Do you remember the old games in which we had to move through space in a small ship trying to eliminate all the obstacles and enemies who wanted to destroy us? Although these types of titles have gradually disappeared, there are still some similar entertainment games we can install on our computers whenever we want to have fun.

Today it's time to talk about Project Starfighter, one of the best proposals in this segment. It attracts attention, mainly because it reminds us of those games of yesteryear, with retro graphics but with more than an exciting challenge. It is a shooting game in space, developed in a two-dimensional environment, in which you will have to move around trying to eliminate the opposing forces.

The game's main objective is to use our ship and the weapons we collect as we move forward to free the world from the company WEAPCO, which threatens to destroy everything in its path if no one does anything to prevent it. In our favor, we have the ship itself and the indications and tips the game gives us as we advance the levels waiting for us.

When we open the game, we will find that it has many aspects in common with the traditional arcade games that most know. However, unlike others in that segment, each of the missions differs from the previous ones. You'll see that it's not just about eliminating opponents; sometimes, it will even be more vital that you put all your efforts into defending your ship than anything else.

There are some specific missions in which your main objective will be none other than to protect an allied ship that is trying to sail through space to reach a certain point and that has hired you for its security. In these cases, it will be imperative for you to see the possible dangers approaching and get rid of them before they cause damage.

The missions are not only divided by types or purposes, but each has a hierarchy assigned to them, so the reward for completing them will differ in each case. Of course, as you leave the first levels behind, you will learn all these details, and your assistant will tell you the particularities of the following missions.

Project Starfighter has more than 25 missions that we have to complete to say that we have completed the game, although you should also know that these missions are divided into four different star systems between them. This means you can organize your progress through outer space as you want, whether you intend to do it level by level or complete a star system and then another. That is up to each user.

Regarding the weapons we can take with us, you will see that they are divided into primary and secondary, according to their relevance. To give you an idea, we can say that cannons are part of the primary weaponry, while other weapons that cause less damage to enemies are considered secondary weaponry.

Among the main strong points of Project Starfighter, we can mention that it is a free entertainment proposal that hardly consumes system resources, so that we can run it on any computer; on the other hand, the challenge is exciting once we leave behind the initial levels.

As for the graphics of Project Starfighter, we have to say that no one can feel disappointed because it is nothing more and nothing less than a two-dimensional title of displacement in space, with the positive and negative that entails. Indeed, if you want to entertain yourself by remembering the yesteryear times and the fun we could have had when technology was not so advanced, this game will undoubtedly fill your eyes.

Of course, it is impossible not to mention the music that helps to complete the title's atmosphere, considering that it generates an authentic galactic war experience that integrates us with the missions to be developed. You can always lower the game's volume if you find it annoying or want to listen to your favorite music while you play.

Who do we recommend downloading this game to? Whether you are a gamer, who wants to relive the kind of entertainment that drove us crazy in the 80s and 90s or a younger player who wants an entirely different kind of fun. If you do not care so much about the graphics and want to move through space to get rid of all the enemies on the screen, this game is for you.
