Another useful feature will be the map system<br />

which will allow you to move from one place to the<br />

other simply by clicking on the area you want to go<br />

to. The icon also lets you move around freely and<br />

turns to an arrow to show you where you can travel,<br />

and if you've come to the end of a section it becomes<br />

a stop symbol - this will save precious time,<br />

What will really make Lost Eden stand out on the<br />

CO32 though is the full speech system throughout. As<br />

you meet with each character they will talk to you<br />

and impart vital clues. All the characters will have<br />

their own voices with appropriate accents, and their<br />

tone of voice will match what they are saying - not<br />

Team talk<br />

The team behind Lost Eden are Cryo<br />

Interactive Entertainment. Established in<br />

January 1992, they now have a network of 110<br />

programmers, graphic artists, designers and<br />

musicians. Cryo has a wide range of different<br />

ventures and as well as developing for many<br />

platforms, from the 300 to the SNES, Cryo also<br />

have connections with film production<br />

through its parent company, Compagnie des<br />

Images.<br />

In 1993 Czyo embarked upon a joint venture<br />

with 103D, a computer graphics company. and<br />

Publicis, an advertising agency. The company<br />

concentrates on the production of digital<br />

images for feature films, advertising and multimedia.<br />

Sony Music, L'Oreal, Esselte, France<br />

Animation and Canal+ are among their clients.<br />

Cryo have interests in film and television<br />

and are developing a feature film with Canal+<br />

and a TV series using high-end computer<br />

graphics with Gaumont Television. The company<br />

also has connections with Dark Horse<br />

Comics, the number four comic book publisher<br />

in the USA.<br />

e<br />

like in some speech adventures where the characters<br />

mumble on in monotone! The actual things they say<br />

will be useful too and not there for the sake of it. If<br />

you've heard the information before you can skip it,<br />

but if you miss anything the information is backed up<br />

by text underneath.<br />

Obviously, until we've played the final version we<br />

can't comment on how the actual gameplay will shape<br />

up, but it's fair to predict that with the fantastic graphics,<br />

full speech and an intriguing plot already implemented,<br />

it has plenty of ingredients<br />

to ensure one hell of a title,<br />

Lost Eden will be<br />

released in the<br />

very near<br />

future, so<br />

look out<br />
