About

Another World was released in the USA under the title Out of This World. Another World Suite is a Rust implementation of the Another World game engine, compiled to WebAssembly so it runs in a browser, bundled together with a debugger and a resource viewer. The author built it primarily as an exercise in learning Rust and WebAssembly, so by their own account it has only been tested in Chrome, isn't responsive to different screen sizes, doesn't prioritize frame-rate performance since it draws using the canvas API, and has limited error handling.

How it differs from the original

Unlike the original, the game itself plays no sound during actual gameplay, although the bundled resource viewer can play the game's sound assets separately.

Getting started

It's playable directly in the Chrome browser via the hosted web build; a bundled debugger and resource viewer are also included for inspecting the game's internals and assets.

Known issues & limitations

  • audio: The game does not include any sounds despite providing a resources viewer for them.
  • performance: Frame rate is not optimized; canvas-based drawing may not be the fastest approach.
