Out of This World (known as Another World outside of North America) is a true gaming classic, hitting systems as diverse as the Super Nintendo and iOS since its 1991 arrival on the Commodore Amiga. Creator Eric Chahi has now given his blessing to one more adaptation of the game on an unlikely console.
Hardcore Gamer: To celebrate the 25th anniversary of Another World, Black Screen Records and The Digital Lounge decided to produce a physical release of the soundtrack by Jean-François Freitas.

The game isn't called 'Out of this World' it's called 'Another World.'
In Part 1 of the series, G4@Syfygames' Kevin Tucker looks at a few examples of when developers opted to do something outside of their usual fair and examined the impact those efforts had upon their careers and the industry as a whole.
It's important for developers to think outside the box and try new things. The more you try the more you can learn from it and build something better. A great example is ND. Look how much that company has grown and how much they've learn from the different ways they've talked each game they've come out with. That's one of the reasons why I love developers to dip their toes in with different genres and new ips. Psyched for horizon from GG for that very same reason.
Agreed. Though I do feel saddened in those times when developers go all-in on a new idea and it doesn't work out.
Carl Williams writes, "I am from North America so I will be using the name Out of this World instead of Another World since that is what I know it by. When Out of this World hit in the early 1990’s on the Super Nintendo it was a revelation in gaming. For many it was not quite their thing, for some of us it was amazing. The Super Nintendo was not known for its polygon power yet here was this smooth action game made up of nothing but them. Unlike other action/adventure games, Out of this World broke things up with cinematics. You were told a story without a single bit of dialogue. There were camera angle changes, beautifully detailed, in their minimalist style, scenes to figure out and more. Interplay did well to bring this title out."
People were crazy to program for this thing to begin with.
I had an Atari 2600 growing up, but I don't remember the Jaguar.
Good read!
Ah...the true death knell for Atari. The little quasi-64-bit system that could.
