Sega genesis game, but it was also on PC I think. Really good.

I love this game, only discovered it in the early 2000's and played it on emulator. The genesis version is my favourite and its very deep and complex. I don't think I've ever gotten very far with it, but I love the concept.

It was\is really complex, the original had no "do over" unless you copied the floppy disk and played the copy.

I did find this jem of a walk thru.

I played Starflight a lot on Commodore 64. Never got too far but I always enjoyed exploring. Game was crazy ahead of its time.

the Genesis/Megadrive version is way better overall tho, that's my go-to for emulating the game
