May just be childhood nostalgia, but I remember this game being a lot longer. That said, the only part of it that suffers for that short length is the story, it's characters growing and bonding almost totally off-screen. Thankfully, the levels themselves are most fun as heck, often recalling the high-flying thrills of Crimson Skies. There are some annoying design decisions (enemy hits sending your ship careening off-course for one) but in all, Starfighter is a fun one.
