Yeah i think that should be recommended rather than minimum, as in the readme at the bottom it was tested on vanila A1200 but ran at half the speed.

It works very well with my ACA1221 28mhz and I notice no slowdown at all with this. I posted some videos over in the facebook Amiga group.

Looks very smooth on my ACA1230@28MHz. I test it the next days more intensive, maybe there are slowdowns later in the game.

edit: Superman was faster. Yeah, good to know.

[Solo Kazuki]

Great news. Maybe someone do port of full version of Another World for Amiga (it was shorter than DOS version)?

[PortuguesePilot]

Just tested this on a real A1200 with a stock, unlocked ACA1221. It brings justice to the requirements, since it's quite slower than a 68030, yet it's still playable.

silly question, how can i save progress?
savestate in winuae doesn't work because it hangs after loading saved state.

[Superman]

I think you just use the passwords that it gives you at the end of each stage. Its the same principal as Another World.

IT's a shame this doesn't run on a CD32 but appreciate the effort!

Someone above said Another World on PC was longer. What??

I remember reading about it ages ago, extra level on the DOS version

Done I've added thanks as required

[Sir_Lucas]

This is really great!! Thanks a lot!!

[warfalcon]

I have uploaded the full amiga cd32 version (iso) of this game to the zone, please let me know if it works for you. Have fun!
(The idea of this release is that you need nothing but the iso file to run the game, nothing more.)

[Retro-Nerd]

Works fine in WinUAE, but of course it's too slow.

[Amigajay]

Runs slow but still playable! Is it CD wav audio compatible?

I see it is, i can only find the bin file online....

Slow how? Seems great to me!

Well yeah its not slow slow, but slower than the original, still playable as a say, dont forget real hardware would run it a tiny bit slower again, but still worth adding to a compilation disc!

You are right, WinUAE was running much faster. Is there any way to make WinUAE run at 1:1 CD32 speed? I had set it to "approximate A500/A1200 speed" but seems that's not good enough.

I did an A/B compare in real hardware (Mega CD and CD32) and the CD32 runs much slower indeed. Also there is no music at all, can this be fixed?

[Kitty]

Fantastic, can't wait to try this

Just reading the readme included in the iso, it does support cd music (prefs need changing, though i cant find wav files for this game, most sites just host the bin file) also i wonder if turning off double buffering might speed it up a little?
