  • I must say I find it impressive that they actually tried to make a game with this much visual depth and perspectives all the way back in 1991.

  • I used to love this game as a kid. I passed it with the "nintendo power" magazine, which is what I used when I couldn't pass a game. "flashback" was another one of my all time favorite snes games.

  • is the game really only like 20mins long? as a kid I couldn't pass the dog so I gave up :p

  • @redxmg333 If you don't know what you're doing and just kinda feel your way through the puzzles it shouldn't take more than an hour. The game has many auto-saves, a novel feature for the time.

  • BEST. ENDING. EVER!!!!!!!!!!!!1

  • That was the greatest THE END I have ever seen :0

  • yo whats good with the ending to this game... where the fuck does the guy go after the dragon takes him away?

  • makes you kinda glad you werent alive when these games came out.

  • @maxgunn555

    What are you trying to say? This game is a masterpiece.

  • @grounder i'm sure this game is, but i meant in reference to most of the games of this time in which graphics /gameplay like these were the norm.

  • @grounder yea i totally agree

  • This game is so fucking strange...

  • its more of a cave man than an alien

  • yah, well done here. this was my favorite game for a long time - it presented better on my macintosh, but the SNES port was true to the original.

  • can you tell me why you had to shoot that water wall or whatever it is, what it activates? 0:25

  • @Elmerboy29 That's to disable the alarms/doors. It allows you to make the drop down at 1:30 ish without being instantly shot.

  • omg i loved this game, what a shitty ending though

  • played this a ton as a kid i don't think i got far at all.. very tough

  • This was a very hard game.

  • Ohhhh okay... woww.. I didn't know you had to shoot the light off hanging from the chain in order to free our pal! Perfect thank you sir and what an epic game! This brings back memories. I used to have the DOS version of this game on the old school huge ass floppy disk! Hahaha my oh my how times have changed.

  • The dude won't come and give me a hand up the hatch!! WTF! Is it bugged or what? I've tried over and over, shootin aliens forever and still no rescue from my pal! Anybody else having this problem?

  • @GreatAmericanHero206 If you can see your alien buddy in the air ducts in the previous room that means he's still alive. In the grate room you have to go all the way to the right wall to trigger him to open the room.

  • The dude won't come and give me a hand up the hatch!! WTF! Is it bugged or what? I've tried over and over, shootin aliens forever and still no rescue from my pal! Anybody else having this problem?

  • This is one of my all time favorite SNES games. It's a hard bastard until you find out what you need to do in each part. Nice run by the way, that took skill.

  • They don't make crazy creative games like this anymore. companies still have great ideas but they are too afraid of a flop.. too much worrying about money and too little on creativity

  • how does one link to a specific time in a video? for use on a forum.

  • This game is one of the best games ever, the sequel is ruined everything but as chahi said, is not canon so is like an not official sequel, i considerit a fan made fucked up sequel of very bad taste.

  • bad game

  • magnificent run man!

  • ... the end?

  • wtf so you fly away with your gay friend on a dragon who will moleste you at the end . does anyone know how you got on that planet in the first place or who are you who is your friend and where are you going

  • @babyoilnhand The character is Lester Knight Chaykin, who got sent to "Another World" 'cuz lightning struck his particle accelerator.

    As for the ending... play the sequel. Or don't, 'cuz it's "ruined forever"

  • @Nirakolov Why is the sequel "Ruined forever"???

  • @watcbd The sequel is pretty poor in general. Notably the spoiler of the sequel destroys any enjoyment of either game.

  • thats right the game was called flashback i remember now, but this is an awsome speed run here

  • @babyoilnhand flashback is a complete different game a has nthing to do with this, there was a little confusion but they are different and flashback is no a sequel or a prequel

  • Damn, nice work there! I tried playing this when I was probably 5, and I never even got as far as being captured. I just got a really good emulator for my vista so it was great getting to remember things from childhood.

  • 2:11 on mine the guy doesn't come!?!??!?!!

    i stand in the right spot and hold my ground wait and keep spamming the enemies and he doesn't come!!!

  • Such a strange but excellent game.

    Flashback was better though.

  • this game always reminded me of some epic interactive movie

  • I always thought it was too short; still, a great game though for what it is. I LOVE the freaking pwnage charged up blue shots from the guns! Kind of like Sabin's Aura Beam from FF3/6.

  • I can't wait until the AVGN reviews this.

  • wow brings back memories i can remember beating this game back in the 90's when i was 12. messed up ending then, messed up ending now. (broken legs on an alien planet) lose-lose situation.

  • this game was like one great big close call

  • there's something really deep about this game.

  • this was a great game, I just wish we had better version of this game on our current consoles

  • @sclctrading true dat! They need to remake and/or make a wii-quel lol!

  • @SvenStadt Actually, there is a reamke for iOS

  • omg, remember this game shit lol

  • run forest run LOL

  • lol, I couldn't even get past the first part when I played this a long time ago. Good job to you! :D

  • What a short game :(

  • @Aibit654 he only made it look short.

  • yea i think in the time he made it to the end i was still dying from the wolf thing in the beginning lol

  • I loved that game - great job.

  • This is an epic game. Revolutionary for its time.

    And the graphical design is way better than most of the new games today.

  • It's been years since I've seen this game. I never finished it back in the day. Nice to see the ending, as such.

  • Yeah it was meant to be ambiguous (the ending). You were never completely sure of his fate. But then the sequel came around and that was that...

  • Lester is such a weak guy. He's having such a hard time crawling, running, swimming, and just about anything. If it were not for that gun, he would have been dead long ago.

    And what the HELL was with that ending. I saw it a long time ago, but now it just seems really screwed up...Dude never makes it home or something. And his legs're broken.

  • I always kinda liked the ending... like, being carried by the alien and riding an alien pterodactyl into the sunset. "WE'RE FREE!!!" (Well, there's no Sun, but still)

    The music for the ending on the PC version is very interesting; gives the ending a different, almost romantic feel.

    Of course, then that blasted sequel ruined everything.

  • The sequel not only killed Lester, but denied the player any hope of him returning home at all, thus...making the game really pointless for some. Still, you did this way better than i ever could.

  • man this game is F**** up but i like it.. they give no effort to the game!

  • what a weird game

  • The first time I got to the "coliseum" stage I was like 'what the F is this?" Sooooo weird. Still not really sure what you need to od, press all the buttons until the flashing one appears then press it to eject?

  • SUCH a great game.  Thanks for these videos, seriously.

  • Those aliens sure have bad accuraccy.

    I mean, your running in a line! its not like shooting a fly with a shotgun at a HUGE distance!

  • It's been years since I've played this game, only to find out I made it to the very last sequence and was unable to figure out what to do... arrrgh! A very fun game!

  • Same thing happened to me, I played the game when it first come out, so of course no internet, and I got stuck too at the end, so I actually called the game tip hotline lol. The dude on the other end guided me on how to finish the game.

  • i love this game

  • such a great game, I wish there were a graphic novel based on this.

  • Bravo! I never finished this game. I get to finally see the ending.

  • You made this game seem really short, funny when it came out it was critizised for being too long.

  • It is, long, but the guy did it very fast.

  • i dont understand how the bad guys' bullets never hit you?  And also, what the hell is that thing at the end that you fly away on?

  • If you mean the 2nd room after landing I'm actually standing far enough to the left that fake lasers coming in from the left are preventing the real lasers from being shot (since only 3 enemy lasers can be on screen at once). If you take any steps further the left fake lasers stop and you can get shot for real from the guys on the right.

  • im stuck on the part where the alien dude pulls you up at the dead end. he wont come for me ! i fought of guards for like five minutes til i ran out of ammo and i stood under the hatch but he never came. i've tried like 10 times...;_;

  • ya gotta shoot the light down! :) then go look if hes movin from where hes at

  • Oh ya. Um... you have to move all the way to the right to pass the flag that triggers his rescue timer. (only 4 months late, I don't update often)

  • i remember when i was little thinkin that guy who caught ya was ur mate and he just switched for some reason haha and i was like ''ahhh, thats why he was in prison, he's fukken mental!! fat prick!!'' haha

  • Hahaha that would be awesome

  • you did not just jump over that guys bomb at 1:10 lol

  • Bunch of goddamn pussies trying to beat this game. NOT going to happen

  • I liked the tank level. Too bad the guy playing this just activates the pod instead of firing off the weapons systems

  • 7:28 smackin each other lol i never liked this game 2much

  • NICE!

  • were does he take`em at the end??never land

  • was this game made by the same guys who did the vintage prince of persia right? because the acting of the figure looks exactly the same, especially the jumping :)

  • "was this game made by the same guys who did the vintage prince of persia right? because the acting of the figure looks exactly the same, especially the jumping :)"

    no

  • Wow, what a game. For some reason I have never heard of this game until a few days ago. After about 10 arduous hours of gameplay, I beat it. I swear I must of died about 30 times over and over in certain spots. Some of the puzzles I couldnt figure out so I view your vid as a cheat.

  • why was this game soooo hard. i played prince of persia, so i thought i'd give this a try cause they looked sort of the same, but noooo, this game is INSANELY difficult. (btw, when i play games, i usually know nothing about it except from pictures and what people say about it so i'm pretty foggy on the gameplay itself). god damn, first part itself took 8 deaths cause damn leeches, really stressful game, never beat it, and never want to play it again. but it was a memorable experience :D

  • i like the ending and the dragon

  • how the fuck would you ever guess how to do any of that stuff?!

  • I couldn't figure out 3:33 for the life of me...

  • You need to break the enemy shield while having one up of your own (otherwise he'll just shoot at you). Then you wait for 2 or 3 bombs to roll through to break the floor on the next screen.

  • It was a hard ass game. I never beat it.

  • Stupendo gioco! Ho anche capito come si risolve una parte dato che mi ero bloccato.

  • i just completed this today. it took me 4 days of pain and stress from dying on the same bit one million times over and having to hear the same music sequence again again. all done and i feel a weight has lifted from my shoulders. but was brilliant

  • this game was really good im suprised i am playing it again i played it like in 2001 i didn't knew about it till then so i was like omg the game is so clear and the visuals im suprised it had to load that is why i like it at least they put a lot of hard work into it it is similar to oddworld but human and big looking cavemen but thats why i like it eric chache had a very good imagination i wish i could get in contact with him i hope he isn't to old because i want him to make number 3 :)

  • ...umm...what? You don't find a way home at the end? You and the alien fly off into the sunset together on a dragon?

    Suddenly I don't mind so much that I never beat this.

  • @t3z2pulm it disappointed me too. >.<

  • i bet eric chehy didn't make anymore games

  • I remember reading about this in nintendo power and if I remember the article right they really didn't understand the game either... I was around 9 or 10 when this game came out... my mom got it for me as a surprise but she was pissed when I kept asking her what I needed to do... there were no instructions no hints nothing... you just land into the water and poof you start the game....

  • loved the game

  • i was 4 when i got this game and i was like WTF

    i couldnt stop dieing lol till today when i got ZSNES and speed ran it in 16 min 22 sec

  • I played this game for the first time, and I do have to say although very short. I was quite entertaining. For those that don't know the back story. This guy is a Doctor who was working on a particle accelerator. Once he activated it, it sent him to another world (or out of this world lol) And well yeah. :)

  • i just bought this game for $10, lol. i don't care about the haters...thats what they do, is hate, great game still one of the best cuz its so weird and random

  • yes, it's the weirdness and total randomness that makes it awesome.

  • *restating comment* im not trying to hate on the game, i just dislike it. its my own opinion and if u dont like it, well too bad. its just n opinion. i do have to give props tho, because it had great graphics for its time, and once you get the hang of it, its pretty fun.

  • when the two creatures were fighting, it was the most erotic thing i've ever witnessed

  • that + flying into the sunset together on a big lizard. Yeah, I can see why republicans might fear it

  • I side with you though, Ichigo. This is a poor game, but more a complex puzzle - work of art. Beautiful to think about, but not fun to play

  • i played and beat this game when i was about 12. good times.

  • the ending is so random

  • Great game but huge annoying puzzle, lol.. Nintendo hotline probably made a lot of money off this game.

  • lol totaly

  • I played this game when i was 4 and i clocked it on my first game. It was a good game but difficulty setting was set for retards or something

  • Oh,yeah. U must be the daigo of platformers or something like that...

  • completely gay game. i hate this game, but good run anyways.

  • Gay game?In 1991, this game was some years ahead of is it's. Anyway, I tough gaia was the most gay browser game in the world

  • *of it's time.

  • no wonder delphine got bankrupt lol

  • im mad now cause i lost this game for good

  • Good vid. I played this game all the time and I'd have been pissed if I beat it and got that crappy ending.

  • Awesome

  • This game made no freaking sense to me when I was a kid, and now watching it again, it still makes no freaking sense to me. Totally no back story. Pretty easy game though. Long as you learn from your mistakes, check out the sequel, still no back story, still confusing.

  • Really is cool how this game was made on SNES. Definatly a great game, seems longer when your stuck dying over and over and lost lol

  • This game is so damn hard for a 1st time player... i dont get how can one find out what to do without reading a manual or a walkthrough (or your video :P).

    BTW, how are we supposed do find out which buttons to press in that vehicle, in the arena? Original game manual i suppose..?

  • Haha. wow.

  • No way you could hold ur breath underwater like that and swim that far at least I dont think insane game

  • what an amazing game insanely epic!!!

  • One hell of a ending
