Oct. 2024

The 90s had some seriously weird auteur stuff slip through the cracks, and thank god. Such a strange, unique world that holds up to this day, except for the really nasty controls, which pretty much on their own make the game really hard. If you're prepared for a frustrating puzzle platformer, the story and atmosphere takes care of the rest. I still quote the cutscenes to this 20 years after playing it

Oct. 2024

best puzzle platformer of all time imo and that could be nostolgia, but nothing beats the atmosphere and uniqueness of this game save your buds and avoid dying, seems simple until 3 of your fellow mudokons end up trapped between two industrial meat saws also if you're having issues (you probably will considering this game came out 20+ years ago) you should google and download the R.E.L.I.V.E engine, it updates the engine for modern systems

Sept. 2024

One of the best puzzle platformers of all time as far as I'm concerned, but as much as I would recommend this version for accessibility it does have issues with crashing and not being able to adjust aspect ratios and resolution is a problem.

🟡 Requires heavy tinkering 1) Fixing game not launching, resolution problems, bugfix: https://aliveteam.github.io/ - Download the R.E.L.I.V.E. Unofficial Patch - Unzip it, rename relive.exe to AbeWin.exe - Copy AbeWin.exe and SDL2.dll to game folder with rewrite (manage > browse local files) Patch Video Settings hotkeys: F10 - Toggle Smoothing F11 - Toggle Stretching F12 - Toggle Fullscreen 2) Fixing controls: R.E.L.I.V.E. Unofficial Patch have proper controller support. To play normally you need to change steam input to gamepad. Tested on: OnexPlayer Mini Pro 6800U [url=https://store.steampowered.com/curator/42772030-Handheld-Friendly/] Follow Handheld Friendly

Its a classic, its playable. Though i don't see any reason to play this version over the recent HD upgrade which runs well and is very modernised.
