Game summary
Space Empires: Starfury is a new installment in the long-lasting Space Empires series. No more tiny 2D graphics this time - Starfury features a first-person perspective from a lone ship and a all-new real-time 3D rendering engine. As captain of your battle cruiser, you'll travel through solar systems via warp points, explore the galaxy, engage in furious space combat, and join in large fleet operations. Starfury allows you to completely customize your starship and has a complex ship combat model. Multiple campaigns with a vast array of missions will challenge you to hold back the forces that threaten your race, and to make a little money on the side!
As always, the game is completely open: you can alter the game's structure and create custom mods and skins.
First released: Sep 2003
Play Space Empires: Starfury on Mac with Parallels (virtualized)
The easiest way to play Space Empires: Starfury on a Mac is through Parallels, which allows you to virtualize a Windows machine on Macs. The setup is very easy and it works for Apple Silicon Macs as well as for older Intel-based Macs.
Parallels supports the latest version of DirectX and OpenGL, allowing you to play the latest PC games on any Mac. The latest version of DirectX is up to 20% faster.
Our favorite feature of Parallels Desktop is that when you turn off your virtual machine, all the unused disk space gets returned to your main OS, thus minimizing resource waste (which used to be a problem with virtualization).
Space Empires: Starfury installation steps for Mac
Step 1

Step 3

Step 4
