The association MO5.COM and The Digital Lounge are honored to invite you to an exceptional live event on Saturday, December 11th at 6pm CET on the Twitch channel of MO5 in order to celebrate together the 30th anniversary of Another World (1991). To talk about this classic game that never ceases to inspire gamers and creators, we will of course be accompanied by its author, Eric Chahi, who was awarded the National Order of Merit in early May, and its composer and high school friend Jean-François Freitas.

The live event will be hosted by our friend and journalist Patrick Hellio with the complicity of the association's president and vice-president, Philippe Dubois and David Soumet, and the founder of Digital Lounge, Abrial Da Costa, who takes care to preserve and perpetuate the memory of this great game. Many guests are also invited to this celebration, such as Romain Tisserand, co-founder of Dotemu at the origin of the re-release of the classic on mobiles, Paul Cuisset, who notably worked with Eric on Future Wars (1989), and Jacques Harbonn, journalist and reviewer of the very first version of Another World in French Tilt Magazine.

Come and ask your questions live and some surprises will be waiting for you too...

Hello everyone,

Some people are experiencing a control issue with the game and we've launched an investigation about it.

We think we found a good fix but before to release the fix to everyone, we'd like to involve people into a public beta in order to confirm that the fix works and doesn't create side effects.

The fix is only available for the PC version and to get it, please follow the below Step:

1 - Go to your Steam Library.
2 - Right-click on Another World and select "Properties".
3 - Go to the "Betas" tab. If you don't have the tab, restart Steam.
4 - Select in the list "beta" to opt in and quit the "Properties" panel. Steam will update automatically the game with the fix.

The public beta will be last until Monday 16th to be sure that everyone get the chance to test it.

And please, leave a comment there to let us know if it works or not.

Best,
Thierry
