From <strong>June 10th to 12th</strong> the industrial area of the old Warsaw Tramyard will hold the 10th edition of <strong>Pixel Heaven</strong>. The event will present old, new, and upcoming games as well as host panels with international industry professionals. Visitors will have a great opportunity to learn more about the Polish gaming community and meet with both players and developers.<br>\u200b</h4><p><strong>Pixel Heaven</strong> is proud to announce that <strong>&Eacute;ric Chahi</strong>, the creator of <strong>Another World</strong>, will be one of the panelists during the event. Another World was an absolute breakthrough in narration, gameplay, and esthetics, all done by a single developer. The Amiga title from 1991 is still famous for its innovative intro, gameplay, story, and graphics for which &Eacute;ric used vector assets and retro scope animations. The game had no health bar or score, and the player was accompanied by an A.I. companion. Another World introduced a never-heard-before complexity of storyline and cutscenes - all that was created about 30 years ago and stored on 1,5 MB of memory, a size that in the current days would not fit a smartphone icon. Another World has become a timeless masterpiece and a large milestone in the history of video games.</p>\n    <figure\n        class=\"release-content-image release-content-image--contained release-content-image--align-center\"\n        data-component=\"image-zoom-popup\"\n        data-image-zoom-popup-selector=\".release-content-image__image\"\n        data-image-zoom-popup-i18n=\"data:application/json;base64,eyJEb3dubG9hZCI6IkRvd25sb2FkIn0=\"\n        data-image-zoom-popup-tracking-views-event=\"Story Image View\"\n        data-image-zoom-popup-tracking-download-event=\"Story Image Download\"\n        data-image-zoom-popup-placement=\"content\"\n    >\n        <div class=\"image-thumbnail-rollover\" style=\"width: 100%\">\n            <img\n                src=\"https://cdn.uc.assets.prezly.com/3ce76371-729d-450c-b373-172805a31f18/-/format/auto/\"\n                                class=\"release-content-image__image image-thumbnail-rollover__image\"\n                data-description=\"Another World\"\n                id=\"image-3ce76371-729d-450c-b373-172805a31f18\"\n                data-id=\"3ce76371-729d-450c-b373-172805a31f18\"\n                data-original=\"https://cdn.uc.assets.prezly.com/3ce76371-729d-450c-b373-172805a31f18/-/inline/no/image_processing20220411-180432-1nnsnpn.png\"\n                data-mfp-src=\"https://cdn.uc.assets.prezly.com/3ce76371-729d-450c-b373-172805a31f18/-/format/auto/\"\n                alt=\"Another World\"\n            />\n            <div class=\"image-thumbnail-rollover__caption\">\n                <svg class=\"icon icon-expand image-thumbnail-rollover__caption-icon\">\n                <use xlink:href=\"#icon-expand\"></use>\n            </svg>            </div>\n        </div>\n\n        <figcaption class=\"release-content-image__caption\">Another World</figcaption>\n    </figure>\n<p>&Eacute;ric&rsquo;s latest game <strong>Paper Baast</strong> is developed by his studio - <strong>Pixel Reef</strong>.
