Honestly but far the best amiga game. It just oozes class

[@garyhay6771]

My sharooba

[@sweetato]

that's not a game. it's a masterpiece.

[@ArnTerry]

indeed

[@ruslansmirnov9006]

several games have DIRECT references to this game, to mention 'Black the Fall' and 'Little Nightmares', perhaps showing some respect in such a way

[@MetalNick]

Pssshhh

[@garyhay6771]

Yes

[@garyhay6771]

It builds such suspension right from the start

[@McNibbler]

This game's art direction aged weirdly well, it still looks like a modern indie title

[@xzxxx-km4vy]

Thats because indies copy these old games like the hipsters they try to be

wtf

[@PREFISSO089]

It's a Masterpiece

[@kempo79]

The game was - still is - amazing. And even after so many years it STILL looks great!

[@shiroumxm2052]

no it does not look great come on

[@wakingfromslumber9555]

It has a unique look and style. I still think it is a very good looking game till this day.

Parents are young, my brother and I get up in the middle of the night, put a blanket around the door so no light will seep thru the door. We would play it until I fall sleep watching my brother play. Childhood is somerhing else. Even when I was a child, I was aware of this. Good times, this calms me down.

[@fuzzywzhe]

I'm glad you had a good childhood.

[@mikebrown5819]

Masterclass in art. How to create such an atmosphere in 8 shades of blue, grey and a splash of red

[@trakaipilies396]

Bob Ross would have been proud of him. Just would have asked for some tiny little trees.

[@Wurschthaut270384]

It's truly amazing!

[@milkysaysmoo3618]

I must have watched the first 5 minutes of this game 20 times - all I had was the PC demo at the time and it looked incredible but I never found out what happened next ... until now!

[@chiprock804]

same, I Had this game on PC too.... never got beyond the arena scene because the game froze all the time.

[@Epicname333]

Same!

[@dzonikg]

Played on my Amiga more then 30 years ago and still remember this game

[@nybiggs]

One of the favorite games of my childhood. The puzzles and action-packed scenes were great. Even the story was well told, all without saying a word.

[@MrLobba]

Still one of the best intros in a game ever (and cool looking!)

[@RK1FX]

A movie about this game would be bad ass

[@yassinemarcomarroccu3556]

So glad I found it back. My chidlhood, in my friend Omar's room, playing on his Amiga. We were amazed by Another World, Im sure its part of the reasons why my life has been so fullfilled by visions, other worlds, other dimensions, shamanism, second states etc etc etc. The great escape.

[@Retroconsole]

Who stayed til the end? Death sequences are awesome :)

[@pedro888mendes]

I remember finishing it... endless sleepless nights

[@maxbrandt6]

Really cool game for it's time, I'm surprised someone hasn't made a movie based on it yet.

[@m0rvidusm0rvidus18]

The hero is a white male. He would have to be replaced by a Diversity. Also the alien population lacks diversity also. Just seems all wrong for a modern movie.

[@paul7t5]

This was/is the absolute PINNACLE of Amiga gaming.

[@petar.banovac]

The era when one man could design and program a game, do all the visuals and still make a rocking game....

[@BraytonDH]

stardew valley, LISA, return of the obra dinn, undertale, axiom verge, papers please, spelunky, thomas was alone all released after 2010

[@Domarius64]

Yeah it's actually more possible to do that nowadays than it was back then. Free game engines mean you don't have to write your own in assembly like Eric had to XD

[@lorenzodigaetano3591]

You forgot a death sequence that almost nobody knew about! After the cage falls and your friend leaves, try standing still for several minutes! There is a surprise that has been there for 30 years!

[@sethzwicker3631]

What is/was it?

[@ArttuTheCat]

I remember playing this classic game on the Amiga 500 when i was 8 or 9 years old. It's still awesome!

[@erdal_bora]

Many yeears ago.. I remember getting stuck in the underground tunnels. Then some other day I played again and this time passed the tunnels. I got inspired and finished the whole game and called my friend to tell him about it :) The feeling of playing this game is magical in my memory. 💖💖💖

[@0374studio]

As for me, the *best sound* version is here, on Amiga - so crispy and laconic. 💪🔥 The icon of sifi games. Most powerful (in game) gun ever, btw.

[@Okazu84]

I only recently noticed that this version (just like the Atari St one that I noticed years ago) lacks a whole sequence starting @19:00. On the PC/Snes/Genesis versions, your alien friend actually doesn't drop you in front of the tank but rather in a different, upper part of the building and from there you have a pretty decent and intense sub-chapter to complete before you finally get to the tank.

[@drkamilz]

I still remember (probably same year it came out) seeing the same intro those with also showing part of 1st level on a window of a computer shop, and I had still C64 back than. Fluency of animation of main character so amazed me, it was nothing like that I've seen before. As a long time computer user and a gamer, similar experience I had like this are extremely rare. Well done Chahi.

[@kaidzaack2520]

It is a playable graphic novel. Excellent!

[@deadnerves]

one of my favorite games, music is great too

[@Trikipum]

Yeah, the music is awesome....

[@2PeteShakur]

"My inspiration for the art style came partly from the technical choice to use polygons for the graphics and also from my love of fantasy illustrators such as Michael Whelan and Richard Corben. The Amiga was a revolution for me; its power and versatility allowed me to create Another World in a very fluid, improvisational way. I would often randomly sketch and explore different combinations of pixels to find the right feeling for a face or a shape. Deluxe Paint allowed me to do this very quickly. In fact, the software was so ahead of its time we were still using it on Heart of Darkness in 1997." -- Eric Chahi, designer, programmer and graphic artist (Another World/Out of this World, Amiga)

[@davidtabone93]

Seeing this intro for the first time on my cousin's Amiga, blew me away. One of my favorite gaming memories.

[@MrTommyGeek]

One of the greatest intros ever

[@lazypat5497]

I must agree with Retrogaming. This game has been and always will be my favorite game. I think it was released onto one of the consoles at one time.

[@marttull5979]

This and flashback .

[@stevejjd]

SOOO COOL! As a Kid, I never got very far at all in this game.

[@shaun2908]

I’d love to see a movie made based on this game

Imagine this as a movie nowadays😮 this game was the toughest i ever played on the amiga 500 when i was 8years old

[@Domarius64]

Holy crap, at 19:02 it skips a whole massive section in the city that's in the DOS version. Amiga version got jipped! I guess he was able to add it for the DOS release after he finished the Amiga one.

[@stephanemignot100]

Sound and music suck in the DOS version, in DOSBox at least

[@Domarius64]

@@stephanemignot100 it's all digital sound, it's identical

[@stephanemignot100]

@@Domarius64 Not really, you have to use SoundBlaster 1 or the sound is full left or full right, don't remember, so sb1(mono) is the way. And the intro is a crackling fest, in DOSBox again, to be clear. I should mess with other options, no MT-32 support so I don't really care anyway, Amiga it is

[@xFlow777]

Daaaaamn, cutscenes and everything

[@Cschuster05]

Talk about being back memories. I completed this in the end and the finishing scene is incredible

[@Nostrum84]

Hmmm... experiment gone wrong, opens portal to another dimension, lands on alien planet. HALF LIFE? That cave ceiling monster with the tentacles also occurs in HL

[@juhaolkkonen8390]

I was a kid when this game came to amiga -- never finished it and it was a great pleasure now to watch it finally! Thanks! Cheers from Finland.

[@distantworlds9104]

Sooo much of an obvious influence on Ico. The fact that a game even comparable to that one was released in the same year as Super Mario World and Sonic 1 is just nuts.

[@sakis-c9x]

This could be the greatest game ever...the graphics aren't pixels..its all polygons ...a true masterpiece.

meraviglioso, un gioco che ti faceva "vivere" veramente un'altra dimensione. Che nostalgia

That game felt like a flash game

[@GeorgeTsiros]

oh, man that's a... flashback

[@RicardoPestana]

I remember when i watched this game at my friends house. He had a IBM PS2. I was really amazed!

[@fittushattana]

Im almost certain that the Oddworld game series was inspired by this!

[@mattx5499]

Probably the first cinematic platformer/adventure game was Karateka, then Prince of Persia and then Another World. The difference is that Another World had more sophisticated animations and cutscenes never seen before. And it was made in the year when most people still had 8-bit computers and consoles unable to render any sophisticated animation.

[@chorister20002000]

I would watch my cousin last century play this game. It was pretty cool. Watching it now and thinking I am back in the 1990’s on a Saturday evening.

[@LeeJPryer]

[@Retro_and_Future]

incredible game for the Amiga, never reached far but when i looked this video i was so impressed what the game was about.

[@patriciakoot1709]

I tried it on the A500 mini, I had to replay the first seconds of the game for about 30 times. I couldn’t get past those snails while I was jumping. My timing was off. Now I see that I have to stamp on it. Dammmm.

[@mikariekki5708]

I also had no idea you could just kick the slugs... just played through it on a PS5 at normal. Died a bunch of times on the slugs when trying to jump over them and finally succeeded. The controls are so sluggish tbh, pun intended. Puzzle solving needs a definitive mindset and a bit of knowledge how these games generally work.

[@GerinoMorn]

I remember playing it around 1993 or so, being a pre-schooler. I had NO IDEA how to play this game - I think I managed to get as far as the big beast runaway in the beginning xD

[@reesofraft4166]

and all that without any kind of hud overlay or any distracting thing. loved that game, though it took ages to uncover some things. love(d) it. a lot.

I never knew the name of this game, only remembered the sounds made by the characters.. Didn't worked well, I bought it (diskettes) in argentina... I saw it in a MOMA Ted talk about video games as art... I can't believe this.. The internet is awesome

[@garyposnett7788]

AMAZING! OH THE MEMORIES! after prince of persia! So groundbreaking at the time, an class soundtrack! born 74 these games were the soundtrack to my childhood !!! ONE LOVE!!!

[@kevindube7096]

😂 The slapfight at 21:45 was hilarious. Honorable mentions included endless lasers & rolling around through tight spaces

[@Fenris77]

The ending felt a bit weird as if the game was only an experiment. Good and advanced for its age though. Despite what today's youngsters say.

how could this game with those kinds of visuals have been created in 1991 like why didnt diffrent people who made games also use such good graphics for that time ?

I have played this game on NOKIA，my memories！

[@martinefrensoquigomez7835]

So it was "Matsuba" all along.

[@stevenaguilera9202]

Since the developer was French, I think he said "moi tu vas" which is like " me you go".

[@Dethmeister]

Interesting. What is happening when they drive the tank into the coliseum? Are you controlling what buttons he's pushing?

[@AL82RetrogamingLongplays]

Yes, you get to control the buttons - the only one you need to press is the top-left green (which activates the ejector). The rest fire various laser cannons and missiles into the arena - it's a rare moment of humour as you're the one with all the power at that moment.

[@marcovarius]

I wonder why they removed that random beetle from the first level in later versions of the game.

[@DarkMoe]

Removed the whole animation to make room for the new levels on the future ports

[@pbyguy7059]

You can JUST SQUISH THE SLUGS!?!?!?!?

[@BreathingAir]

This game was 10 years ahead of it's time. I barely had a PC good enough to run it and had to use cheat codes to skip levels as I wasn't good enough.

[@rogerdavidson6236]

Love this game and would love to finally complete it in this lifetime, but I just cannot get past the two big bastards that get you in the pincer movement at 15:24.....looks easy in the video, but it always takes too long for me to set up the forcefields and power up the gun for the big shot and I get zapped in mid-action..... :(
