Please Help Me Identify a Game
Depending on where you live, it was either called "Out Of This World" or "Another World". It's a cool game, because the engine was written as a kind of "virtual machine" that interprets game bytecode. And the interpreter itself was pretty small, and easy to port to new platforms, so although the game started on the Amiga and Atari ST, it got a ton of ports over the years (literally a couple dozen systems). There are even open source versions of the game engine.
