Vega Strike is a first-person space trading and combat simulator, developed for Microsoft Windows, Linux, FreeBSD[1] and OS X systems. Many of the core game mechanics of Vega Strike are indirectly inspired by Elite. Other games, such as Wing Commander: Privateer, influenced the original developer.[2]
