Star Wolves; Old Ben's first look at this beautiful yet frustrating good old game. OK for 79 cents!

Sorta kinda botched the last part of the tutorial, as this time the ship wasn't firing the pew-pews at the practice targets and the finite ammo stuff left boom-sprites on screen rather than complete the animation. So, it's a slight bit janky at random, and I'm not entirely sure why it didn't seem to work right. Still kinda fun regardless, though I'm not sure how much I'm looking forward to the campaign if the enemies won't go boom, while of course my ships would....

The cartoon of the intro is slightly reminiscent of one of my favorite cartoons from when I was a kid, Roughnecks: Starship Troopers Chronicles (and, no, snoopers who would misuse information, that's not something used in "security" questions, so why don't you find work on Upwork rather than try to steal from the poor again?! -_- ).

ANYWAYS... it's normally a couple bucks, but for now it was on sale on GOG for 79 cents, so IMO it was worth the buy. If my attempt here isn't downvoted away, I might bother with the campaign. Or, well, I don't really check that nowadays anyhow, so I probably will get to it regardless of however rude random jerks may be.

I do intend to do more of the OpenRA Combined Arms, Homeworld 2 & Emergence, and StarCraft Brood Wars campains as well, though momentarily my Asperger's fixations have been upon the Space Commander: War & Trade and the SpaceCom: Tactical Space Command games. It's difficult for me to focus on anything that's not a fixation, so when those are again I'll do them in a huge batch and space the videos out over a few days or so.
