Ah yes, this absolute ellipsoid gem. I was in love with it when it came out and remember running home from the shop as fast as I could to play it.

Demo of the upcoming "Ecstatica" reissue is out, and it has a very unexpected feature - in addition to pre-rendered backgrounds from both DOS & Windows 95 versions there now an option for backgrounds being rendered *on the fly* in a resolution of your choice! 😲 store.steampowered.com/app/4834840/...

Yeah, while E2 wasn't too good, it looked great, and the ellipsoid feat hasn't been replicated. They were working on an action game called Urban Decay before it all fell apart. Looked promising too.

I know these are just promo bullshots, but I imagine that if you had your conker figurine characters, their rigs would have unlimited flexibility. Damn, why don't games like that exist anymore, with hardware that can support an incredible number of smart-coded shaders on these nuts…
