About:
------

raw is a re-implementation of the engine used in the game Another World. This
game, released under the name Out Of This World in non-European countries, was
written by Eric Chahi at the beginning of the '90s. More information can be
found here : http://www.mobygames.com/game/sheet/p,2/gameId,564/.

Please be aware that, currently, this implementation may contains bugs and
non-implemented features that make it impossible to finish the game.

This project has been discontinued by the original author. The Dreamcast version continues due to permission granted by the PC version author. No significant source changes are likely to occur, but some more releases are planned.

Dreamcast TODO:
VMU saving/loading
fix control so that the actions aren't "sticky"
bring the game up to full speed
