Carrier Command involves controlling an advanced futuristic aircraft carrier in an attempt to gain control of a chain of islands. Islands can have structures placed on them for defence and for generating resources and weapons. There is an enemy carrier out there trying to do the same.

This is however a great game with a massive flaw. The worst example I've seen of bad pacing. The action is pretty good to start, but travel between islands takes a ridiculously long time with no ability to speed up time. It was definitely ahead of it's time though. A two player remake would be a brilliant thing to see.

"Overlooked Oldies" is a series of let's play videos of retro games that I somehow never played back in the day. Many of them will be suggestions made by subscribers, particularly on binary milestone request videos.

Intro music is from the classic "cracktro" by SCoopex. The full version can be heard and seen here:
