Ok, I can tell from the dazed look on my face whenever I look in the mirror that I am confused by this new EV:Nova. Who What When Where and Why is that?

Also, You can tell by my Karma that I need to stop spamming.

EV Nova is simply a new game built on a radically upgraded version of the engine used in Escape Velocity and EV Override. If you want to learn about Nova, the appropriate place to do it is the official (url="http://"http://www.AmbrosiaSW.com/cgi-bin/ubb/forumdisplay.cgi?action=topics&forum;=EV+Nova+web+board&number;=26&DaysPrune;=2&SUBMIT;=Go")EV Nova Web Board(/url).

Let me put it in very simple terms. The game Escape Velociy has an existing sequel, EV: Override. EV: Nova is the threequel that's coming soon (but it seems like forever from now for most of us). Okay?

Yeah, you heard me.

18 posts and a felon! Sheesh, what did you do?

Nova is the extremely cool second sequel to EV. Follow David's link to talk about it.

Thus spoke Ambrosia:
**EV Nova 1.0.0a3

In EV Nova (the threequell to Escape Velocity), we are working on a huge update to the game -- it's been rewritten so that the graphics engine is 16 bit, handles transparencies, hue tinting, thruster and laser "glowing", and a number of other really cool features. The graphics for the static scenes are all 32 bits of love, and there are QuickTime movies for many aspects of the game (don't worry, they augment the game, we aren't turning the game into an "interactive novel" or anything silly like that).

More importantly, we're giving people what they love about EV: an all new huge, expansive universe with a number of major plotlines (and scads of minor plotlines) that unfurl as you pilot your way through the universe. There actually have been book-length background stories written about the scenarios you'll encounter in the game, so depth and immersiveness in the story will be a given.

Also, there are a lot of links to other useful information in TomWoozles signature. If you find a recent post by him, there's a lot of useful info there. I'd put some of them here, but I don't feel like finding all the URLs right now. David probably has a database of them or something, but I don't keep track of them that carefully.
