Another World is a Cinematic Platform Game developed by Eric Chahi for Delphine Software. The title of the game was changed to Out of This World when it was released in America by Interplay Productions, to avoid confusion with the popular NBC Soap Opera, Another World. note Coincidentally, a syndicated Fantastic Comedy titled Out of This World (1987) started airing the same time the game was released. In Japan, the game is known as Outer World.To say the game was innovative was an understatement. Chahi himself wrote a polygon routine that would allow the graphics to be composed of vector outlines — which would take up less space than normal sprite graphics. Chahi also used video recordings of his own brother to create rotoscoped animations for the project. The result was an epic, cinematic masterpiece which told a story without the use of dialogue, voice work or screen text, and with cutscenes that led from one part of the story to the next. Controlling the player character was done via two buttons, with the player character performing a wide variety of different tasks depending on his location, speed, and movement.The story itself concerns a hapless, adventurous, and athletic young physicist named Lester Knight Chaykin, whose particle accelerator experiment gets zapped by lightning one evening, sending him to a hostile alien world. There, Lester gets captured by an advanced race of huge warlike humanoids, who send him to an underground prison colony. With the help of a fellow prisoner, who becomes his "Buddy," Lester breaks out. He then spends the rest of the game trying to evade recapture and death at the hands of... everything on the planet.This game is notable, not only for its dramatic storytelling and early Survival Horror roots, but also for being one of the most Nintendo Hard games to come down the pike since Battletoads. The slightest misstep meant death in any number of horribly unspeakable ways. The console versions of the game — such as the SNES port — were made more difficult than the MS-DOS / Apple Macintosh versions (which themselves were more difficult than the original Amiga version), reportedly to give players "more value for their money." (Although it may give some players a strong desire to throw their keyboard/joypad at their TV.)A sequel, Heart of the Alien, which switched the roles of Lester and his alien "Buddy", was released in 1994 exclusively for the Sega CD. This sequel was developed by Interplay without Chahi's involvement, though the original game's composer Jean-François Freitas contributed a CD-quality soundtrack.Chahi eventually created a hi-def port of Another World for Microsoft Windows XP with higher resolutions and better graphics. This version is known as the Collector's Edition and is well worth owning according to some, a blatant money grab according to others (because the first two levels, which are free, are markedly more "updated" than the later levels players must pay for). Mobile ports of this exist (see below).By the way, here's an official freeware GBA port (also playable on emulators, of course). There is another one based on the 3DO version, requiring the 3DO game itself in order to play.The official PC version of the game can be bought from Good Old Gamesnote Anyone who purchased the 15th anniversary edition gets a free upgrade to the 20th anniversary edition as the main installation file on GOG, with the 15th anniversary installation being an extra), and from Steam, complete with achievements! It is also available as digital download for PlayStation 3, PlayStation 4, PlayStation Vita, Xbox One, Nintendo 3DS and Wii U.A version of the game optimized for both iPhone and iPad is available here, along with a version for the Android OS obtainable here.These versions, and the 20th anniversary edition of the PC version, features added difficulty levels (both easier and harder), both the original and remastered graphics (that you can change at any time in-game), an achievement system, and for the mobile versions: A new touch control option on top of the option to use the standard Pad-style controls. The GOG version, while lacking an achievement system, makes up for it with the inclusion of the full manual, making of Another World, development diary, HD wallpapers, technical handbook, the install file for the 15th anniversary edition, and the soundtrack from the Sega CD version of the game. | |

Muzzle Flashlight | |
| Another World (Video Game) / int_12f9804c | comment |
Muzzle Flashlight: After Lester cut some power to the lights, he can now run across the previously lighted area with the lasers shooting from below barely missing him and lighting the now dark area. Though he can use a temporary shield to provide the light he needs to see a gap in the next area. | |

Heroic Mime: Although everyone keeps very quiet (and the alien language is impossible to understand anyway). In the one scene where he's still on Earth, there's no one for Lester to talk to, so he is still silent in the opening cutscenes. | |

Cutscene | |
| Another World (Video Game) / int_160cc6f | comment |
Cutscene: There's a few, which was particularly unusual for an SNES game since it involved changing camera angles, subtle muscle movements, and detailed close-ups, most of which were unthinkable on software at the time of the game's release. | |

Unwinnable by Design | |
| Another World (Video Game) / int_1bd4c0bf | comment |
Unwinnable by Design: Forget to shoot out the pit wall before flooding the caves? You're fucked. Fail to shoot the lamp chain blocking Buddy in the crawlspace? You're also fucked. If Buddy dies, you're also screwed, among other possible situations. Fortunately, you only obtain a new password if you completed all the requirements of a stage correctly. For example, if you miss blowing a hole at a certain place that is supposed to be filled up with river water so you will swim, and die later on, the password will not change until you complete ALL the requirements. All the 15th and 20th anniversary editions of the game also doubles the check points and has a level select feature, so it has gotten easier to know if you messed up somewhere. Subverted with the glass bubble guard kill. If you mess that up, it IS possible to beat that guard fair and square, with very precise positioning and timing of your shields and charged shots. It is VERY difficult though, and was clearly not intended to be possible. IF you beat him, and then die after, the password shows him killed by the glass bubble. | |

Crapsack World | |
| Another World (Video Game) / int_21d70919 | comment |
Crapsack World: The eponymous world where Lester ended up looks like a post-nuclear wasteland, inhabited by all sorts of actively hostile and deadly creatures. The only sentient locals resemble vaguely human mutants who do possess some advanced technology like laser weaponry or teleportation devices, but seem to have regressed to primitive, tribal-like society and most of them will shoot you on sight. | |

Adaptation Expansion | |
| Another World (Video Game) / int_23473ae7 | comment |
Adaptation Expansion: The MS-DOS port (along with all the subsequent ports) added an entire stage between the scene where Buddy rescues Lester from a long dead-end corridor, but before they enter the gladiator arena. The 3DO version also adds an extended ending which serves as a teaser to Heart of the Alien (which strangely was never released for the 3DO). | |

Fire-Forged Friends | |
| Another World (Video Game) / int_2493b31d | comment |
Fire-Forged Friends: Lester and the other Alien captive are total strangers. Then Lester frees himself and the captive and earns his trust. The alien Buddy stays loyal to Lester even if he has to (nearly) sacrifice himself to save him. More emphasized in the sequel where Buddy gets beaten down by an hostile alien. Lester responds by attempting to fight him himself, despite not being nearly as strong. Unfortunately, this worked against him. Though Buddy makes sure his sacrifice was not in vain. | |

Shoot the Shaggy Dog | |
| Another World (Video Game) / int_272abb98 | comment |
Shoot the Shaggy Dog: The game's ambiguous ending can be interpreted this way, although storyboards for a non-produced ending depict the character surviving and becoming a leader in the alien world. The sequel has Lester survive, only to be Killed Off for Real in a Heroic Sacrifice halfway through the game. In case you deny any of that, he gets cremated in the ending. | |

Trial-and-Error Gameplay | |
| Another World (Video Game) / int_29c50e28 | comment |
Trial-and-Error Gameplay: Many of the game's deathtraps are virtually impossible to anticipate without prior knowledge, and in many cases you'll keep dying until you figure out EXACTLY what the game wants you to do and where and when it wants you to do it, common sense be damned. Jump a bunch of times because that lets you go faster? No good when the game wants you to flee without jumping. You will get blasted even though you went faster and should outrange them. You really need to follow the script EXACTLY when you are being chased by laser shooting bad guys. | |

| Another World (Video Game) / int_62259825 | comment |
Nintendo Hard: To put in perspective: The 20th Anniversary versions has an achievement for dying 100 times. Even on the easiest difficulty level, most players can expect to see it long before beating the game. However, these versions have checkpoints show up much more commonly, plus (like the original) you have unlimited lives. You die a lot, but rarely lose much progress when you do. And if you DO get to a point of no return (which is rare), the game will make sure that you won't get a check point then. | |

Sequel Hook: The 3DO version has an extended ending where Buddy transports Lester and has a flash back about his tribe being invaded by a foreign tribe (apparently the same ones they were escaping from). Strangely, the sequel was made exclusive to the Sega CD instead of the 3DO. | |

Gameplay and Story Segregation | |
| Another World (Video Game) / int_6320eced | comment |
Gameplay and Story Segregation: For Heart of the Alien, the flash backs in the intro show Buddy's whip can be used to vaporize enemies with a smack or even just a touch. In the game, even when you get the whip charged, whipping does nothing to the enemies and is only useful for platforming. It suddenly works on a particular enemy in the last stage though. | |

Death by Looking Up: Lester swinging the cage he's suspended in, causing it to crash on his guard's head. Another clever puzzle involves a balcony above a patrolling guard. His reflection is seen on some hanging globes; shooting at the globe sends it plummeting onto his skull. | |

"What Now?" Ending | |
| Another World (Video Game) / int_6b18b774 | comment |
"What Now?" Ending: Lester and Buddy escape, but Lester is badly hurt and it's not clear what awaits them beyond the city or if Lester will ever get home. Worse, some interpreted the ending to mean that Lester had actually died mere yards from freedom, although Word of God and the eventual sequel countermand this. | |

Guide Dang It! | |
| Another World (Video Game) / int_6ec989d8 | comment |
Forget to shoot out the pit wall before flooding the caves? You're fucked. Fail to shoot the lamp chain blocking Buddy in the crawlspace? You're also fucked. If Buddy dies, you're also screwed, among other possible situations. Fortunately, you only obtain a new password if you completed all the requirements of a stage correctly. For example, if you miss blowing a hole at a certain place that is supposed to be filled up with river water so you will swim, and die later on, the password will not change until you complete ALL the requirements. All the 15th and 20th anniversary editions of the game also doubles the check points and has a level select feature, so it has gotten easier to know if you messed up somewhere. | |

One-Hit-Point Wonder: Lester is as vulnerable as a newborn on this hostile world. Anything from aliens shooting lasers, rocks falling, even leeches, will kill him instantly on contact. To be fair, most of the things that kill Lester in the game would most likely instantly kill a real human as well, including the poisonous leeches. The aliens also die just as easily to a single laser blast from your stolen gun. | |

Only Known by Their Nickname | |
| Another World (Video Game) / int_a7850fbf | comment |
Only Known by Their Nickname: Lester can't talk to any of the aliens and as such doesn't even know his alien buddy's name. As such, he's commonly referred to simply as Buddy. More accurately, the game uses a "show, don't tell" visual medium, and so uses no actual dialogue, except for a couple of lines of alien gibberish, while Lester has no lines whatsoever. It wouldn't be difficult for Lester to simply "sign" to the alien and give his own name, and get Buddy's name in return. However when Lester meets the first aliens, he simply gives them the "how" sign... and is promptly hit by a knockout-ray and taken prisoner. Then after escaping, Buddy just tells Lester "wa-tu ba!", meaning roughly "let's go this way!" | |

Have a Nice Death: Heart of the Alien includes cutscenes, most of which depict the many ways Buddy got killed. The 20th anniversary editions of Another World has an achievement system (save for the GOG version). One achievement is called "Free Fall," which is granted immediately after Lester falls from a great height at a certain level. The timing is pretty funny. | |

Updated Re-release: First as a port to MS-DOS / Apple Macintosh from Amiga which added a new level, then the 3DO version has a different art style (besides the character models), and of course the 15th Anniversary edition which is based on the PC version and has more detailed backgrounds and runs in high-res. Followed by the 20th Anniversary version, which contains both the original and remastered visuals, two new difficulty levels, a level select instead of a password feature, and depending on your version, comes with achievements/trophies and a touch control option. | |

Press Start to Game Over: The first of the many things that are trying to kill Lester is a pool full of tentacles at the bottom. If he doesn't swim up in time they'll grab him. If he swims up in time and doesn't leave the vicinity of the pool quickly enough they still grab him. | |

Groin Attack | |
| Another World (Video Game) / int_eaf5a1ac | comment |
Special actions that you can perform at one specific place only, such as swinging the cage to make it fall, the Groin Attack you use on an enemy at one point, and pulling the lever at the end of the game. | |

Big Damn Heroes | |

Big Damn Heroes: Lester is cornered in a room with no exits to his right and the enemies are coming in force from the left. Buddy appears from an above Air-Vent Passageway, grabs Lester's arm and saves him not a moment too soon. | |

Fission Mailed: Near the beginning, some aliens shoot Lester. The screen darkens. Then Lester wakes in a cage. It turns out the aliens were using stun guns. | |

Cutscene Power to the Max | |
| Another World (Video Game) / int_fe262584 | comment |
Cutscene Power to the Max: In these games, any mistake is usually immediately fatal. Yet in the cutscenes in the Heart of the Alien prologue, Buddy takes some insane falls and just gets right back up and dusts himself off. | |

Everything Trying to Kill You | |
| Another World (Video Game) / int_ffd816e7 | comment |
Everything Trying to Kill You: Probably one of the more extreme examples of this. Even the slugs in this game are deadly. | |
