I recently found the fan emulators of the Escape Velocity games, gave me such a nostalgia [redacted]
Can't beat the feeling of playing those old gems you discovered by accident back in the day. Gaming sure has changed- now I feel old.

Wow, I haven't played EV in ages! It's one of the reasons I actually still have an old Mac (that I haven't fired up in years, it's literally running OS9). Maybe I'll have to get it fired up and load that gem up... It's so old it's on a Zip disk! 😂

A port of the original EV? I played Nova & Override and never thought they were as good as the original. Discovered it completely by accident too! Someone had it running on a machine in the CS lab at Indiana University late one night.

The original! I'll send you the link. I thought Nova was a massive improvement over the original. Never played into override on end- just wasn't the same.
