TAS originally published on 2020-03-05
Heart of Darkness is a 1998 cinematic action-adventure platformer developed by Amazing Studio and supervised by Eric Chahi, better known as the creator of Another World (AKA: Out of This World) (tasvideos.org/....
The game follows Andy as he is traveling through another world called the Darkland to rescue his dog, Whisky. Players progress through the game's linear storyline by navigating various environments and solving puzzles, all whilst attempting to keep Andy from being killed by evil shadows, hungry wildlife, and perilous obstacles.
Along with basic movement, such as running, jumping, and climbing, certain sections of the game give Andy additional abilities. The plasma cannon allows Andy to shoot lightning at shadows in order to disintegrate them. The Special Powers, which can be used offensively against enemies, can also be used to grow and destroy trees born from seeds.
Veteran TASer lapogne36 (tasvideos.org/...) runs through this difficult game, often with many close brushes with deadly enemies, in order to beat it in just over 25 minutes.

Reminder: this game has some pretty gruesome death scenes... and was rated E.
No worry!!!
The death scenes are "cartoon graphics". :V
I was scared about playing that game in the night x).
the upper body strength on this kid is superhuman
this is probably one of, if not the most disturbing e rated game in existence
This is a brilliant game! What a classic! The music! The graphics! I just purchased a copy of this from eBay with the original box, manual and goggles too.
lapogne36 (TASer) I genuinely thank you from the bottom of my heart .
Watching your playthough it seems cleared this nightmare out of me.
It haunting me years since I played this bullcrap as a 7-year old kid.
_"and supervised by Eric Chahi, also known as the creator of Another World"_
I knew this looked familiar. :-)
HEART OF DARKNESS! YES!
I must have dropped a couple of hundred bucks on this game back in the day renting it from a local mom n pop video store. It always surprised me just how violent the deaths were in this game.
This was my nightmare fuel, also didn’t this game have multiple disks? How’s that work?
The emulator used, BizHawk, supports disk swapping at desired frame.
"Oiiiiihh"
man this broght back some memories, i forgot this game even existed
step 1 : Make a game with cute visuals starring a boy and his dog on the cover.
step 2 : make it E rated somehow. Now 80% of your sales will be from parent who bought it for their 7 years old.
step 3 : make it so fucking HARD that no child can reasonably survive even the 2nd level
step 4 : Power your experimental reactor with their tears and become the world overlord
I played it when I was 12, and could finish it on normal. And it did not traumatize me. THAT much.
I've never heard of this game before. It looks sort of like out of this world (gameplay wise) which is pretty cool!
Its pretty, but its HARD
Both game were made by Eric Chahi!
Que nostalgia boa ,joguei poucas vezes, e adorei jogasso
The loading screen makes me dance!
Am I the only one as a kid who used to hold my breath during swim scenes ?
Nice!!!!! A Classic!
I love when Andy dies to the wall worms on this game
Why dying at 14:25? Anyway awesome game and great run, optimal for a quick trip down memory lane with no nightmares
Very good.
I'm here to rescue my fucking dog! No time for bullshit
When some mf kidnapped Whisky again
sounds amazong on dolby atmos
Why did you take the death at 23:30?
+1 can't see a benefit
3:37 lololol
I have a heart full of darkness..
[Your Edge level has increased]
3:35 HAHAHHA
E rating before everybody pussed up. This kid was a crossfit gawd, meanwhile you couldnt do 10 consecutive push-ups without getting offended.
Rainworld 1
This kids gone bezerk lol
Nice mdr
Could possibly shave a lot of time if they used the PC version.
@@KopperNeoman Geez, no need to be aggressive over a 2 year old comment.
TAS tools for PC already exist albeit flimsy and usually requires Linux with Wine and hourglass.
There is a PC version of hourglass but I've heard mixed results from it.
Really the biggest time save is on the loading screens alone, we're not missing out on any big strategies here.
