===Follow-ups=== Atari did not pay royalties to its developers, including Neubauer. He left the company but later did contract work for it.{{sfn|Barton|Loguidice|2009|p=2}} Atari later released ''[[Star Raiders II]]'' for several home computer systems.{{sfn|Bevan|2010|p=66}} Bevan wrote in ''[[Retro Gamer]]'' that fans of ''Star Raiders'' sometimes considered Neubauer's 1986 Atari 2600 game ''[[Solaris (video game)|Solaris]]'' to be the "true successor" to the original game.{{sfn|Bevan|2010|p=65}} Neubauer explained that ''Solaris'' was not a sequel, and that he preferred Star Raiders for its gameplay, cockpit view, and explosion graphics.{{sfn|Bevan|2010|p=65}} In 1994, Atari promoted a game called ''Star Raiders 2000'' for the [[Atari Jaguar]] that was later retitled ''[[Space War 2000]]''. The game was later cancelled.{{sfn|Tramiel}}{{sfn|Toad Computers Catalogue|p=5|ref=TCC}}{{sfn|Le Grand|Engel|Wukovitz|Harker|1998|p=10}} Years later, [[Incinerator Studios]] developed a new version of ''[[Star Raiders (2011 video game)|Star Raiders]]'', which was released in 2011.{{sfn|Thorsen|2010}}{{sfn|Petit|2011}} On the game's release, it received "generally unfavorable reviews" according to [[Metacritic]].{{sfn|Metacritic|ref=MC}} Carolyn Petit of GameSpot compared the new version of game to the original, stating the original game is complex and ambitious with a sense of humor while the new version "possesses none of the ambition or fun of its namesake".{{sfn|Petit|2011}}
