The Super Nintendo version (called "Out of This World") is definitely worth checking out. There's a cool music soundtrack throughout the whole game which not only sounds incredible to this day, but _really_ added to the feel of the game. It made game play feel very cinematic!

The PC, Amiga and Genesis ports don't have any music, except I remember at the beginning and end (and it's not even the same themes...it was very cheesy sounding).

The Apple IIGS port (based on the SNES version) is actually very cool too. You can play full-screen like the PC version, but with more frames of animation and more sound-effects than the SNES version. It also has the same musical soundtrack as the SNES....but the SNES one sounded better musically (they opted not to use wavetable synthesis in the GS port to speed things up).

You can try a web-based emulator for the Apple IIGS port:

Just set it to "Transwarp" speed. Have fun!

...to add to the above,

If you're playing by keyboard, "CTRL" will start the game (handy since it seems to crash after the scrolling opening Star Wars credits).

Also "CTRL" is to run and shoot. "Shift" is to jump. And movement is through the numeric keypad: 8 = up, 4 = left, 6 = right, 2 = down. Pause game is "ESC".

ps - The Apple IIGS is *not* a Macintosh, it was the last in the Apple II line (you know, the II+, IIe, IIc).

Remember to click on "Transwarp" speed button, and to swap in disk #2 use the buttons below in the emualtor.

You are at the bottom of the elevator. Go one level up.

Not public domain. It's protected by ESA. And this means... you cannot get it from here. ESA once gave us permission to host some games here, and we have been asking for permission for each of the titles protected by them ever since. However, no system is perfect and a few games slipped through on the site that none of the Abandonia staff was aware that they have been ESA-protected. As their reaction (you'd probably call it revenge or retaliation - both of these are dead on), ESA took back all the permissions we ever had. :angry:

The soonest any of us can ask for getting the permissions again is about 7 or 8 months from now. However, this does not mean we will get them. :not_ok:

Meanwhile, search www.the-underdogs.org for "Out of this World", which is a Windows port of this game. Almost exactly the same, except music is not as great as in the original.
