I just wondered if there are any talented programmers or artists who liked these games and would like to write an open source successor (or possibly a clone) I just want to know if it''s just me who thinks that''d be great...
Signature? No way!

I just replayed "Another World" the other day on my Windows 2000 machine. It couldn''t go full screen, but by dropping my resolution down to 640x480, I got a decent sized window to play in. Beat it in one night. Remember it being much harder =)

Well I've played both, beat neither, and found myself drawn more to Prince of Persia and Nosferatu (though admittedly Nosferatu could have used some major work on it's gameplay). I'd say I'm a pretty competent programmer, never worked on a large group project before (let alone an online one), but I might be interested. I've only been programming "homebrew games" for about a year or two. Nothing overly amazing, and definitely nothing 3D (what can I say I'm a 2D kinda guy). My C/C++ skills might be a bit rusty as my job has me doing a lot of VB and Delphi, but it's nothing I can't quickly re-learn.

If you'd like to contact me you may do so at: Xorcist@POBoxes.com I'd like to hear a bit more about what this game will entail. Does it have to be based off the Another World series?

P.S. I have a decent amount of time invested in building installs using Wise (and actually own the software) if nothing else I can help you out in that department.

I just got to say i loved thoose games, compleated Another world and got pretty far on flashback to. And i think it would be great to make a clone of one of thoose.

I''ll do the music for it if it has a cool atmosphere like both Another World and Flashback had.
