	Star Control - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		Star Control II: The Ur-Quan Masters (officially "II", often written as "2") was written by Toys for Bob (Fred Ford and Paul Reiche III) and originally published by Accolade in 1992 for PC; it was later ported to the Macintosh, and the 3DO with an enhanced multimedia presentation, allowed by the CD technology.
		Star Control II was highly influenced, both in story and game design, by the games Starflight (1986) and Starflight 2: Trade Routes of the Cloud Nebula (1989), developed by Binary Systems and released on a variety of platforms by Electronic Arts.
		Star Control 3 was developed by Legend Entertainment, hired by Accolade to create a sequel when the original creators expressed their disinterest in churning out a sequel right away.

	Orz (Star Control) - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		The Orz appeared as yellow parrotfish-like creatures in Star Control II.
		In Star Control II, the Orz seemed to have displaced the Androsynth, who were apparently conducting experiments with other dimensions.
		Star Control 3, made without the original designers, provided many answers and additional data - in particular, revealing the Orz to be the thralls of the Eternal Ones - which were promptly rejected by Star Control fans in a feat of krypto-revisionism.

	The History of the Star Control Universe
		"Star Control", the recently established wing of the United Nations' military forces, made several attempts to evict the clones, but each time their ships approached, they were burnt to ashes by colossal MASER weapons that Androsynth scientists had fashioned out of formerly benign energy broadcast units.
		On March 16, 2134, Star Control Captain I. Burton, a highly respected 28-year old female Human, was leading a task force of heavy cruisers on a deep recon into what was believed to be a friendly sector near the Zeeman-Vela star cluster.
		Star Control reconnaissance ships had reported that a large Hierarchy task force was hurtling toward the Vela star system.

		The first of the series, Star Control: Famous Battles of the Ur-Quan Conflict, featured the basic Spacewar-style melee combat (as it was called, even though the ships actually fired projectile weapons at each other) engine as well as a strategic game with a three-dimensional cluster of stars as the terrain.
		Boasting incredible 3D graphics, Star Control is the first-ever 12-megabit game, and it uses the capacity to bring you 15 detailed scenarios.
		Star Control holds large star maps, starship factories, a definitive space-combat simulator, interstellar exploration, and more.

	Review - Star Control 3 (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-21)
		Star Control 3 attempts to meld the two into a complete intergalactic adventure of strategy and diplomacy.
		When Star Control 3 was announced to be released by MacSoft, I responded with a huge "huh?" Mac gamers who don't venture too far into PC games won't be familiar with this Accolade title, and even some who do try to keep tabs on PC games won't know it.
		Star Control and Star Control 2 were both rather well-received games in the PC world, and the release of version 3 in 1996 was the fulfillment of great anticipation by many PC gamers.

		Featuring 14 inventive and unique ships and an intuitive control scheme reminiscent of Asteroids, the combat in Star Control II was highly entertaining against the challenging computer and especially against a friend.
		The 18 different races in Star Control II were all distinctively different, and none of them fit the generic science-fiction stereotypes that have always been so common in games.
		Star Control II is easily one of my all-time favorite computer games, and one of those games that makes me feel privileged having played it--I felt like I'd dug up a chest full of gold doubloons when I discovered that game, it was so unbelievably good.

		While Star Control revives several classic game themes, it improves on them all and gives you plenty of options.
		Star Control allows you to define your keys, and that really helps the playability.
		Star Control works just fine on a floppy-only system, but to run it on anything less than an AT-class machine requires stripping off a lot of the visual and audio features that you wouldn't want to miss.

		As you travel out among the stars, your decisions and actions will directly affect the destiny of 18 intelligent, star-faring species, including the inhabitants of Earth.
		Star Control II is only in part a sequel to Star Control, which focused exclusively on the strategy and tactics of the bitter Ur-Quan Slave War (known by the philosophical as the Great Crucible of Sentience).

		Star Control 3 in many ways can be considered an upgrade of Star Control 2 in almost every way.
		The Hypermelees are fought in the same way as in the originals, with ships still succumbing to the effects of their inertia as the attempt to maneuver around enemy gunfire, and the annoying gravity wells of nearby planets.
		In all Star Control 3 is a good game that maintains the excitement and feeling that made it's predecessors classics, while adding enough improvements to insure it's niche in gaming history.

		The survivors of this research team had come across the controls to a Starship factory and used it to build a Precursor supply vessel: one of the largest vessels in the galaxy.
		Star Control 2 is a game based on exploration, space combat, diplomacy and resource gathering.
		Combat utilizes the same engine as the first Star Control game, where action is controlled from a top view and influenced by the gravity of nearby planets.

	Star Control 3
		After setting your ship on a collision course with the enemy battle platform, the Sa-Matra (Star Control 2), you escaped in a tiny pod ship, thinking that you could outrun the enormous energies released in the final explosion that could destroy the vessel......
		Every screen (except dialogue screens) has what are called "common controls"; these buttons switch you among the four main screens that you use in playing the game.
		This was the flaw with the first one, then in Star Control 2 I was so delighted to see a 2D top-down map of the galaxy.

		I just finished it for the second time, and it is a fun read because i'm such a fanatic about the game, however to anyone familiar with the star control universe, which I have been for 10 years, it is truly pitiful.
		The book is quite readable, but for anyone who has never played the star control series, I would say it would be quite impossible to know what is going on.
		This book would be good for those that are familiar with the Star Control universe, otherwise it may be too confusing for those that aren't.

		(Stars within each field remain fixed relative to each other.) The largest stars are the best guide for determining a ship's true state of motion, as the smaller stars can appear to move even if the ship in question is stationary.
		Note that blue stars may appear white as they revolve into the foreground of the cluster.
		Hierarchy ships are prompted by default to move to the southern-most of those stars; Alliance ships are prompted by default to move to the northern-most of those stars.

		Star Control is probably one of the best games for 2d top down space combat, in creating Dreamstars I have tried to improve on this combat model to create a game that takes 2D space combat into the 21st Centuary.
