Today's Free Game Idea

It would be excellent to remake Star Co- er, excuse me, The Ur-Quan Masters in the Vega Strike engine. It wouldn't currently permit the resource-gathering portion of the game, but that was my least favorite part anyway. The most hoped-for features in Vega Strike are first-person combat and continual flight down to planets' surfaces, so one day that too may be possible. All the really good parts of the game could be implemented in the existing engine. The first step, of course, would be to come up with adequately-licensed 3D models representing each of the ships in the game, and to get them flying around and shooting each other in Vega Strike or one of the other games based on its engine.
