What if ellipsoids had trumped polygons in game graphics? Witness the rebirth of Ecstatica, a PC horror game from 1994 with a very distinctive approach to 3D.

    I quite like that aesthetic. It reminds me of the original Little Big Adventure from the same period

      Ooh yeah! LBA was fun, but which one is this? I think I definitely played it…

      Edit: too early or something, it’s in the title…

    We should have least gotten a Vectorman 3D
