As soon as I read X-Wing, I was in. I think you and I are in the same demographic.
I played a few minutes, I'll come back and do more later.
I found the controls and navigation a bit difficult to get used to. Especially finding the other ships. The speed up/down was too slow. Perhaps implements of 10 instead of just 1. I was playing in browser with mouse and keyboard.
I really liked the crisp graphics.
Like I said, I'll come back and try more later.
Incidentally, I was also inspired by X-Wing for my current game but it's a 2D shooter.
