Does the sourceforge project you linked work well enough or is it worth tracking down the original game? !+@ are only $6 on GOG as well, and I don't mind paying - it looks like the project is more of a fan update, but I'd rather play an original game without bugs.

Which one should I try ? :)

UQM is the real deal, not some halfass fan project.

UQM actually has fewer bugs than the original game and includes the 3D0 voice pack, which I think most of we who played it in the day never experienced. It's a superior product so you'd be paying more for less. You also have the option of plugging in an updated soundtrack from "The Precursors". Some of their tracks are actually really good but you have to plug together the "good guys" music yourself since, for some reason, they have never released an official pack for that (and I doubt they will, given the time that's passed, now). This is easily done, however. There's also a bunch of other remixes available at the Pages of Now and Forever.
