Wow that's neat.

It was a PC game probably most famous for being a pack in for graphics cards to show off how cool hardware acceleration was. If it was a PS1 game it would have been a lateish PS1 game.

It is Incoming! In your opinion, what do you think modernized controls would look like for each of the different vehicles?

I set myself up for disappointment every single one of these.

Very difficult to take a photo of, but a lot of the noise in this photo that looks like the sort of artifacting you typically see when photographing a monitor, but it's really there. It's not an artifact of the photo.

I think about this game a lot, because it's impossible to make. You have to somehow make fun the process of learning to fly instruments, and actually make that fun and engrossing in itself that somebody could get good enough at it that they would notice when things are going wrong.

Then as time goes on, weird things start happening with your instruments, with the radio. You start seeing lights and things out the window that don't make sense. Your dinky little home field is suddenly receiving men in black. You get a close encounter in the air or two with a UFO, and then aliens.
