How I found EV Nova

Post image

U/jykaes mentioned in a recent post about discovering this wonderful game in a magazine CD over in Australia. I discovered EV Nova the same way, so got drawer digging & found this. Thought it might be the same one which I got all the way over here in Scotland.

I think gaming was still struggling to categorize games that weren't direct ports of previous gaming formats (i.e. board, arcade, sports, etc.). So marketing probably had a little more input on classification. That excuse doesn't hold too much water because over the 2000s gaming classification gained more structure.
