I'm not able to get the file. It brings up an error message stating that the applet could not be installed, and "clicking here" doesn't do anything but bring up the same window. What kind of Nazi site requires an applet for downloading files?

u played or asking first?
its a mini version of freespace 2, using freespace2 art, but its 3rd person. its kinda like asteroids but betta. i got the idea when i let my little brother to play fs2, and he blew up everything in sight, complaining that it would be better if u didnt have to follow orders. then i was making games to sell at meh family christmas party, while playin wit model view in another window. i looked at a myrmadon from top view, then went back to my game codin program. then my slow mind gradually figured out that this was the cue for me to get some sort of inspiration and make a game. i was bored with the arcade style racing game i was making so i decided to try to make a freespace game, with the pics from model view. the idea kinda got outa hand and now ive got disks full of various editions of the game, and aside from the version ive released now, ive got another one ready to come out.

BTW, why do the maras randomly dissapear sometimes and the missiles go off and do their own thing?

Nope, that was Starship Troopers
hehehe
What could be nice is a couple of seconds 'subspce warp' before the Maras actually appear, so you can get out of their way
