- Complete walkthrough of the 20th Anniversary edition version of the classic Amiga/Commador game. I made a couple of mistakes but I had recorded too much of the game to re-record so I apologise. I forgot what you had to do at some points but figured since I work it out quickly and complete the whole game in 36 minutes this 1-take version would suffice.
- Hry
The guy who single handed made this game is an absolute legend. He was so ahead of his time.
Eric Chahi.
was he still allotted 5 fingers though???
For sure
Yup.
Agreed
I used to play with my dad in 1993-1994. He passed in 2017 and I’m still devastated, but these pictures bring back some of the those feelings of my childhood.
I miss my dad too
playing games w Dad back then was the best
we nostalgics, we suffer all our lives, even remembering the most beautiful memories that we have lived
@@okdadiso true. There's a reason the ancient Greeks considered it a disease. I recommend the film "Meet Me in St Louis" to all chronic nostalgics, its a celebration of the condition
Me too he was my best friend 😢@@AazamPossum
For sure, one of the best gaming experiences of my life when i was a kid
oh ya man
This is like the biggest masterpiece of gaming, period. Imagine playing games like first Prehistoric, and thinking wow, that's a nice game.
And all of sudden, you play this, 3D intro, gun, shield, charged gun, incredible animations, movements, destroying objects, solving puzzles, physics, water, swimming, a pal fighting with you, naked butts .... all running smooth on sluggish 286 @ 10Mhz (filling Dune harvester did took like 30 minutes on 286) and game fitted on one floppy disc.
Just incredible.
Well this has obvious limitations, like no details on characters and everything made of crude shapes. Other approaches like traditional handmade sprites, or rotroscopy in Prince of Persia had their own looks and strengths.
its one masterpiece but for sure not the biggest... gaming is zero special, just the gfx and story.
30 years passed. Nostalgic. Thank you for this video.
It was made in 1991
@@mrsanmiguel6166 ну скоро будет 30
I think this game taught us how to manage frustration and fear to death, in a way that no psychologist could do.
Even i didnt finished, i thank the designer for that.
After 32 years I finally saw the final of the game that I was unable to finish it
nostalgicc
THe ending was kinda dissapointing, but it was one those things where the journey was the real reward.
Just saw the ending for the first time ever. I had a random urge to see it for some reason. Could not have predicted the ending if I had tried! 🤣
@@rafaellima83 it wasn't disappointing at all to me, in fact I always thought it was beautiful as they leave with the beginning of a great friendship.
Amazing game. The visuals and atmosphere blew me away in 1991. I wasn’t great at it, but watching an entire play through is wonderful. The late 80s / early 90s were a great time to be a gamer!
You said it, man! It's been not just a pleasure, but a honor being in our twenties in late 80s and 90s, witnessing the world becoming "digitalized" so to speak, while this of course also happened consequently within the world of video games; a world which all in all today is what it is thanks (also) to those very times, I guess. I do not have regrets, I wouldn't go back to that period even if it was somehow possible, I like to remember and have so many amazing memories, and I feel proud and lucky of being a 55 year old guy who still enjoys video gaming nowadays like if I was a teen ager! Hope you feel happy the same as I do. Cheers.
It kind of makes me mad seeing this game can be beaten in a little more than half an hour, I spent who knows how many hours playing this when I was like 14 y/o and never finish the game lol
came back to this video because I bought the game on Gog and got a little stuck, and found my own comment i forgot I even typed
Khaos 156 haha now thats funny
Khaos 156 I was very young when my uncle purchased this game. Think I eventually beat it around when I was 8 or so. Lots of trial and error though. Missed those times. He'll I remember how scared I was facing mother brain final in super metroid. Paused the game and didn't want to play. Memories
You're not the only one. I rented and played it on the Super Nintendo first. Later, I got the PC version and while getting farther, never beat it. I do blame my Diablo Addiction from 96 to 2000 for some of that. As well as Team Fortress classic ...I still haven't, and I'm now playing it on the PS4 because it was free this month. Man those controls are touchy.
Same here, I still have it on my ms-dos system
Part of this game's unique visual appeal for me is it actually feels like you're playing in some scifi artwork, like some old 50s posters or something. As such I actually feel like the game still holds up if you view it from an "artsy" style. I bought this game for my SNES in 1995 and even though I was a big DOOM, Descent and Dark Forces player I was blown away by this game's graphics and art style. Still am.
Abes odyssey on PS1
seems to have taken a lot of inspiration from this game
I think it was based on Roger Dean's paintings from the 1970s - it has the look of a Yes album cover, e.g. Relayer, Fragile, Drama etc.
It still looks good!
Style over realism is really a big deal. Style lives so much longer.

@@kruksog Definitely. That's why all of those early polygonal next-gen games from the PSX/Saturn/N64 era look like such dogshit today. Ugly textures, terrible animation, low frames, etc., all add up to one big visual mess.
I like how you left all your deaths and other failures in.
I mean that in a completely serious way. Thank you. It shows how people actually play games and overcome.
More people should show that
He also seems to take his time and show us everything. Which goes a long way for a game like this. It's too awesome not to see every single twist and turn.
Yes😊
That game is so good. I remember when me , my dad and brother used to play. One would find a solution and get ahead in the game while mocking the others for not finding it, and then at one point, somebody else would find it. We shared those moments it was so cool
this game lowkey looks like an indie game you'd see released today
it's the remastered version from 2011.
Yep
The original game is from 1991
That's because it is an indie game and has influence to this day on the indie landscape.
Dude shush this game is awesome I used to play it but I lost it in an old iPad or something as old as when i used to play infinity blade
Dayum... What a nostalgia trip.
I'm actually old enough to remember when these types of graphics were considered to be cutting edge! Good times...
Thx for the trip down memory lane. 😉👍
You're actually watching a remastered version. Theres a key/button you press on your controls to switch between this and the original. The original is far more pixelated
I’m just replaying this game on the 20th anniversary edition on my vita as an old adult after beating it numerous times as a kid. I got stuck a few times and I’m kind of surprised as a kid I figured this all out. Many parts I remember and some I forgot. It still impresses me the world that was created and how cinematic the intro was. It’s wild how short it is by today’s standards.
I played this game at 2005-06 and still got blown away
I didn't want this game to end. Absolute masterpiece.
This game was jawdropping in the 90's. The whole game was on a single floppy disk. When I finished it, l cried as a child 😅😂
I can relate to that. It was something else, it really was
I honestly think this game is still ahead of our time, even being 32 years old, there's nothing with this level of creativity in every single aspect this days, story, characters, game play, diversity, adventure feeling, graphics, atmosphere, storytelling, but specially the cracking ending. (edit: forgot the sound fx and music!)
Times fly you now 38 year old man now I'm 14
I use to play this game at 7 year old
I could never get far in this as a kid in the early 90s but I loved it anyway. First time I've watched the whole thing through, thank you
I had to search "silhouette person running from dog creature and jumping off cliff" to find the name of this game that I remembered when I was a kid. I thought the graphics weren't that great, but the fluidity and gameplay was out of this world. I watched this walkthrough so I can relive this game vicariously through the eyes of CZcams. Thank you for posting this, and bringing back memories.
Wow, I played this soo many years ago, it was so strange actually recognizing some of these levels and knowing what happens next and how to solve some of these puzzles. I didn't realize my brain could retain so much for so long! ;)
this and flashback !!!
best two games !!!
bloodbrother1000 the old 'Prince of Persia' fits in this category.
I only got to play the demo for Flashback I what little there was intrigued me. Wasn't released where I live (NZ)
How about another world 2 is that any good ? I have never played it but only just downloaded it on my ps vita
The best to games from the 16 bit era
Flahsback is the_original, this is jus a copy
My brothers and I played this game for HOURS at a time in the 1990s. I completely forgot about it. It's awesome to re-experience this game again. What a blast from the past!
Endless upon endless hours spent of my chilhood on this awesome game. I remember calling the Alien friend Maitsumba, because of his first quote :)
+John Paul Maitsumba! :D
Superb
+Mark Tauber I always that he said my tumor
+John Paul I just watch a short documentary of the making of this game, made by a french dude, seems the voice says "matsuba"
LOL! I got it almost right back then.
When I was in the military, my room mate broke two of my SNES controllers playing this game - He replaced them of course -
Fuck that guy
Understandable
@@MysticMaverick3527 you break other people's property?
@@hiphop6045 Never. It's just that I understand how frustrating this game is.
@@MysticMaverick3527 lol they are still comments
THIS GAME IS SO EPIC! and now.. 2016! it still looks so coool .. unbelievable!!
In 1990 it was pixelated, this is 2014 version
@@osky8020 actually in 1991 it was not pixelated, given the displays were crt, with resolutions friendlyto the game resolution at the time plus crt scanlines...
The aesthetic of this game is riveting and really surprising for the time it came out.
@@solarprogeny6736yes😊😊😊
Eric Chahi was a genius making this game alone. As a frenchman, i remembered a french TV broadcast of the 90's about his life, they picked out as a 'lonely autistic programmer' when they met a great gaming dev.
I like the bit with the APC, it shows what would happen in real life; in sci-fi you often see the hero commandeer an enemy alien vessel yet he knows how to fly it immediately. In real life you'd be pressing random buttons until something good or bad happened
This was the most difficult game when I first played it in the mid-90s .. I never went past the second level. The best thing about those early games was the passcode towards the beginning or immediately after the first level. It is just amazing what they were able to achieve in those days!
Yes indeed 😊
I remember taking turns trying to beat this game ,Running from the beast in the beginning was so suspenseful.Still looks good after all these years
There was a part almost identical to it in Heart of Darkness
Invited a friend over from school to show the latest graphics of this game. The intro blew me away so much back on its release i could have teared up in geekiness.
used to love this game as a young teen , and so nice to have another physical copy on my Evercade at the age of 47.
I can't imagine the amount if work it takes to make this whole game for just one person.
This game just has such cool vibes to it. The title is perfect.
Last year I flew Aeroflot from Moscow to Tokyo. The plane was really modern but the 'entertainment system' was bargain basement. The games section was full of unlicensed shareware from the early 1990s. One good thing it did have though was Another World.
lol.
Thanks for leaving in your deaths; showing us not only your humanity but also more of what this game has to offer :3
Man im 30 now, played this when i was 10 years old... the feelings i have now when i watch this whole gameplay,man...cant describe:) had super nintendo and lots of games,but this one was so good :)
One of the best Amiga Game Intros (if not the best), a fascinating story, unique gameplay incl. nice details and all thought up, designed and coded by a single person (except sound-fx). I honestly think you are a genius, thank you Eric!
okay the charging of the gun and then the subsequent firing of the door making laser beam sounds so good
I love this game! I remember when it first came out it was on a whole other level of game play.
So ahead of its times. feels like a flash game from the 2000's yet it came out in 1991 absolutely crazy
Just beat it myself and not sure how long it would have took me without the 3-4 times I had to come to this video for help, I remember playing this when I was 8/9 and thinking how hard it was just getting out of the cage, when I saw it on PlayStation I made it a goal of beating it once and for all, such a great fun hard game, and I loved every leg chomping, death dropping, vaporizing moment of it..
The days when you beat a game through pure skill memory and endurance!!!
Omg this game is soooo legendary!!! I still play it today, in 2023!!!😍🥰😍🥰😍
I've been looking for this game for 10 years. I'm thrilled to see you on your channel. I give you the highest praise.❤
Man, it was even frustrating to watch the game...
yeah, especially the cave part, long-long struggle to find the best sequence of steps
@Tommaso Renzi 2% of the game means that you didn't get out of the cage? :D
czcams.com/video/jzIUUuDVxc0/video.html
Man, I remember that game. The Commodore Amiga was the first computer I ever owned on my own (1991), and that game sure brings back memories.
this was the only game that intrested me enough to actually play it to the end. I was fascinated by it
Omg. What a "flashback". Remember that game? Respect for doing a walkthrough of a game i could never get past the elevator lol.
Awesome game. I complete it in my childhood on Sega Mega Drive. So much memories!
Oh my word this brings back so many memories, playing this on my PC with its ‘486’ processor 🤣 that black beast always gave me chills as it was inevitable there would be a confrontation with it at some point!
I don't understand why there are so many dislikes in this video (653 right now), it's a game of unique quality, very well made (and this is a remastered version with improved graphics)
You have no idea, how long I have been searching for this game, my god!!!!!!!!!!!! This game has never left my mind as a kid but I could never figure out how to beat it, but the story seemed so intergang and it was so immersive I wanted to know more about the world but I was sad as I could never get past the first bit
i was so happy when i finished this as a kid, one of the best games i ever played, and got me into gaming
Hard ass game, was mind blowing when it came out. Never could beat it myself, thanks for the upload!!!!
This still stands the test of time in 2023-2024, simply amazing.
I remember me and my brothers rented this at local store for super nintendo back in the 90's. We was just kids. The terror we experienced that night when encountering that beast in the beginning was real.
Played this on my Amiga when it first came out. Beat it in a few hours if I recall. That intro, back in that day, was amazing.
lol Beat it in just few hours? Me my brother spent WEEKS trying to go past half of the walk-through and couldn't make it still. Then gave up lol. So to this day, I never got to beat it 🤣.
This is evoking so many memories and feelings. People talk about being frustrated yet I remember living this game.
the visuals / atmosphere on this game are really impressive and still hold up to this day
Ah sweet memories.. it was not just another pc game, it was like a movie. I was feeling that i am playing inside a movie and after stressful months, i managed to finish it. it was like a nirvana for me. :)
This brings back warm memories. AW was just incredible! I got to Laugh and fear time to time. Even today at IPad I still play this. This is how games should be made
Oh dear lord. The hours I spent playing this on my Super Nintendo, only it was called, "Out of this world." I still have both the game and the still working Super Nintendo console. I completed the game and made a "walk through" video of it too, recorded on VHS no less, but lost it YEARS ago. You found shortcuts I never did and you finished it in half the time it took me. Well done. Thanks for bringing back a great memory of a game I both loved and hated at the same time. haha I also played and completed two other similar SNES games. "Flashback" and the oriignal, "Prince of Persia" too. Those three games were my all time favs on the SNES platform. MY TUBA!!!!! LOL
Fun fact this is considered one of the hardest games ever made congrats on beating it
Absolute masterpiece. It could be released now as an indie game and still make a fortune.
Thank you for remembering this game. I played it a lot, but the ending was never satisfying, since our "hero" never got back home
Really, really nice. Thanks for sharing! I sat in front of the AMIGA as 12yr old for about 1 yr, didn't even get to the end...Frustrating but fascinating game, brilliant...
Wow. Played through this game on my Amiga so many times back in the day. Fantastic!
One of the most amazing games with the most disappointing ending ever. This one had it all, I remember how incredible it was to watch it for the first time, you don´t get such amazing impression in this times anymore.
Tell this day no other video game in the world can't hold a candle to this true epic masterpiece.
I dunno, Flashback was pretty cool
@@1978sjt It is but it's from another maker.
Never could figure this game out past avoiding the black beast. Took years to find it and see a walkthrough. Thanks
I'll always love the Sega Genesis' audio-chip for this game. Those laser sounds were awesome and so were the punches.
For that time...was incredible!
It still is
The alien language is fun to listen to. When Lester was rocking the cage, it sounded like the alien guard was saying "Bra, Bra", like he was trying to appeal to your bro nature to make you stop.
"BRATAN"
I used to love this game. Watching it through I must say my memory a bit sketchy but remember the main bits. 30 years now 😂
and I trying to play in an AT 286 ... 20 years ago
I never had the courage to finish the game, thanks man!! i love it
After all these years I've eventually finished this game lol, thanks a lot
20:49 wtf!! Moment lol forgot how unforgiving this game was until you memorize every little thing.....the best thing is when you haven't played it in years but somehow you still have that muscle memory come back
This game is quite easy though, whenever you die you can continue from the screen where you died. There isn't much to memorize because of this.
@@youuuuuuuuuuutube shut ir face
What's so humiliating about that but was the fact I didn't know those were doors at first, I thought they were walls that needed breaking... Untill I got too close in a panic and they just slid open, making me feel like a total idiot.
@@JoshtheOverlander that's not humiliating, it's just bad game design. People are far too forgiving of a game's flaws in the name of nostalgia
Bro!!! Do you know what type of nostalgia I am feeling right now???? I was maybe about 4,5 years old playing this. I never thought I would find this game again. It was almost like I wasn’t 100% sure if I actually played this or if it was some type of nightmare I had as a kid.
I wasn’t even born when this game came out and it looks so amazing!
Single greatest Gun ever in any game ever
ikr? can shoot ray, shield and big stream!
yup
Exactly 💯😁
Haha you should play more games. Personally I think the water pistol from mgs v is the best gun ever lol
@@Memnoch_the_Devil cool story does the water gun fire a shot or a temporary shield?or a powerful super blast with just how long you pull the trigger?
Eric Chahi - ты реально не такой как все. Уважение тебе... И благодарственный поклон до земли за эту гениальную работу..
Thank you for helping me finally complete this amazing game , i been tring since its release on the super nes back in the 90's
At 21:20 the hand never comes for me. Im standing in the exact same position. What am i doing wrong?
16:36 you need to shoot this chaliender. I forgot about it and was stuck there aswell. Once its shot down, hand should be there to grab you
@@lBurstu Thanks! That part was driving me mad!
@@Yuzoboy You're welcome :)
@@lBurstu Is there any sense in why the chandelier has to be shot or is it just a random action?
@@Yuzoboy I believe it has to be shot down cause there's a obstacle underneath, where this guy is crawling through. Once it's gone, he can progress
This looks amazing even now
Very nostalgic!! But I'm brazilian. This game marked me a lot... I didn't go very far in the game, but it was very beautiful for the time!!
I didn't even make it past the first screen with leeches. It was too hard to understand for me as a kid
The game was pretty much impossible
Loved the game so much back then and love the remake as well. Great video!
Ce jeu était phénoménal, merci
Oh so there's a game beyond that infuriating mess that is its beginning with the jellys and the black beast. Never got past that point and never even had any motivation to keep trying. That is, besides the claims that it's the best game in the world, which makes me even more frustrated.
man i also had this experience, decades ago :D
but many years later i had time and was trying and trying and after another day i had it and played it till end :D
yeah... i remember it was sooooo advanced for the day...but horribly difficult.
Tes It's was really frustrating but there was a password system, at least you didn't have to start a new game.
You needed more imagination to progress.
More like intense guesswork.
I guess in the end everyone needs a friend and pet dragon to get by... :-)
And some sweet music also doesn't hurt.
i have to study this game for uni but couldnt get it working so i really appreciate this in such a short video
If you still want to play it, you need the "20th Anniversary Edition". It's on Steam too.
lol Just remembered this game out of the blue... can't believe you beat it in under an hour.
Your gameplay is beautiful MAN! :-) thank You
Cheers from Poland! :-)
Best game ever. I would never in a million years have figured out that part with making a hole at the bottom of the stairs. Now off to play Flashback.
i like another world and flashback but i think flashback is better
After so many tries I beat it...by watching you do it!!
I loved it, especially the end! (The style reminds me a little bit of Ghost Trick) Thanks for competing it!
HEY 2:20 cern experiment? Particle accelerator? Damn
the idea of this seems very real like this game is a hidden truth! so is tht reaaly wht cern conducts in this game! ..... cnt say 2much!!!!!!!!!!!!!! 2:20 definately cern & with all the scanning technology and it must be tht rfid chip to can reckonition the maker of this game has either seen alot or sub saw evidence otherwise game proberly wouldn't of been made! n games r supposed 2be for kids yh coz thyey dnt understand yet,then!
Lester is a smart dude!
all that hard work for the worst ending lol. I'm finally see someone beat this hard game lol.
They made a sequel called Heart of the Alien, although not sure why they never made it for any other systems besides 3DO and Sega CD.
@@bladegtr34 yey thanks, now I have something to play with :D
@@bladegtr34 And at the sequel, the human is still alive?
Yes, Lester was still Alive.
However?? And I'll leave it at that.
Yea the ending was bad,i was hoping for something more, its as if the devs ended it mid way....the story is incomplete, he didn't return back to his lab
Thanks for the video. I played this game as a kid and used to love these puzzle games. This along with Shadowgate, and then there was a detective type game where you wake up and you cant remember how you got there. Those were great games and very unforgiving. One small wrong move and BLAM! Back to the beginning with ya!
My brother loved this game basically rewrote the story for school once. And we used to have the black og laser tag gun from 80s that match the gun from this game almost perfectly.
Game was made intentionally flawed to prolong your game. Very frustrating.
