Galactic Insanity!

Yes, Flying Mushrooms...

Just about every major symbolic entity from Nintendo makes an appearance in this plug-in for the classic gem Escape Velocity. Will you pilot a Triforce or a Tetrad? How about a Metroid, or an Arwing? A galaxy of ludicrous wonders awaits.

To play, you'll need to obtain a copy of Escape Velocity, which you can download from sites such as Macintosh Repository or Macintosh Garden. Please note the compatibility requirements: Mac OS 7.0 - 9.2.

If you want to play Galactic Insanity! on a modern system (Mac OS X or Windows), you'll need to get your hands on Escape Velocity Nova, the third game in the series. You'll then need to: 

Mac OS X users can download EV Nova here and EV Classic here. Windows users can download a 'ready-to-go' port here (the first link - original 1996).

For Windows users, Galactic Insanity!'s plug-in files will need to be converted to the .REZ format required by the Windows version of EV Nova. Documentation will be available soon.
