"Another World" There's a very interesting write up here: http://fabiensanglard.net/anotherWorld_code_review/ http://fabiensanglard.net/anotherWorld_code_review/
The game itself has an amazingly beautiful vector style. The engine is remarkably tiny, 20kb. I decided years ago if I ever find time to build a game I'd like to architect it like "Another World".

- paxswill 11y agoI think you're confusing Fabien Sanglard (writer of the above article) with Fabrice Bellard (prolific programmer)
- molyss 11y agoYou're mixing him up with Fabrice Bellard, I believe (http://www.bellard.org/ http://www.bellard.org/)
- vmorgulis 11y agoYes and both are french :)
- CyberDildonics 11y agoGood catch
- bobbylox 11y agoI've thought about writing an "Another World"-style game engine many times myself.
- stordoff 11y agoI'm not a big fan of the game (love its style, but the gameplay hasn't aged well IMO - playing it for the first time in 2014 probably didn't help), but this is a really neat architecture. Thanks for the link.
