Flight Commander

A fan made wing commander style engine. Flight Commander already features a graphical mission editor and branching campaigns. For visual effects, a particle system is used so you can fly through explosions.

Nebulae, planets, and stars surround you. Fly any fighter from WC:Armada, WC3, WC4, Prophecy, and many ships from WC1-2. Takeoff and landing cutscenes are provided. But most importantly, every aspect of the game can be easily edited with an ordinary text editor.
