Out of this World: The Official Site


It's hard to believe but there is actually an up to date and current website for one of my favorite games of all time, Out of this World (aka Another World). I just happened across it the other day and was blown away.

The site appears to be created and maintained by the creator of the game and includes some really amazing details about its development. Everything from the original concept sketches to low level details on the coding and scripting process used to create Out of this World.

The biggest surprise though, was to find that early in 2006 the game was re-released for Windows under the name Another World: High Resolution Collector's Edition. As the name implies, on top of having all the original art, it includes the option to turn on high res background and with 32-bit colours. Other than the graphical upgrades, it appears the game is a carbon copy of the original. The screen shot below is taken from the upgraded version.
