. The Aliens are working to capture the helpless civilian Friendlies to work in their mines and factories. Can you rescue them before their fates are sealed?

Stop the Virus

The Aliens are spreading a terraforming virus, polluting and destroying the landscape to better suit their nefarious needs. The more virus they spread, the less you will score! Do you focus on taking out the fighters and other hostile Aliens? Or look to stop the spread and reduce its impact?

Upgrade you Starfighter

Expand your fighters load-out as you discover more advanced weaponry; better lasers, attack drones, missiles and all manor of other useful gadgets to help you take on the Aliens in a variety of different ways. Find what works best for your style, and best for your score.

Replay again and again!

Return to any world you've already visited- just for the fun of the battle, or to try different strategies and load-outs to get the highest score you can!
