About the Game


Discover a captivating story as you try out to become a Starlight Scout.
You were once a prestigious fighter pilot, when fierce battles were waged from planet to planet in the relentless acquisition of newfound resources. Skies were painted with streaks of burnt fuel and space-age shrapnel. You flew primitive rockets with thrusters bolted crudely onto every side and fought ruthlessly just to earn your pay.

Now, as the resource wars have dwindled down to space-age scuffles, Rocket-Heroes are a relic of the past. All that's left is your burning desire to get back behind the throttle.

You apply to become a Starlight Scout, an explorer of the unknown, a charter of the uncharted, a hero to those planet-side. Master the controls of your state of the art Type I Rocket, a rugged space-craft capable of a multitude of interplanetary missions. Be guided by Maxstric- a Comet Class Starlight Scout- through the Starlight Express, a training ground for aspiring pilots. It won't be easy. Do you have what it takes?
