AVAFlight 1.0.0 is the first release of this unofficial recreation of Starflight (1986, DOS). It is a self-contained single-file build for Windows, Linux and macOS, and plays offline as a single-player game. You don't need to install .NET.

Unofficial fan project, not affiliated with or endorsed by Electronic Arts or Binary Systems. All text, art and audio are newly created, and no original game data is included.

AVAFlight gameplay: driving the terrain vehicle across a jungle world, with the ship, wildlife, crew status and the terrain-vehicle menu

What's in it

  • Starport: crew hiring and training, ship configuration, trade depot, bank, Interstel notices.
  • Hyperspace and in-system flight, with fluxes, nebulae, flaring stars and fuel management.
  • Planet survey, plus the terrain vehicle: minerals, lifeforms, ruins and storms.
  • Alien diplomacy with ten races and entities, each with documented quirks.
  • Real-time combat.
  • The full story, through to the Crystal Planet.
  • Classic preset (1986 behaviour) and Modern preset (same rules, plus an automatic captain's log, waypoints, a fuel-range ring, tooltips and named saves).
  • Keyboard, mouse and gamepad controls; remappable keys; font scaling; high contrast; synthesised chiptune audio.

Each binary was smoke-tested on its native GitHub runner and reached the main menu. See KNOWN_ISSUES for what has not been verified yet, including interactive audio on Windows and macOS and physical gamepads, and GAMEPLAY for the player guide.
