VSU: Black Paralysis

Black Paralysis is set in the Vega Strike universe. You are a dockyard worker on a Confederate research base. At least, that's who you used to be. Now the future of the Confederacy, and even your own survival, are no longer assured. Be all you can be, or be nothing at all.

Privateer Remake

Privateer Remake is at this stage a complex modification to Vega Strike based on the original privateer design and concept as an available stand-alone game. Due to the fact that the sourcecode is offered free to download it's a common named "open source" piece of software.
