Angry Video Game Nerd (AVGN) episode 183: Ecco the Dolphin. Ecco is an action-adventure game originally developed by Ed Annunziata and Novotrade International for the Sega Genesis and published by Sega in 1992. The original game followed the exploits of a young dolphin named Ecco as he searched the seas, and eventually time itself, for his missing pod. The game is known for being super unique with a great art style, but it's also known for being hard, frustrating, and unfair.

@Dosnmeda 3 года назад

The genius behind Ecco's oxigen-game-mechanic is the way it affects exploration. You need to balance your curiosity against your survival instinct. You slowly descend and look for objectives/air pockets then quickly shoot back to the surface always knowing its general direction (top) and combine it with a satisfying flip. It's such a great game-loop. The under-water environment also allowed for very interesting leveldesign, as you could literally move in any direction. I also love the atmoshpere of this game, so unique - wonderful art and music. In my opinion it is one of the greatest Action-Adventure-Games of that era - and Tides of Time even surpasses it.
