I remember drooling over the articles on magazines saying this was the most thoroughly animated 2D platformer ever made (back then). 25 frames of animation for every action.

A playthrough without commentary that includes cinematics, is in English, and is done by someone rather skilled with the game. Finally! Looking all over and found this video. It's hard for many people to track down copies of the game so I'm going to show them this video if they want to know about it but can't play it for themselves. Nice.

@pixelatedjaggie62707 жыл бұрын
They are seemingly similar because of the perspective and 3D backgrounds, and the cutscenes would have you believe everything is 3d, But the sprites are all 2d hand drawn animation and there's not a lot of people with the skills to do the animation in here justice (I say this as someone who does this for a living and has long admired both this and OW:AO). We are far more likely to get a shitty remake like the Earthwormjim ones, than something like the excellent Wonderboy remake. A proper remake of this would take the perfect team to make it, not just any team cobbled together.

This game's designers were very skilled in 3D animation, it was at impressive level at the time of development. I believe they were hired to work on Toy Story, which is why the game was delayed. These CG animations were actually a major part of the game's appeal. At the time it would have been incomparably expensive and nearly impossible to visualize the exact same images as a live action movie. I believe making it justice is only possible now. Spielberg should make this into a 3D movie!

For those wondering: The game was developed by Amazing Studio who only developed one game; this one. The company consisted of some of the former Delphine employees, known for excellent games like Flashback and Another World. They used rotoscoping, a technique to create lifelike animations with exquisite attention to detail - first pioneered by Prince of Persia back in 1989.
