i dunno if it exists, but...

If anyone has ever played escape velocity on the Mac, maybe they can point me to a similar, if not identical, game for the PPC.

i found a port of space trader, but it's not specifically what i'm looking for. i'd like a more open-ended game with real-time ship-to-ship combat. does this exist anywhere?

thanks!

Not sure if it's what you're looking for, but have you tried Strange Adventures in Infinite Space?

Also, look at Anthelion.

Elite perhaps? It exists for Pocket PC but the copyright holder is not allowing it to be released.

greytrev

*Sigh* Elite is in a great state - one developer is like "OMFG NO RELEASE OF ELITE!" and the other hosts versions for many platforms on his website :)

I remember trying to find Elite for the PalmOS. 'Twas a fun search, ending after several weeks at a russian warez site ...

You can still play Elite on your PPC, though. Pick a PPC DOS emu of your choice (PocketDOS, pDOSBox, et. al.), then go to http://www.iancgbell.clara.net/elite/ - the website of the friendly developer - and download Elite from there. Convoluted, but it works!

Now, if only the PPC native version would be released ...

The PPC vesion of Elite is fantastic - I guess I'm one of the lucky few who still have a copy. It's essentially identical to the 16-bit versions with controls nicely refined for PDA use.

Mark.

I hate you, you lucky bastard ;)

You can sign up to beta test Pokcet PC Elite at www.eliteppc.com but the beta version doesn't let you save :(

greytrev

Anyone have random program crash problems with SAIS?
