hey thanks for posting this game. was fun to play it again after so many years.
the description is a little misleading, v1.0, v1.1, and v2.0 are all episode one. v1&v1.1 are buggy, so don't bother with them. episode 2 doesn't seem to be legally available.
edit - ep2 here:
[No posting links to illegal downloads]

Decent game. I liked the soundtrack.
Unfortunately the gameplay was the same thing over and over again.

I've only played a bit into the shareware episode and have got the same impression.

I've played through the shareware version and, yes, the mission objectives aren't terribly exciting. The fun part is fighting, once you've upgraded your ship. I had fun flying around and killing everybody.

The hyperspace jumps are way too long.
WARNING: PLOT SPOILERS AHEAD!
Is it a bug or is the unregistered shareware version tweaked to end like this? After acquiring the hyperdrive and finishing few missions, I am to stop a ship from entering a vortex (wormhole). The natural flow of the story would be to follow it, so I agree with him and then... my ship explodes? If it's a wrong answer, what's the correct one? After all, I don't have enough fuel to get back, right?
