Escape Velocity 3 is due to come out according to Ambrosia Software. The game will be a revamp of the previous Escape Velocity. This is what Ambrosia says: "In EV3 (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)." EVO and the original EV were groundbreaking games that had fantastic gameplay and very interesting stories. In the games you piloted a ship and got to make or break yourself however you wanted. It let you take the game into any direction you wanted. I expect this 3quel to be a very strong release. Maybe Ambrosia's first major one that could become a big hit. |
