Starfury: Refitted and Ready to Leave Spacedock!

Latest patch adds several new features!

Cary, NC, 27 January 2004

The first patch brought Starfury to version 1.08, and in between that patch and this current patch there were a number of bugs squashed, and elements of the game enhanced.

Additionally, several new features were added to the game, three of which are worth examining in detail.

By far one of the most interesting new features of Starfury is the fact that the CD is no longer needed to play the game. This is perfect for the gamer with the desk that looks like the aftermath of the Hiroshima bomb. No more searching through stacks of CDs when you have that desire to see new stars, meet exotic new species, and then blow their starships into atomic particles.

Two features that have often been requested by fans of the game are also now officially part of Space Empire: Starfury. The first feature adds an inner-system waypoint to make navigation in the systems somewhat easier. The second feature adds a visual reference to off-screen starships, similar to the idea of a padlock in a flight sim, and allows the player to have full situational awareness.

Space Empires: Starfury is the latest entry in Space Empires; Malfador Machinations' award-winning line of galactic conquest games. Unlike previous games in the series Starfury puts the player into the captain's chair, as opposed to supreme planetary ruler.

The degree of customization means that Starfury is a game that can easily last on a hard drive for years to come.
