bought it and played through it in an evening, well worth the 7 :love: I loved this game on the Amiga, it felt huge back then, now I realize it’s a pretty short game actually, but it’s still gold.
edit: if you download the demo, you’ll get links on the readme-html-page that pops up after installation, you’ll recieve a key-file that unlocks the whole game
The ending from AW is very open ended. I wonder if we will ever see a sequel. There is much that could be done with the world of ‘another world’ 
I was wondering if a game like this could still sell nowadays. I mean, we were really good at these old games, back then, but have you tried one of them today ? I have found out that i now suck at games i used to finish… damn those games were hard to play, and quite frustrating in a way, just like Another World : first time you played it would take you hours to get pass the lion… i doubt that kind of games would sell today, in fact, we’re too used to linear stuff with no or little complications now.
Any thoughts ?

yes and no. would it sell? well it seems to be selling [but at a much lower price]. then again, it doesn’t take a huge team to make a game like this. as for game mechanics, yes, compared to today games, they suck. most old games from the Atari and 8-bit era have crappy controls [like having to press jump 3 seconds before you really want to jump]. that is how it worked back then and that is what made some game so hard.
but a game like this is only hard if you didn’t complete it, lots of Another World is memorizing attack patterns and when to jump [almost like Dragon’s Lair]. randomizing enemies wasn’t an option back then. still a good game.
actually I think the opposite, all these new 3D shooters are way to hard for me. I also found AW quite easy compared to other action adventures.

This makes me so happy.
Every time someone asks me what my favorite game of all time was, I reply with Out Of This World.
Of course, they reply with Huh?
I’ve always thought that this should be remade for higher resolutions or as a Flash-based game seeing as how it was claimed to be vector based, even way back then.
Edit: Though, looking at the screenshots, I kind of which that the new version would keep the “cutout” look. Just at a higher resolution, instead of adding new details.
Edit2: “And, of course, the game in its original 16 color form will be available too.”
I’m assuming that means the original graphics at high res WILL be available.
Happy Again.
As Arvid says, you have an icon in the lower corner that says something like “Click here to buy full version”. Click it and it will open a web browser where you can purchase the key for the full version. For 7 euros it’s definitely worth it. I mean, here in the Netherlands you pay 5 euros for a Big Mac. And this is a lot more enjoyable than a Big Mac
I loved the original [played it till my fingers bled]
But am i the only one that feels the remake looks… eh … not so good
I loved this game, especially the caterpillars . I loved that whole time period in PC gaming, when games were actually imaginative.
Excellent 
This was the first console game that we had ever. I also really loved the sound, even the first bit of music to appear I remember seeming powerful and gripping. The crawly things at the beginning made me jump whenever they got me… I think it was also the sound effects being loud which had a hand in it too. Nice lasers.
Definitely interested in playing this again- thanks for the info.
There actually was (sort of) a sequel, "Heart of the Alien" on the sega mega-cd. I never played it, it wasn’t made by Eric Chahi, and it aparently wasn’t really as good.
Another world was awsome, The mood, the fact that the gameplay and controlls totally change over the game, I wish games like that would get made today.
It says in the documentation:
“If you wish to play the full title you will need to purchase it. Once paid a key (a small file) will be sent to you by e-mail, which will allow you to unlock the rest of the game.”
I bought it over an hour ago and still nothing! How long did it take for you guys?
Great great news many thanks for pointing it out
i´m very pleased to see this fabulous game being talked and played again after all this years…
i remember playing it with some friends till we were sick of listening the beep thing over and over again!
many times we skipped the school at afternoon just to try and finish this thing
dowloading now… and waiting…
greets
which website did you buy it from??
The french one?/
I couldn’t find the link! Please somebody re-post it!
Thanks!
I got my key straight away. Did you make sure you pressed the ‘back to shop’ button after using the secure payement website? If you didn’t… it might not tell the AW website you have paid. You get a page on the AW site saying:
Thanks, the payment is done, you will receive a mail to (e-mail addy) with the file “Key.txt” in attachement, that you need to copy in the folder where is located Another World.
Might want to contact customer services
