It wasn't long ago the Sega CD exclusive ' Heart of the Alien ' appeared on the Amiga as an incredible port known as ' Heart Of The Alien Redux Amiga V1.0. The sequel to the amazing 1991 Delphine Software ' Another World ', but instead was developed by Interplay Entertainment. Was fully ported over with everything intact. And it was also no wonder it ended up also getting an optimised Amiga CD32 version by DJM and released as a beta. Yet fast forward to today however and Earok has made available an even better version as beta 5.
Although you can read the original write up regarding the CD32 version (here), this updated version is not only playable from start to end without freezes or crashes, but it was also tested in a single playthrough on real hardware, just be aware it's still a beta. Also as a further update, there are known issues with the included version of Another World, as Earok has mentioned below
Note that there are known issues with the included version of Another World, in particular it may freeze triggering the final cutscene. But also there's something else AW related in the works. So while this includes (likely) the final version of HOTA, AW fans might be in for a special treat soon.
(Also I suppose I could investigate Cobe's idea of slowing down the cutscene music tracks so they better align with the playback speed of the cutscenes..)
So there you have it, head on over to the latest download link and give it ago
