Escape Velocity Cheats
Escape Velocity is a single-player role-playing space trading and combat video game series first introduced in 1996 by Ambrosia Software for the Apple Macintosh. Two other similar games based on the original, EV Override and EV Nova, followed in 1998 and 2002 respectively, the latter of which is also available on Microsoft Windows. In addition there is a trading card game available based on the storyline of the EV Nova universe.
Cheat codes, console commands, secrets:
At the title screen, option-click the Escape Velocity title.
This will display the EV-MST3K scroll. At the end, when you
see "M.C.B. 4:35 A.M." hold down option-shift-control-command-F.
You will hear the Forklift theme song, "They'll Try To Kill
'Em With A Forklift". The loaded pilot will then receive the
forklift-- a weapon of unspeakable power which the pilot can
take with him (or her) from ship to ship.
Don't use this weapon at close ranges...
The forklift is guided much like a torpedo (and is just
as slow), but it has an incredibly long range and does
tons o' damage. Seven simultaneous forklifts
(you need a LONG running start for THIS little trick...)
will disable a Confed Cruiser! Five simultaneous will KILL
a Rebel Cruiser. Anything less than a Kestrel will be killed
with only one shot. Sometimes, small fighters are kind
enough to collect together. One shot can kill them all.
This is the only weapon I know of which is capable of
killing the dread Cap'n Hector, and only if you aim it at
ANOTHER ship; time it just right so that Cap'n Hector is
passing the ship just as the forklift detonates.
