Hi again, all. Some concept art has been produced for the game now, to show an idea of what an updated version of the original graphics could look like:

Was it on a video game machine in town at one of those Arcade places where we played as children in over 16 and up; us children who put real silver made quarters into it and paid to stand in front of that tall box, with a little monitor, and play that video game?
No, this game was PC-only. For a long time it was specifically Macintosh-only, but the later version was also Windows-compatible.

Back in the 90’s, Ambrosia Software released a series of space RPG / trading / combat games, called Escape Velocity. The creator of the second game, EV Override, is now running a Kickstarter campaign to remake/remaster the game for modern platforms, starting with Mac OS X, Windows, and Linux.
Aside from the base game, the remake of Override will be compatible with existing fan-made mods (which there are already decades of, including some fan scenarios that are full-blown games in and of themselves), and it's also designed to be easily and extensively moddable.
I figured folks here may be interested in checking it out and/or supporting it. Here’s a link to the Kickstarter: https://www.kickstarter.com/projects/cosmicfrontier/cosmic-frontier-override/

Oh, I remember Microsoft Flight Simulator! I played it when I was very young. I enjoyed it, but I didn't understand anything about aerodynamics and all the planes I tried to create were unflyable.
