Stellar Assault: FSO is an independent project by fans of the Original game to create a whole new Space Flight experience for the PC. Focusing more on Classic Sega Arcade-styled gameplay, Stellar Assault FSO is meant to be a fast paced, action-packed homage to the the Arcade Shoot-em-ups of yore. Ship models and gameplay are heavily influenced by the 32x version of Stellar Assault, while the story and atmosphere is strongly guided by the Saturn Version. All in all, SA:FSO combines elements from both games to create a fresh single-player experience.
The first (and longest) piece of footage in this video is the opening mission in the game. A remake of the original opening mission found in the 32x Game, the player and a lone wingmate survive an attack on the Earth's surface to encounter a small raiding party consisting of two "Delmmer" class frigates and 12 "Twin Claw" fighter escorts.
