A great video about Another World's graphics and the capabilities of the Amiga it took advantage of... ▶ this video
See as well: - Infernal Runner for Amstrad CPC reverse-engineering and JavaScript port by cyxx [title from creator of Another World, both games utilizing virtual machine architecture]: link - The Virtual Machine Architecture of Infernal Runner presentation by Norbert Kehrer (in German with English slides): link - The Story of Another World on the Amiga | MVG: ▶ this video - Nintendo 64 port of Another World: link - Another World PlayStation 1 port: link
Modern Vintage Gamer just did a video on the programming of Another World on the Amiga with heavy reference to Fabien's work. The Amiga's architecture really shaped the look of the game that was subsequently ported to many platforms (as Fabien documents as well). ▶ this video
