GBAtemp Recommends! Another World

Nice. Looks pretty sweet. I've heard of this before, but never looked into it. Think I'll check it out.

 

I haven't tried this GBA port yet (waiting on 3in1 to arrive), but I've played the PC and Genesis versions,

and I can attest that Another World is a great game in class of its own, and most definitely worth playing.

 

I never played this game, I wasn't even aware that there is a GBA version of it, well check it for sure, looks really interesting!

 

Big up to Foxy,
His work deserves it, he did the best 16/32bit era conversions for GBA.

 

Another World is my favorite game of all time, and I loved the GBA port.


I really hope Eric Chahi makes a new game soon.

 

Excellent game! I used to play this for hours on my Amiga. I remember being totally blown away by the graphics. If you havnt played this yet, then pick it up,

 

I've yet to complete this, and I've been trying since I first had it on the Amiga so many years ago. An excellent game and the inspiration to "Flashback" & "Blackthorne" (both I'll be lobbying to be future GBAtemp recommends).

I really hope that one day someone will port the sequel "Heart of the Alien" which has only ever been on the Sega CD/Mega CD console. In that game you play as the alien, Buddy.

 

One of the best games ever. Completed it lots of times on AMIGA, and it catshes me everytime I play it.

 

lol another world posted this xD now i know where the pic is from

 

This was a very popular game in the early 90's for pc but I don't remember ever finishing it. I vaguely remember the intro. It fit on one floppy so it was very easy to pirate

 

I remember this game being really hard

 

Surprised i have missed this.
The graphics must have been top-notch back then. Even now for the GBA.
Nowadays, the graphics see like a shovelware DS game
Anyways, gameplay seems fun. If you touch anything, you die. Just run and jump. Ill be sure to try it out.

 

Flashback was never released on the GBA (much to my chagrin). A sequel/remake/reboot was developed, but never released, under the title "Flashback Legends." The gameplay and story are completely different, and only a beta has ever found its way into the wild.

A couple attempts have been made to port it to the NDS: Flashback DS and REminiscenceDS, neither of which has been updated in over a year. Flashback DS is kind of buggy with the sound, while REminiscenceDS is pretty full-featured (even allowing for SegaCD speech files).

Still, I wish someone had made a GBA version.

 

It's great but pretty challenging.

 

O noes! What are this ROMz doing on my GBAtempz?

 

This game is too hard.

There's also recently been a re-release of the game for windows with improved graphics (which can be turned on and off) as well as the ability to change the game's resolution, although it looks kinda shitty in higher resolutions, since it makes all the characters look fat and makes everything look more artificial and static.

Personally, I liked the SNES version best. It has a few more screens than prior releases of the game (which is noteworthy since the whole game is short as hell), as well as some new kick-ass music which, as far as I know, didn't appear in any other versions of the game, including the recent re-release. The framerate sucked ass though.

 

damn this game is so fucking difficult.
this is real trial and error.
but it annoys if you have to redo the same sequences again and again because you don´t know what to do at a specific point.
i found a nice guide for the game:
