    • "Mugabi and Destiny" and "Mugabi and Destiny... for her" are RELEASED!


      After two years of effort, my plug-ins "Mugabi and Destiny" and the version for female EV players, "Mugabi and Destiny... for her," are finally released.

      They are for experienced EV players, and begin where the Alien storylines in EV leave off:


      Following your fabulous success against the Alien Cruiser menace, you search for new adventure, and answers to the mysteries of your past. You will see things you have never seen, and do things you did not think possible. Mutiny, romance, death, sacrifice, suicide, irony, mystery, and destiny await you in an epic whirlwind adventure.
      There are changes to virtually every aspect of Escape Velocity, but "Mugabi and Destiny" and "Mugabi and Destiny... for her" are designed to move along quickly and concisely. They also feature music, and some of the most impressive space objects and landing pictures ever to appear in EV.
      Expect the unexpected.
      The answer is out there, Captain.


      Visit the "Mugabi... " Websites to preview the features, view the credits and links, use the support page, and DOWNLOAD the plug-ins:

      and

      Ambrosia Software has the plug-ins, and they will soon also be available from the Add-ons for EV.

      Thank-you, good luck, and let me know what you think.

    • I am still searching for the anonymous creator of the Confederate BaseShip which makes a brief appearance in my plug-ins. If anyone knows, I would like to provide proper credit on the Mugabi... Website.

      Hey, really nice gameplay!
      I just wanted to thank you for this plug-in. I didn't play EV for a long time and got interested again after reading the replies to your announcement.

      It's a nice story and I couldn't stop playing until I finished it at about 3 o'clock (am!). The huge spobs slowed down my comp a bit but it's worth the trouble, it looks beautiful. Any chance for a sequel? 🙂

      I just missed one detail: challenge
      While it's fun to "play the story" the battles are too easy. Maybe the beams are a little bit too powerful. After all, this is "for experienced players".

      Thanks again,

      - Marko

    • Incidentally, Mugabi and Destiny is now available on the Starlight Hotline server for your downloading pleasure. I believe it is only the male version though; ask EVula for more information.

      Do not sell yourself short as an excellent pilot. 🙂
      Thank-you for the valuable feedback. By "experienced" I wanted to make sure that the gameplayers will have at least completed the original alien missions in EV, and so the story would have background. This might sound like a mute point, but you never know....
      I wanted to create missions/battles that were difficult and unique but not long/arduous. The enemy is outfitted with the most powerful weapon in the plug-in.
      I also wanted to make it possible for a wide range of skill levels/ages to be able to play the plug.
      Most of all, I wanted the storyline to be the focus, especially for those players that grow tired of fighting for hours apon hours.
      Thanks again for the f/b.

    • I have a question: When I go to the Fueling station with Alia, and accept the messages, It blocks my way back to Spica, and I can't seem to find the next system to jump to. Would someone help me please?

      Next time you want to post a question please don't drag up a two year old thread. Just create a new one!
