Flight Commander is a space combat game in the style of Wing Commander.

The Flight Commander engine was programmed from the ground up and comes with a graphical mission editor. It is designed to accommodate easy modding, using standard formats for images, sounds, and 3d graphics. All game stats can be changed easily with a text editor.

For the more advanced missions, scripting is done with the user-friendly but powerful Lua scripting language. All scripting commands are well documented, and many examples are included for a variety of missions.
