Even as a collector, I've never laid my hands on one of these. (lemmy.world)

I think playing Star Control II on 3DO might have defined who I am as a gamer, and I highly recommend playing subsequent rereleases (it was PC only without 3DO!)

I'm sure you're aware that the original developers are working on a sequel after all these years!

It's to be called Free Stars: Children of Infinity, after the series itself was renamed to Free Stars

I forgot the name but I did know about it! Kinda excited, Star Control III didn't have the same vibe. Hope these posts also encourage someone to check out II, there is a fan remake you can download for free.

Yeah, SC3 was made by different people, and SCO was made by other different people and was a bit of a series reboot.

For Star Control 2, I'd recommend Mega Mod. Tons of graphical updates, QoL features, and is completely free (of course!)
