Starfighter: Infinity

This game really has it all. Single player offline mode, coop mode only and the the full mmo experience. I only bought it for the vr mode so I cant talk about the desktop portion, but in vr I can play with the follow mode and get eye level with the ship and it's awesome. Other modes arent that good. I'd love the cockpit mode but the dips on the turning the camera goes that direction with you. Puke city. I'd only wish the static circle recital images for the players enemy's and locations were much much smaller, static large images like that isnt good for vr. Other wise this game is great. Was doubtful others still played and to my surprise I was dog fighting with other players shortly after the tutorial! Love it keep it up dev!

I've been looking for a Dark Orbit/Warpfire like game with no pay to win and a gameplay more complex than just clicking at stuff and watching it explode ; this game is more than I would have expected ! I haven't done any PvP yet, first because of my level, and second because right now the max number of online players I've seen at a time is around 8, but the game seems to handle it nicely : you can either play full multiplayer, with both allies and enemies in the universe around you, go coop and only meet allies that picked this mode too, or just play solo and be left alone while you level up your ship. This way you get to avoid what made DO so annoying, namely players with end-game gear that hunt newcomers. The game can be unforgiving at times, and you'll die a lot, but thankfully they let you buy lives (up to ten) for cheap, giving you room for error in-between your station stops. So I like to think dying is actually a mechanic in this game, and as long as you kill some stuff you get further. Map is huge with a lot of random events going on too, but I haven't seen much compared to what the game can offer.

Grouse, so deep and complex with infinite builds and ships, actually amazed at how many different kind of weapons/equipment (950 +) are available to unlock, craft or find. Pvp would be amazing (still is) if more people knew about this game and what its about. Even if you never heard of old school DG before i bet anyone that gave this a go could hardly fault it. I would still play DG today if it was online but this is DG x10. Recommended for anyone that likes ace combat dog fighting but on a 2d plane with 100x the depth and customisation. Worth every penny and then some

Fantastic. Old school vibes with the space combat with RPG progression while playing online.

Starfighter: Infinity is an odd little game. Almost directly ripped and rebuilt based on Starfighter: disputed galaxy, one of my favorite space games of all time. This game has a lot of problems, but all of them remind me of the humorous bugs of olde. Camera is wonky, the models are meh, missions are predictable and run of the mill, the combat is difficult and travel is slow. And it's perfect. There's more good ideas per space game cliche than any space game I've played. Normal game mechanics normally reserved for the UI like fast travel are integrated into the game. level upgrades are research points, fast travel has an engine cool-down ect. All of this makes for an interesting and unique space game, despite it being virtually identical in appearance to so many others. Weapons and upgrades and perfecting your ship is part of the game and arguably one of the more fun aspects. Combat is interesting as you can completely customize your weapon load-out based on how you want to fight with the ship you are currently piloting. Different weapons have different ranges, types of damage, effects, guidance systems, and behaviors. There are also non-hostile and non-lethal options for whatever goals you need accomplished. Multiplayer is basically always on, but is almost never a problem given how large the maps are. My only actual gripe other that not being able to zoom out more in top down view is that when you do actually want to play with friends, It's hard to keep track and keep up with them unless one person has a slow ship and every one else uses them as a "base". very awkward co-op multiplayer. PVP is pretty decent though. This does come with the original Starfighter, Starfighter: Defender, and Starfighter: Disputed galaxy all to play in the extras menu option. Basically its a space RPG, that really delivers where you want it to. You should probably buy it man. because the old games come with it. 8.9/10

Amazing and well balanced arcade style game.

This is quite a wonderful and cool indie game, I love it a lot. It reminds me a bit of the good old Escape Velocity, but it has its own soul and behavior. Is it worth the 20$? Imo it is. Big universe, many systems, many different ship types, factions, play on online (pvp)-server OR offline(pve)-server, a ton of different upgrade modules and weapons and quite detailed and complex mechanics to learn on how to configure and use ships, and to navigate through the universe and the systems... This is a huge compliment. Earn money by mining, complete missions, destroy enemies and take their loot. There's big dangerous bosses too, where you can get special powerful rewards (special weapons, modules, etc). when defeating them. All of this for 20$ and no other game out there offering this unique experience and the developer not abandoning what is clearly their passion project (sometimes he pops in to the game chat and you can talk to him, very cool down to earth dude (or dudette? I have no idea and who cares anyway). I'd probably buy this game again at some point, or find a way to donate. Games like this should be a part of our world. If you're a sucker for good old top down space games this is sure to scratch that itch :)

even if it is still beta access, it is pretty much a finished game.

Captivating, like HOMM3.

disputed galaxy was my childhood
