I'm gonna tell my kids that this was the route I was taking every day to school when they complain
It was dark and cold, and we’d get eaten by robots both ways.
@@deadfr0g I was, but I got better...
In Detroit?
@@berniekatzroy In Ohio.
BAcK iN MaH dAY...
Us 80s-90s kids were tough, lol.
Everything that came after got more and more soft.
Some great world building in this.
It even feels tense and foreboding just watching.
You mean level design or plot?
i’m pretty sure world building is talking about plot
@Raximus3000 I mean the look, feel, and sound of the world that gives you clues what might have happened or is happening without actually explaining it in the plot.
The artists did a fantastic job replicating Eric Chahi’s detailed art style!
Yeah, I saw a documentary on that!
Gave me Heart of Darkness vibes, nice, also beautiful art. Although I am not sure how to feel about the game trying to kill the protagonist a tad bit too aggressively, the big monster was attacking a bit randomly.
Came here for this immediately thought of heart of darkness
lol try Another World/ Out of this World. That game from 1991 is more punishing than this. The second you press Start you're immediately in a do or die situation with no explanation whatsoever.
This game's gimmick seems to be surprise QTEs like the Lift Grab one.
I was also about to comment about it’s great Heart of Darkness vibes.
That’s exactly what this reminds me of. Can someone please give us a remake of Heart of Darkness ASAP!!!
@@miscielrossvillegas6307 x2 xD I'm the same, this video gave me more vibes from: Out of this World / Another world (and maybe a bit to its sequel Heart of the Alien than the other one mentioned. xd)
fantastic animation. 10/10 would love to see a full game.
i absolutly love the atmosphere of isolation and melancholy. No music, just your footsteps in the howling wind.
Heart of Darkness had really amazing death animations, I think if you’re going to kill the player every minute or two, sometimes at random, cutting to black isn’t the way to go. The game looks great otherwise
Heart of Darkness was a really cool game.
Small animations in good old style of Dangerous Dave would perfectly fit here IMO :-)
Unfortunately I missed heart of darkness but I played and finished another world.
Yup, it reminded me of Heart of Darkness in the first minute, I think it has some of the most fluid pixel animations I know of
Heart of Darkness' intro was terrifying enough for me as a child (adult), let alone when the shadows started moving and game started. Agree, very similar feel to it.
the art, the colors, the atmosphere are great, the puzzles are simple yet not overly complicated, this is gonna be so cool and fun when it is fully released
I've been subscribed for years but I've only just recently returned, honestly this new intro and outro pun thing you do is absolute gold
I'm finding these kind of games more interesting than Triple A titles nowadays. I really want to play this game at some point in the future.
Kind of curious how an AI is keeping adults in control while the kids are free. I saw one figure clearly playing in VR, is the story perhaps all the adults are experiencing a false reality in VR?
Would be very keen to give this a go, I adored Heart of Darkness.
Maybe it's like The Evil Within, a VR utopia, that corrupted by... something. Also, kids brain are behave differently than adults.
I believe in this future of the game chips can be implanted to your brain but the law does this if only a person over the age of if 18 and an AI hive mind of somesort took control of everything including the adults brain chips and now kids fight for survival and taking down the AI
Some death do feel a bit arbitrary. I mean the charater has been running, jumping and doing parkour for a while now but they put one foot on wet floor and they slip and die drowning ?
That aside, it is gorgeous. Great sprite work for sure. Very out o this world/flashback/heart of darkness vibes from it. Kinda hope we do get ab it more context in the full game tho. Like uh.. why are children spaed from the evil rogue Ai ? Did it have a "you must be this tall" limit on the mind control helmet ?
I'm really excited for the full game. Obviously it's quite dark but it looks like it'll be a lot of fun to play. I also absolutely love the art, especially the backgrounds.
The animation and sprites and this game look phenomenal. A great atmosphere too. I love cinematic platformers so I might need to check this out
It's very predominantly Another World in game feel! That sewer water death especially lol
...Still wracking my head around the first Fail State at the beginning.
Ugh, that water level in _Another World_ was rough. 😬 (For a moment there, I thought the sewer area was going to have crawling between steam pipes like in AW. Maybe the full version…)
Pixel graphics are so moody
Wonderful!
You could say this is... Out of this World
10:44 lol at ABG going all "if it is to be my fate, I shall make Valhalla proud"
Other than the absolutely ludicrous death by slipping on water that feels like some stupid hilarious garbage they'd do in a King's Quest game, this was a cool demo with good throwback vibes. Really wish the death scenes were more detailed and longer than 0.4 seconds, though.
Wow, that was incredibly true to its inspirations, I could see both games in it. 😲👍 Hopefully they can loop in some _Flashback_ for the story and game-play as well for the ultimate 8-bit platformer. 😀
The artwork and environment is fantastic, and the hacking element is interesting. Unsure how tedious the gameplay might become.
Looks a lot like the game Heart of Darkness.
i got scared for a sec n thought there was no intro 😭
Wow, i freaking love cinematic platformers & good ones its rare of a kind and this is some impressive almost rotoscoping animated gem, and it's more Heart of Darkness for me and i absolutely love it because HoD probably my favorite c-platformer still. Can't wait to release, this graphics are Vibe ! thx abg for showing us so many unknown future little treasures.
Somewhere, Jordan Mechner and Eric Chahi are smiling at this little project.
Sweet intro!
Thanks! Figured I'd add a little nod to Another World in this one! :)
@@AlphaBetaGamer You did a good job! Plus, that game (Another World) was quite the classic if I remember correctly!
This proves that graphics is not always the thing when making a great video game :)
When you said Prince of Persia I was pleasantly surprised it's like the Java ME kind, the pipes & steam mechanism especially
Do you mean platformer vs 3D game? So you mean the original Apple II kind?
Controlling those bots really reminded me of Abe's Odyssey :D good ol' game, along with those you listed. Looks awesome and thanks for entertaining us ABG :)
Game looks great and has some nice light platforming sections but I am not a fan of the constant trial and error but I guess that is just common for this type of game. Also a lot of little nightmares 2 inspiration by the look of things
_In my day, we would grind like this until we_ got gud, _not like today's QTE and regenerating health!_
I couldn't resist. 😂
I played Out of this World a lot a lot on my Sega in the 90's. Absolutely loved it, though it was quite challenging. The trial and error death sequences played a big part in overcoming the different sections the game threw at you, much like what was seen here. This entire demo reminded me very much of that game, but with a different setting and hostiles.
I thought this was neat.
Uh that´s a nice one. Thank you for showing 🍻
i really thought by the intro it will be Another World, like a remake o remaster, i'm not disappointed tho, this game look really good!
This looks awesome. Instant purchase once available. Great work!
I'm not big on platformers, but I liked this one and the storyline. Wouldn't mind seeing this adapted as a first person survival/strategy game.
Has a similar look to Lone Survivor. Looks beautiful!
In the best traditions of flashback and another world. My only critique - protagonist running speed is abysmal. I understand that he is just a kid, but I am very certain person running for his life can do a bit faster.
…I think it’s not only the speed, it’s the run cycle animation dynamics as well
For me, this single tiny little thing spoils the otherwise ASTONISHING experience of watching the reel, cause the run cycle is the core animation of the game and its dynamics define the feel of gameplay…
I wish there was a way to revise the animation before the release
the guy moved like the guy from Flashback but you can clearly see the Another world shining through on most of the puzzles ^^
i'm so glad the game remembered to try and give us some lore, i guess adults were fooled into doing something to make themselves basically dead and completely lose the will to rebel. But children of age 40 or younger are uneffected and get to learn the hard lessons of hacking computer systems, being at a constant jog, and avoiding zombie dog which somehow has some will to live. i'm no expert but last i checked dog outruns man any and everyday of the week. i'm not saying "thanks i hate it" there has to be more of a dilapidation that caused the dog to only be able to move as fast as it can but be slower than 15 year old boy and that's some DOS fast laptop to just pull it out, do thing, and put it away. Must have amazing power saver technology.
really neat attempt, i love the atmosphere!
Alpha Beta Gamer, is it new intro? 0_0 if it is - it's GREAT! Nice animation!
Excellent game! There's a lot of passion pit into this one
Whoa! It's wonderfully scarry! Carry on!
The most scary thing for me,was how the City background seemd so peaceful
Honestly this is the best pixel animation....EVAR!!! :)
I am happy I came across this gem.
that's just absolutely amazing
That's beautiful pixel art right there!
Whoa, that boy has more core arm and core strength that I may ever have in my lifetime
What's the purpose of that dog if it lets ABG to get eaten and itself to just watch, indifferent to what has just happened. Morals of ABG's plane of existence are an eldritch mystery to me.
Haha, the dog's seen a lot of shit. It takes a lot to faze him! :)
@@AlphaBetaGamer That bone is of the few remaining things that are still able to move him, make him wake up in the morning.
It's like every Eric Chahi game all rolled into one!
1:17 "Hudson! Run a bypass!" Then the Hudson Bee appears and kills you to Deth.
6:24 "Civvie 11's not gonna like this." 🙃
6:36 Only children would have the energy to run, jump, and climb like that. 😅
6:54 / 9:15 / 10:04 Remember the drowning animation in Another World?
7:56 Remember that one part in that one game?
10:30 / 10:35 Notice how the platform angle changes. Just that detail alone sets this game apart from Flashback and 'Prince of Persia'.
11:20 Remember the Robot Spy from the original 'Jonny Quest'?
12:26 Proper heels-down Slav squat. Keep it cheeki breeki!
Very nice tribute.
Nice!!
Not very often do we get to play such a beautiful game! I'm buying this today!
Looks interesting!
Run Forest run!
The jumping and climbing really remind me ofthe retro Prince of Persia.
100% a game I would smoke a bowl and watch a longplay of. The only critique I would have is the "Rogue AI has taken over the world caption." In the adage of show don't tell, I don't know if it was necessary since there is so much environmental storytelling going on. Really engrossing work.
Glad to see more people that have played Heart of Darkness oh Boy 20+ years ago 😬
Wow !! I love the art work !!
What!!?? Omg! That’s amazing!
Where can I get this?!?
TMM!
(like hearth of darkness or another world)
This setting with a different color in the sky, turning the city into a dark environment with lighted buildings and zombified people in the windows as if they were plugged into something. It makes me imagine a world where these alien beings keep people trapped in their homes. It disturbed me. I wish this project success!
Fabulous art style, very foreboding. Definitely harks back to Another World and Flashback.
Amazing world building and design. Respect to the devs!!! Game has some serious Another World and Heart of Darkness vibes. Makes me wonder-- what is so special about these games, these settings... they are so mysterious and memorable.
"... only children are free of its control"
WE ARE FUCKED!
Nice. I didn't even knew where 13 minutes went. 😊
VERY excited to one day play this. Gorgeous atmosphere. Keep it up!
Simple narrative experience. The gameplay might feels cheap but i adore the visuals.
this game looks absolutly stuning, the visuals, the ambience are really good, and the gameplay seems a solid experience, a flashback style game.
I really want to play it and know the full story and the why's? of that "hellish" world.
The only big suggestion i would give you is the death animations, if you are gonna kill the player time over time over time, add diff death animations (like in heart of darkness), you are building an amazing world, dont let it just be a black screen.
It’s like Inside or Limbo but with colors.
Neat.
Pretty good , 90's vibes everywhere
This kid is super strong. He can do more pull ups than 99% of adults.
Wooow
Cool!
I LOVE this kind of platformer
Good job!
X33
I am strongly reminded of Another World by how this begins...
Heart of darkness and flashback had a baby together. What a masterpiece!
It's been ~6 years since the last time I saw a game demo and wanted to play it. But now it's over
Man, can you imagine not only did you slip but you also drowned in doodoo water, what a way to go
God damn it, you always get me with your puns 😂
This gives me Simon Stalenhag vibes. It feels a lot like Electric State.
The freaking color pallette 😳
Total mood, that plus the ambient sounds,
Perfection 🏆
I could watch an hour of a playthrough like this
Every day of my life
No music or characters chatting away;
Just those ambient sounds
And that color pallette, omg
Please someone make this game 😬
3:36 guess he's not going to be America's Next Top Model Santa...
He ate too much cookies.
@@undefinedundefined7420 ha ha ha, nice one!
Wow, pretty game! That kid has iron fingers and probably the world's greatest appreciation of why you don't let an AI design a sewer system.
Awesome. I hope Jordan Mechner and his brother David (Jordan's model for Prince of Persia) see this. They'd get a kick out of it, I'm sure.
I lile everything but the seemingly unreasonable deaths. Not sure how far back the game sends you, but dayum, with how some things blend in, it really should try harder in telling you that something may be dangerous
Holy shit, that was tense even to watch.
Made me remember another world like i finished it yesterday. Good reciepe.
Amazing! You pretty much have all that's needed to do the game here ! It would be a pity not to develop this.
This game looks insane
Amazing work :D Can't wait to see the full game :3
This slightly feels like one of those adventure game books where you may choose the next scenes with a few random pages provided, and you'll never know what's next unless you cheated by reading through every options, and then retracing your previous pages to avoid from instantly dying. The vibe, at least.
My only example is just the Magnakai series by Joe Dever, though.
Aah, I used to read that in my school libraries what is that called?
@@samsebin7895 the Lone Wolf series by Joe Dever 👍🏼👍🏼👍🏼
so nice looking forward to the full game keep up the good work🤘😎
When i was about 17-18 years old, we dropped some acid at a friend's flat. Among a lot of silly stuff that happened that night, i ate a paper where he had written codes for Another World levels. I remember them to this day. HTDC, KRFK, KLFB, it's all there.
So, if you need to pass some super-hard exam, you can just relax, you don't have to study at all.
Just drop LSD and then eat the textbook. You're gonna ace the exam. And you're gonna remember it even 30yrs after that. It's a foolproof method!
Is the music used in your intro something you did, or is it some soundtrack? I absolutely love it, and would like to listen to it some more.
Thank you, it's my music for the game! if you get the demo, you can hear the track in full
This is beautiful!
Nice new intro !
Any plans for the full game? Will 100% buy it. Bought Pigsaw from you and absolutely loved it!
What a gorgeous work!
Reminds me of the game "Heart Of Darkness" on psx
Great work!
Fabulous !
This is amazing I love these kind of games, not enough games in this Genre!
That's really beautiful
This kid has fantastic upper arm strength.. after all that climbing it's the dog chase that finally tires him out.
