EV: Override is Ambrosia Software's follow-up game to their popular Escape Velocity. Once again positioned in space, you command a small shuttle craft. You must conquer the enemy when endangering your life on rescue missions. Escape Velocity fans will get a kick out of this game. It also has enhanced flexibility for scenario developers, new sounds and graphics, as well as a multitude of over 250 challenging levels.
What's New
This is the original Escape Velocity game, re-released compatible with Mac OS X. The new release is free to past EV and EV: Nova customers.
Amazing game, doesnt have the graphics or enhanced engine of EV:nova but the storyline plot and feel is better and an amazing experience. Played this game for hours n hours for a long time.
Basically a space ship rpg where you upgrade your ship through money gained from missions or trading commodities, and eventually your missions lead you into a storyline where you turn the tides of wars and change fates ( while getting cash and more access to government class ships )

A great game, featuring a layered plot, acceptable graphics, and one of the most open RPG interfaces you'll find out there. If you haven't played it, you really should. Plus, it's Mac-only, so MacAddicts take heart! A true must-download. Please support Ambrosia Software.

One of the best shareware games for the Mac and one of the classic alltime games for the Mac! The ability to download additional player designed scenarios/plug-ins from Ambrosia's website gives unlimited playability to the game. If you haven't tried it, you must give EVO a play and please support Ambrosia Software!
