Escape Velocity: Nova

warriorpoet2020 Would love to see it officially, 100% legally here on GOG. Even though I technically own it, I have no way of proving that, which introduces just a bit of discomfort to my OCD tilted brain which keeps me from playing it as cracked freeware. Also, it deserves to be on an officialy site where new players can find it and learn what the fuss is all about.
admin0flife This game is one of the best narratively driven games I have ever played
admin0flife FYI if you take your computer off the internet and set your date and time to around when you purchased the game you can still play the full version
afranquinho You guys know this is easily accessible thanks to the reddit sub even on modern systems, right?
Got reminded of playing this game on my dad's old LC III, found the name, and it's been now like 4hours of straight play.

xx0MANTARA0xx Knowing this gem of a game is just becoming a fading memory makes me sad. I can no longer get my old apple G3 to fire up so i am loosing access to EV, Override, and Nova. I dont want that to be forever. Hopefully someone takes this on a s a labor of love.
TheGodEmperor I built a new computer and was sad to find out that reinstalling this game was not quite the easy task.. and my code no longer works cause old and Ambrosia Software is gone... sadness. Would be great to have it on GOG to have it properly supported for years to come. I love the entire EV Series. Especially if you keep it easily moddable.
gog2002x Nice game and it's downloadable at some github site as freeware, but I'd still want to buy it from GOG if at all possible. (Though the freeware one seems to work just fine so far)
SOURCE_OF_TRUTH Go and vote for: www.gog.com/wishlist/games/cosmic_frontier_override
KaLuFa 2 days to go at the cosmic frontier override kickstarter campaign... hopefully we will reach the funding goal...
pac230 Sorry, GOG makes a mess of links: please search for 'Cosmic Frontier Kickstarter' if you are interested.
pac230 It's not Nova, but we are working on bringing back *one* of the Escape Velocity games for modern systems: www.kickstarter.com/projects/cosmicfrontier/cosmic-frontier-override
When we've progressed further, we will certainly look into distribution via GOG, among other platforms. While we are not remaking Nova at this time, we are aiming to match Nova's features, and user-made content for Nova will be compatible with the new engine.
tonykz1 Yeah, as others have said. I too own these Escape Velocity games, in fact I've bought several games from Ambrosia years ago. Since we can't play them anymore due to the license codes no longer being valid, let along Ambrosia no longer being available, surely GOG can help with this
Esseth I'd love to be able to grab these again, I did see things on Reddit that one dev is building a new engine and looking to import the games into it. But early days still
curly789er I would also love to play Escape Velocity again!
The Ambrosia Software website is down... please resurrect this game!
On archive.org I see two support phone numbers for Ambrosia Software:
800-231-1816
585-325-1910
The developer's name was Andrew Welch.
DStaal This was a game I bought the day it came out - having followed the forums on it's development for months - and would play again toady.
fresnel149 Now that Ambrosia is all but dead, GOG needs to take this over. I bought it full price the week it launched, and I'd buy it again now. Unfortunately, my original license code has expired, the auto-update tool has been broken for years, and the lostcodes email address is a black hole. Ambrosia hasn't so much as tweeted in several years now, I don't think they have more than one employee these days. But the domain keeps getting renewed, so they must have one, right?
Is $30 too much? Almost definitely, but I'd pay it again to get this huge chunk of my childhood back.
JimmyTheFist GoG, there's a massive opportunity here to save a treasured game as it is at risk of disappearing from the internet entirely. Modernize this game or keep it exactly the way it is... but save it! Also there are numerous plug-ins on the ambrosia website which should be archived and made available.
noyoto i would kill to play this again
KingBubsgonzola I've heard there are issues trying to buy it from ambrosia now. i would still pay full price for this game if it was on here for windows.
Logilo $30 is too much for a decade old game. But I still would pay it.
I'd pay $100 for the original Escape Velocity if it came with the Star Wars mod.
Ironlion45 I was google searching this title, saw a result from GoG, was momentarily excited. REALLY LET DOWN that it's only a wish. :(
Hey GOG guys, can you make this happen?
ineedbettername I probably spent hundreds of hours playing this game and exploring all the storylines, and having an easy-to-access version on GOG would make my year.
Wild_Eep What is Endless Sky missing / doing wrong that Escape Velocity Nova had / did well? The only thing I can think of is the branching / multiple storylines adding to replayability, but whatever your gripe with Endless Sky, it's open source - so just add what you feel is missing and we all benefit! It has provided the engine and a demo of what it can do, but it's open to everyone to build it into something we each find satisfying.
Byline This is the game that have given me the most joy over the years. I still know the star chart by heart. I've tried Endless Sky but it's a pale copy and lacks everything that makes EVN one of the best space sims of all time.
SupaSneak Endless Sky is an excellent modern day alternative. I think this game needs multiplayer functionality and it'll be more than pure gold... pure diamondz
Nana17 There's also a new Early Access game on steam that seems to go into the directions of EV:Nova and such, but it's still a little bit unfinished IMO, but if u want something like EV:Nova maybe support the devs or take a look at it or sth. It's called Gaia Beyond!
TheSittingDuck Has Ambrosia Software shutdown? I wonder what will happen to the distribution rights of EV Nova.
foresttaft They gotta release this game on GOG. It's a classic, and being able to play EV Override again would be amazing.
TaciturN @ vreelandteodoro...which game title is that?
Shiftfiredragon One of the first games my dad showed me on the Macintosh when I was 4 was this game right here. An insanely large and complex system was intimidating at the time, but i still loved flying around and getting into dogfights. I think i would enjoy the game much more at my current age.
toupz111 Everytime i try to buy this from ambrosia their site is broken or something, I get a scary error message that it's not security or something, please add this game!
Byline The ultimate space sim game for me. I have played all versions of Escape Velocity. I've put countless hours into them and I still know the different universe maps and story lines by heart. I would buy EVN in a heartbeat if it came to GOG regardless of the price.
Celton88 Tweet @AmbrosiaSw and let them know you want EV Nova here!
Wild_Eep While "a game on Steam" is just about as vague as possible, you are probably referring to Endless Sky, which I linked already. It's also available from the website; in source form; via Linux package managers; - not only Steam!
DestructoDisk There is a game on Steam that is almost an exact replica of Escape Velocity. Very fun.
Wild_Eep Well I paid $30 at www.ambrosiasw.com/games/evn/ a couple of years ago and don't regret it one bit. $30 for a ten-year-old game is worth it when it comes to genre-defining legends such as Dune-2, Marathon, Oni and Escape Velocity. We can't expect everything to become free like Skyroads. That being said, GOG does sell www.gog.com/game/space_pirates_and_zombies which has similar elements; the FOSS blog.naev.org merges EVE Online with Escape Velocity; and the FOSS endless-sky.github.io faithfully clones the Escape Velocity engine, provides a universe editor, and enough systems / ships / modules / factions / missions to show off its impressive capabilities. With time, its library of content will only grow.
Pandairongrip I miss this game so much. Recently tried to install the demo for a quick play through but the requirement for Quicktime is irritating. Especially as the game doesn't seem to register the fact that Qicktime is installed. Would love for there to be a Quicktime free version of this!
drewpants $30?! There's no way this is coming to GOG if they want that kind of money.
ssokolow I played EV:Override on a friend's Bondi Blue iMac back in high school and loved it. I'd really love to be able to play something in the EV series again and, given that I don't own a mac, refuse to accept online/expiry-based DRM, and refuse to play pirated games, GOG getting EV:Nova for Windows is probably the only way I'd ever be able to do that.
Deadmonkeys This game defined my childhood. The theme music still sends a chill down my spine.
xmarquez This need to happen!!! i would happily pay $10 for this game.
louieb4l From the sounds of this tread, I'm the only one with a hard copy of this game. I think I paid 10-15 dollars over 10yrs ago.. more than got my moneys worth. Only bad thing is about once a year I have to email ambrios for an updated key to register again. Digital copies without hassles like I just mentioned are worth it! Most of the games I have purchased on here I have hard copies of, and would do the same with this one, just like MOO1+2, DungeonKeeper 1+2, and a few others. Those disks wont last forever!!
HannahTrash I absolutely loved this game growing up, and would happily pay for a chance to play it again. Beating the game as Vell-Os, demanding tribute from Earth, and seeing how long I could last against the hordes of ships that they sent to kill me remains one of my favorite early gaming experiences.
SaucyClamjuice I gotta say, this game (and to a slightly greater degree its predecessors) literally DEFINES this genre for me. This series is an inspiration to many KS games, and many games in this genre that have come out since have not even measured up.
DavidDragoon Fond memories of this game and the first two. Great storylines, be a pirate or a merchant and explore space. EVN should be on GOG!
Imperor Would love to see this game on GOG. Oh, the many many hours I spent playing this game are beyond counting.
cgheezey i would LOVE to see this game on gog
jameswolfe Lets get this game on GOG!!!
Ebalosus I agree that even although I have issues regarding coherence in the setting and narrative, I think that EVN (and the other EVs) are an important milestone in the Space Trading and Combat genre
superstande Hopin' issa good game and gog's gonna start selling it 9.99$ soon :) I keep going back to the official site, looking youtube demos, staring at the price, then "10$ sure, but no, it can't be that good." :)
