Another World - Ultimate Speedrun  

What Doth Life the first couple hahaha exactly me too this game was insane hard as a kid

Truth, as a kid it was insane hard :D

Lmao yup, that's why I'm watching it now

Bad Lip Reading "It's not a moon"?

Still true. Lez is life

Thats Another World for ya.

Would like to see your best time on the hard version on the remaster

@@paullasky6865 never played this game since i was 8 years old so it's gonna be hard :)

Thanks a lot sir ! It took me months and months of training and tears to get such a result so don't be so hard with yourself ^^ I'm glad to see that there are people who come back to this masterpiece time to time !

I'd love to see it!

I already remade orchestral versions from both the intro and the ending.

@@GamingNostalgiaRemastered Is it on youtube ?

@@NintendoHardGamer Yes they are on my channel

@@GamingNostalgiaRemastered Waw, both are really amazing, well done ! The snes versions really are my favorites. The intro has a little something very frightening, and the ending theme has tragic vibes that the original version doens't have. It really add a whole new dimesion when I saw it for the first time as a kid. Thank you for your work !

Well thank you ^^ I still play the game from time to time and this trick remains one of the hardest to me (with the one at 6:05). The timing has to be perfect: if you move too late the floor bomb'll kill you, but if you move too soon it'll cancel your shield. Even in the outdated version of the run, this guard has always been a pain in the *ss x)

Amazing speedrun! I had no idea.

Hi there ! If you want some informations you can find notes that I wrote in the SDA to complete the submission of this run. Maybe it'll help ^^ And if it does not, I'll be happy to give a hand personally ! Thanks for your comment, I really apreciate :)

NintendoHardGamer Aw man, that's too nice of you dude qq Thanks so much! Do you have any links to your notes? Also, if I have any questions I'd like to ask you personally, would here be best? Or would you prefer another way of contact?

Lester Knight Chaykin speeddemosarchive.com/AnotherWorld.html Here. I think it's best to also read notes of the segmented speedrun, they kinda complement each other. As for questions, you can ask here. You can use RU-vid private mails too and if you can also ask my Skype adress if you think it'll be easier using it !

NintendoHardGamer I sent you a private message on youtube asking some questions. I've been reading your notes a lot and there's still some things I want to ask. I've been making good progress so far though!

+Matt Aslin Well thank you so much ^^ I believe that is how the SDA community wants speedrunners to think. Of course it's a skill prestation and stuff, but most of all it's a share of passion about one game, or about video games in general. So there's no point of being selfish and keeping tricks for myself. I guess I'll be kind of sad if someone beats my time one day (especially on this game where I put more efforts than anything else in my entire life) but I'll still be impressed and happy to think that I'm a part of it. As for AGQD, it'll be an honor to be a part of it but it'll ask me to go to another country for a week. My work and my budget don't really allow me to do such a thing. But maybe, one day :)

I did it too

I tried to translate the message with Google, the result wasn't great but I think I got the essence of it so... I'm glad you liked it ^^ It took me one hell of a time to do the whole thing. Probably the only success in my entire life =p

Oh, it's really nice of you to translate it , thanks ^^

Guillermo Paniagua Valdebenito Thank you mate, I really apreciate it ^^ Your method sounds like the one I used at first ( that you can see in my good old 10:12 record). I am glad that a really nice guy, Archanfel, worked hard with me to find new shortcuts and keep me motivated to make a new record after the first I made. I'm pretty sure he is the clever-one who found this new trick and a lot of others. Even after doing it a thounsad times it actually remains pretty difficult to perform it properly (that and the one at 6:05). Definitely the only great thing I made in my entire life x)

+traida111 It took ages before I understand how to pass the next part where you have to dig the ground with bombs. When I found the solution it only was by chance, I didn't know what to do anymore and I just waited in front of the alien, letting him launch some bombs. The funny thing is sometimes I noticed that the ground was changing a little, but I never made the connection with the bombs until the I found the ground completely open. Good memories !

+NintendoHardGamer hehe nice, I dont remember getting stuck on that bit, I think I remember those bombs as being a new weapon so I was confused, I see it going down the stairs so I guess I worked it out. I think the ending on this game puts you on the edge of the seat, had a real connection to that alien freind, got quite emotional when he helped, especially when he is getting beaten up at the end. I also love the intro at the start, what a well made game and graphics (for that era), this game was fantastic to play back then, love it.

It's totally random :p i dont duck, it s just the effect of Lester's fall. I just played until the game let me pass x/

I actually met the guy during a french convention. He was absolutely adorable, calm and very humble. It was a real pleasure to talk a little with him. I also have the 20th anniversary eddition with his signature ! Good memories x)

TrioHorrorProduction Thank you so much ! If you feel insulted by my "skill", I can record myself playing FPS-games. It'll show you that being good in games is a really relative thing x) Oh, and you're the subscriber n°100, so... Yay ! =p

Hahaha no, you're fine. I just can't believe something like this was possible seeing that Another World is a game even the creator dies in when demonstrating it. It's beast!

TrioHorrorProduction Thanks u_u Because Hoooooly hell I suck with FPS... Like seriously when I play L4D with friends they know that the simple fact that I'm playing makes the game a lot harder. I actually met Mr. Chahi two years ago in a convention ^^ He is a really humble man, he thanked me for my speedrun. I was like "Uh... Wait what ? No no, I thank you ! Your game changed my life ! Don't thank me è_é" It was kinda embarassing... But anyway, a great guy and a simple person ! Some french video game developers should take the exemple.

First of all: You're welcome. Though I love more the old school shooters myself such as Quake, FPS is just too overdone this generation. That's a great you got to meet Eric Chahi. That would be a great honor and it's great to hear he respected your Speedrun like many others. As for the game and Eric himself, you can't help to respect that after 20+ Years it still has praise. Why? Well because rather game developers are too nervous to copy or wasn't taken to heart. Though that there are many that are inspired (like you me, and Kojima) the style of game shows you can show enough through gameplay, attention grabbing and everything else. That something simple like this can take merely twenty minutes if done right or even hours if it's your first time playing (we have all been there). Though I wish they would have transferred Lester's Journal in later versions, it's not hindered by its absence still showing that even without words, and through cinematic. He too helped with pushing off an RPG I have been developing for six years by myself (which I hope to release a Beta Demo in a few days to a week) or that I even hope to create a Spiritual Successor to Another World someday. The style Eric has done isn't well known nor has it been as imitated, Which is an interesting approach. Eric proves that even after 20 years he's still inspiring, taking us to school and teaching us how to make a game that addicting, simple and with as much story within a short amount of time. He was the main reason why we have games such as Prince of Persia and Metal Gear Solid (though not Metal Gear). I bet you anything he wasn't expecting such a feedback. Even to this day.. Wow what a mouthful haha. I didn't mean to keep you =P ~Alyssa

TrioHorrorProduction Wow, what an answer ! ^^ I'm nervous now ! I think Mr. Chahi is still surprised by the feedback even today, and it's a really cool thing. So many people would fall into vanity to his own place. But him ? I'm pretty sure he is just grateful to people who like his games. I agree with your opinion, Another World just created a way to tell a story in a videogame not only by cutscenes but also by gameplay itself. Most of the things you can understand or imagine in this world is just by reading what you see in the screen during the gameplay. The universe, but also the complicity with the friend, the way to solve a situation, the action's intensity... There's nothing similar, at least I don't think anyone succeed to do such a thing so naturally, without being blatant or vulgar . This really is kind of induced narration, and I think it's a mistake to say that AW brought a cinematographic dimension in video games. The game just found his own way to tell a story, helping itself with what makes a video game a video game, but there aren't so many similarities with Film codes except those 3 cutscenes. That's how I see it =p So you're creating a game huh ? I'll be glad to play it when it'll be ready ^^ I'm kinda curious ! Thanks for the long thought ! It was really interesting !

If you like the ending theme... I've just uploaded a brand new orchestral remake of "Out of this World". Come check it out. I think you'll enjoy it.

@@GamingNostalgiaRemastered Thanks. I'll check it out.

Thank you sir ! I worked very hard on it and the result is very clean even if I still see minor errors here and there =p This version (15th anniversary) doesn't have difficulty, just a "normal" and "fast" speed. This speedrun is in normal, the other mode being kinda awkward and unatural. Actually, the difficulty in your version (20th anniversary) also changes the general speed of the game but the are also several other minor changes. If I remember correctly, one of them is the "accuracy" of random lasers, increasing the the possibility of you to die in some spots (like in prison when you run pass the guard). It forces to have some micro-changes when you run the game x/ That's not the reason why I didn't use the 20th Anniversary version though. I just didn't have it x) For the last ennemy of the game, actually I could activate the "trap" a little bit earlier (when he makes his second step on the floor if I remember correctly). But considering how lucky I was with several RNG in the game and how clean my run was so far, I didn't want to mess up right at the end ._. Thank you for your comment ^^

Wich part of the game was ? And wich plateform ? PC ? I didn't even know that such a thing existed :)

@@NintendoHardGamer it was on PC on my old cousins computer ages ago. The demo would allow me to get chased by the first beast, hop the worms and then wave and get shot by the locals. I'd replay that chase scene in the pc demo at least 50 times because I didn't have any other games to play lol.

@@suckstobeyou2623 Yep! I played the same demo! It also had others on it one of them being Lord of The Rings Vol. 1 which I replayed a lot too.

It has

Heart of the Alien on Sega-CD. Play as the Alien after he returns with Lester.

They both got a sequel. Fade to Black (Flashback sequel) was an interesting beast (basically an early 3d proto-Tomb Raider with more adventure game elements) but its interface was an absolutely horribly designed abomination wherein there were separate controls for rolling your eyeballs or wiggling your ears. I recommend watching a playthrough on youtube, it really hasn't aged well. Heart of the Alien (Another World 2) only came out on a niche console and never got ported to anything else as far as I know. Oh, and MASSIVE SPOILER, Lester dies in it, turning a whole lot of the games into a shaggy dog story.

I think he just wanted to beat the shit out of him to punish him, for fucking everything up.

Stuck with the blowing floor thing huh ? It took me so long to understand how to finish this level when I was younger. I did not even find the solution on purpose, I was just messing around with the guard until I find out a hole in the ground. Anyway, Glad I helped =p

Yeah it think it was the part when you have to like let this guard blow up the floor and then it was like that part when you've gotta drop down to that place with all the guards plus the animals (they're fighting) 'cause I kept dying there. I didn't exactly think of just keep running as fast as I could to the right until I saw it on YT xD

In fact it really depends of your timing when you start running/jumping and I'm pretty sure slimes sometimes have a different position pattern. In any case, if your first move is a success you'll reach the black beast without doing anything. After that, depending of slimes location, you may need to re-synchronize your move. From experience, it always happens at 0:23 but sometimes you don't need to do it at 0:34

Tu as recodé le jeu ? :O

@@NintendoHardGamer oui c'est moi qui suis a l'origine du code en C de la version GBA et qui a ensuite servit pour la version PC anniversaire ;)

@@cyrilcogordan9208 Oh incroyable, c'est un réel honneur de te parler ! A quel point est-ce que cela a été compliqué ? Je suis très curieux de tout le processus

C'est surtout Eric Chahi le grand architecte. Moi j'ai juste repris son code et retranscris en C. Mais c'est une histoire qui a commencé il y a presque 30 ans, a la sortie du jeu sur Atari st, j'ai commencé a le décompiler, puis 10 ans plus tard je l'ai réécris en C sur pc puis sur GBA pour le fun :)

@@cyrilcogordan9208 Si je dis pas de bêtise, Mr. Chahi était d'abord rétiscent à l'émulation illégale de son jeu mais a fini par donner son accord et aider à son développement c'est bien ça ?

"Mai trooba?"

"Skip-run" Yeah right 8-) Thank you

The first electric circuit is in prison. When you break it, the guard at 2:12 is stuck behind the doors. We found a way to pass him anyway but the timing is very short, you're not supposed to do this way. The 2nd electric circuit under water keeps the left door closed for a moment at 5:08, allowing you to pass the screen safely. Without that, deadly lasers will instantly shoot at you. As their height is somehow randomized, it appears that they can shoot above you several times in a row if you're lucky enough, giving you the opportunity to pass the screen without dying. The last electric circuit is supposed to shuts the lights at 6:06 down, allowing you to run over the fence on the floor. But with a quick move you can trigger the first deadly laser and run before the next one. In each scenario, the game is clearly supposed to make it impossible to progress without breaking the eletric power. But for each of them we eventually found a way to do it anyway x)

Ahah funny one ! First you've got to understand that every version of the game has its little variations, ennemies (and lasers)may act different if you don't play 15th anniversary. I'm pretty sure the 1:50 thing doens't work in 20th anniversary (especially on hard mode, as this one has several difficulties). For the story, one day during practicing I just missed my shield and kept fireing anyway. I saw the guard having a weird reaction just before he died, so I tried again without killing him and here's the result. Strangely it doesn't happen if you're making a shield, and after his slide move it seems he can't kill buddy (I don't remember if he can kill me though). I found it funny so I added it to the run. Also I'm not quite sure but I had the feeling that Buddy hacks the door faster (cause yes it's kinda rng here) if an ennemy is on the screen.

Thank you my good sir ! I never posted it on speedrun.com, I really don't like how this website works. I watched the speedrun on your channel, it's a pretty clean one even though the path isn't really... Up-to-date? x) Anyway, the only tip that I can give you about the 5:04 section is... To be patient. There's nothing to do except hoping that the game won't kill you. It is pure RNG. I did it again and again until the game lets me pass without me dying (or just sucking) in the 2nd part of the game. It took me 408 tries among wich the game let me survive only 8 times x/ ...But despite all the frustration I regret nothing x)

I had a feeling it was RNG and what you saw was the PS4 run which if you plan on running it on console you're best off doing 100% run meaning no skips and adding the window scene which I didn't lol. Trying these strats on console is very rough because the input is not as quick as keyboard. There's a new strat around 6:55 I modified that I'll upload to my channel where you can literally knock out all 4 of the aliens consistently right away without the first one being a problem. Thanks for the reply and I'll keep working on the any% pc runs :)

Oh a new strat ? Interesting, I'll try it if I find time to do it. Mine wasn't really consistent so I did not try it at the end of a run that clean x) I'll keep an eye on your channel then. To be honest I'll be devastated if you take my crown xD as it the only accomplishment in my little piece of a life. But I wish you good luck anyway ^^

haha no worries. Here's the twitch highlight of the strat if you wanted to take a look :) www.twitch.tv/videos/252094210 As for taking your crown? I think you'll be alright. I always respect a person that puts a 100% and heart into a run and yours is a pure example of that.

Brandooates Oh now I see ! Are you sure it is consistant ? It seems like you're not cover if the guard shoots at the exact same time than you ? In any case that's indeed an optimisation ! Congratz ! Mine consisted to kill the last one in the next screen but he could react fast enough to kill you at the same time. There's also the TAS method: it's virtually possible to just jump through the two first guards without killing them. They'll follow you in the next screen but they sometimes loose enough time making shields and taking position to give you the opportunity to survive. But as you can guess, it is not consistant at all. Oh and don't get me wrong I don't want you to give up if your wish actually is to make a new record ^^ I would be a doosh to think like that !

Yup. Happens in every version of the game, it' some kind of checkpoint error. Can't avoid it saddly (I have nothing to do in upper floor).

10 ans déjà.

Well, 15th anniversary version, a CD-one (no steam, gog or whatever else thing). But I assure you I have not the pretention to do pixel/frame perfect tricks. What are the spots you're talking about ? Maybe I can bring you some answer ^^

Nazi Groot See the move that I do at 4:37 when I shoot the 🎤chandelieeeer🎤 ? ... Ahem, well you have to do that. At this moment he's into a conduit and need you to break this thing so he can progress

NintendoHardGamer In a conduit? What’s that? And thanks, I just starting playing and was about to do that but didn’t want to go back 😝

NintendoHardGamer Never mind, it’s a pipe. Thanks again

Nazi Groot woops... Sorry, we frenches don't do england good 🙃

NintendoHardGamer That’s Fine, At Least Your Girls Know How To Kiss 😘 ....If Ya Catch Meh Drift? 😉 ...NeverMind.... 😑I’ll just go away now.... Thank You Again By The Way👍🏾

I played that game for like 10 mins. Didn't have the right feel at ALL.

Ennemies must have a certain animation to kill you when you're at reach. If for a reason or another they don't do the grab thing you're safe. About lasers, most of the time those who don't kill are scripted (they don't kill if you're running). In other places, lasers don't touch you when you're distant enough. If there's a moment in the video that you want me to explain, just ask ^^

I've been practicing this a lot to get all the movement for the water room and the orb-guard as close as possible to yours. When I record myself do it over and over, I'll eventually finish the duck animation and not get killed by the first laser. But even though I'm holding run immediately, another laser shoots me immediately. This laser that kills me doesn't seem to appear in this video. Is there some sort of cycle or strat that I need to do to survive?

Didn't you see my first response ? Errr, RU-vid doesn't work as well on smartphone ^^ As I said (you can find it somewhere down below xD) "it's totally random :p i dont duck, it s just the effect of Lester's fall. I just played until the game let me pass x/" There's no trick or anything. Basically, you just have to reach the next screen. During this time there'll be 2 lasers shooting at you (not exactly at the same time), they'll have enough time to shoot only 2 times each if you're quick enough, wich makes 4 lasers to avoid. There is something like 8 different possible heights for them to shoot. You have to be lucky enough to have those 4 lasers high enough to pass over Lester (they'll destroy the wall in the process). What makes you think there's only one laser at the beginning is just the fact that both of them are at the same height at this moment, but if you pause the video at the right moment you can see both of them. For the speedrun I did nothing except do it again and again until I pass. If I remember correctly the ratio is something like 15% chances to pass. In the commentary of the video (that you probably missed because it's french ^^) I said that the game only made me pass 9 times in 408 attempts in wich I reached that part =p

Okay, thank you for the response. I didn't see the earlier comment until now (I think you commented on the wrong chain). I also figured it was random but was wondering if there was some sort of special cycle...apparently not. :P I think for now I'm going to do some safer strats like going into the water, even though that loses 80 seconds.

Joseph Lewis You know that everytime someone asks me that, somewhere in the world there ´s a pokemon who dies, right ?... The shame, sir ! Just kidding, friend ^^ at least you didn t call me a cheater before wondering what really happens. So basically this is just a "checkpoint error". A new area/level begins after the bridge and the game only has one startpoint despite the fact that you can enter the new area from two different floors. So no matter what you do, you'll be teleported upstair. As far as I know, it happens in every single version of the game (the 3do one being the only one I did not play). It's kinda annoying because I have nothing to do in upper floor, so in a way it's a time loss, but as it's impossible (as far as I know) to avoid it, it's technically just part of the road x)

Hey Brandon, the 7:39 speedrun is a segmented-one allowing me to use riskier strategies and some load exploits. This video is a single-segment. As for the laser section, it is indeed completely random. I tried over and over until it does not kill me.

Ooh ok, so there is a segmented and single segment runs, makes sense. I'll just compare against the 8:03 then. Also I was afraid you were going to say that haha. Looks like there is going to be a lot of resets. Thanks so much for the response I appreciate it!

So, are you planning to make a new record ? =p

Haha, that's my goal, but your run is very solid, it will take a very long time to achieve IF I can even achieve it lol. :D

Ahah alright then ! But I'm curious, have you some ideas about sequences where you could save time ? Or maybe you want to play the "fast" mode of the game ?

Thank you, sir ! I'll beat that as soon as I'll have ennough free time to work on it :)

Rob Daviolo I just skipped that part, that's actually the greatest trick in the speedrun (saving 1:30 aproximatly), and sadly enough it totally depends on chance. See what happens at 5:08 ? Normally, you have to go into water just before, find some electric line to cut in the cave wich allows you to to fall into that room without white lasers shooting at you (because the left door stays closed). BUT with chance and chance only, those lasers can can shoot too high to kill you, giving you enough time to pass the screen. Do the run over and over again, waiting and hoping that the game would let me pass that part was absolutly horrible... But I regret nothing :D

@@NintendoHardGamer Luckbased runs are the worst. Completely out of your hands if it's successful or not.

The music and staffroll are different on snes but the cinematic is the same.

@NintendoHardGamer thx for the reply. I asked about an alternate ending because I had a completely different ending when I played my copy on the SNES. Everything is the same up until the last room where Lester is crawling towards the levers. Instead of porting to the roof and riding the dragon into the horizon, Lester gets teleported back to his lab. This was the ending for each time I played it (about 4 or 5 times). About 5 years ago I introduced the remastered version (ps4) to my kid and he beat it as well and also got the ending I got. Just recently I watched a playthrough of the game only to discover that the ending is completely different. I first thought that the dragon ending was very cool and was a hidden ending, but as I continued to search for my ending. I can't find it anywhere. I asked my son if he remembered the ending to the game and he recalls the dragon ending. That isn't what he got when he played it. I watched him. I have been unsettled by this for about 2 weeks now, trying to find evidence of my ending and/or someone who has also beat it. And you know as well as I do, this game is very obscure. Not many have played it much less beat it. But I did find someone recently and his recollection of the ending is the same as mine.

@@afterhours2103 This is a really interesting story. All I can say is, as far as I know the game never had another ending, at least officially. The first version on atari was shorter, Mr. Chahi had to add a whole new level in the game to make it longer on console, but except that nothing really changed between all the versions. Mr. Chahi mentionned the fact that he thought about different endings during development but never spoke about released copies of the game with other content. But hey if it's true it's an amazing piece of game history and I hope some evidence'll merge from the dev or the internet !

@NintendoHardGamer I know this game only has one ending here. But I'm started to believe that myself and some others consciously merged into this universe from a not so far parallel universe. I think CERN has alot to do with it.

@NintendoHardGamer there will never be no evidence, but like I said, I found someone who has the same recollection of the ending as I do. I can only tell you about as clearly as I remember it. Lester's friend is wresting the guard as Lester crawls to lever. The guard disables the friend. As the guard walks over to Lester, Lester pulls lever and kills guard with a huge laser that comes from center of room. Alien friend begins to crawl toward center as well as Lester. It appears as if the friend is about to teleport as well but he decides to stay behind because he struggle left him gravely injured. There's a brief cinematic showing the aliens face as he dies. Lester then makes his way back to center of room as laser shots come from all angles off screen. He teleports and the next scene, Lester is back at his lab. And that's about it. It was a sad ending but I really liked the game so much. It was so different from everything else that was out at the time and even now, there's nothing like. A true gem.

Sounds like family issues here x) ... Damn brother, he always won...

Alien language: Sorry there, I did not see you, hope you're ok. What are you doing here little guy ? Maybe I can hel... *nutshot*

thats funny and lester didnt trust him so he kicks him in the nuts

stuart hough Well at least that is how I see the scene !

lol

+k3ft play Bonsoir ^^ Nope, je ne connais même pas ce site pour être tout à fait sincère. je l'ai seulement fait publier sur Speed Demos Archive dans la mesure où il est considéré depuis pas mal d'années comme le site référence en matière de vérification et de publication de speedrun (c'est ce même site qui est l'embassadeur de l'évènement AGDQ si je ne dis pas de bêtise). Intéressé pour speedrunner ce jeu ? Et bien je ne peux que te souhaiter bon courage ^^ Au besoin, mes notes sont trouvables sur la page du speedrun de SDA, en anglais. Ca pourrait t'être utile !

Ryszard Adamus Wow, that's kinda rude ^^' First of all, I played all versions of this great game except the 3DO one (that is absolutely awful) and most of the glitches work in every one of them. At least the path I use here is possible in every game, from snes to 20th anniversary PC, even in 3ds and GBA. For your doubts about the "solidity" of my non-segmented video, I'll answer that the SDA forum verified it and aprouved it (and god knows that they do it more seriously that sh*tty speedrun.com). I guess they aren't infallible but I'm pretty sure that their verifications goes further that just watching the video on youtube and "having the feeling there's something weird about it". Sorry, maybe I seem a little mean to you but you would understand if you passed as many time as I did to make this speedrun.

Didn't want to insult, only had a doubts. For example 4:26 moment - You took the down path of waterfall but instead got magically to the room above. But it is probably just next bug. I never experienced these bugs, but it seems i just didn't search for them :). 3DO has nice graphics, that's all.

Ryszard Adamus God damnit why no one ever remembers that xD I assure you the 4:26 thing happens in all versions ( or close enough). In fact you can see that in several playthrough/speedruns here on youtube since no one ever go upstairs first. The check point of the area is in top-floor so the game brings you there no matter by witch floor you enter the "level". It's more a programming default/omission than a bug. Weirdly enough, mr Chahi never changed it even in latest versions. It doesnt help me at all, I have nothing to do in the upper floor so I have to come back downstairs. If I wanted to make a video-montage, I would cut that part out since it actually makes me lose like 10sec x)

Do you mean Flashback ?

@@NintendoHardGamer That’s it!

@@chocolateshogun2511 the game was made by Frederic Reynal, creator of Alone in the Dark (that I speedrunned). Him and Eric Chahi worked together long time ago on one of the first point&click, Future Wars (that I speedrunned too x)). I can't keep thinking that Mr. Reynal took inspiration of Mr. Chahi (who was Future Wars graphist) to imagine Flashback's design ^^

@@NintendoHardGamer that was the first game I bought for my SNES. I just found out there was Another World 2 a few minutes ago!

@@chocolateshogun2511 It's a nice sequel, although Eric Chahi left the project because he wasn't happy about it. By doing it you can feel that it's not as clever as the original, the level design is messier imo
