It's absolutely mind-blowing at how well you recreated the original "Star Tours" ride using Adobe Flash despite its limitations. It feels like a faithful remake of the ride in Flash; every scene has been recreated super well even though there are some limitations that you needed to get around with the Flash technology. With the original ride gone and replaced with "The Adventures Continue", this is a great way to experience the original award-winning attraction. How did I not know about this back in 2004? Young me would've probably flipped my shit back in the day had I known about it around the time it came out. Despite how old this remake is, it still holds up incredibly well and reminds me of the good old days of Newgrounds. It is super impressive how you managed to fit all of this in a simple program like Flash. I tip my hat to you, this is incredible and, in some ways, pushes Flash to its absolute limits. Great job!

UPDATED JULY 28th 2008. No, I'm not dead, and no Mocktroid Prime will never be finished, stop asking. I have been in a state of doing little to no work in flash for the past while, but I tweaked a little bit here and there for this update, and improved the sound quality, (hence the jump in file size) re-inserted sound clips (clearer ones, not just recorded from the ride itself) the only things still missing are 3-PO's safety video at the beginning (which is noticeably skipped) and you cannot see Denis Muren and his crew in the control tower, yet. I have gotten married and have a baby on the way, so the past few months have been busy for me. So, hopefully this tides you over until I add the few last touches. Thanks for your patience!
UPDATED February 28 2008. A few additions here and there. mostly the repair bay sequence is more detailed. a few things I still want to add, so it may be updated again in the future :) As well, I added a feature that was planned, but never shot for the original. as the Starspeeder exits the comet we were supposed to see a reflection of the ship and the passengers. you will now see this in my version. Even people will be added in due time ;)
Finally, after WAY too long of a wait, it has been (mostly) completed! Now with more Ira Keeler then ever before!
Thank you for those who love this,those who inspired me to complete it, thank you George Lucas, for creating the Star Wars universe, and most importantly, Thank you Lucasfilm and Disney for not issuing me a cease and decist order yet :)
