Feature: The Story Of Ecstatica, The Groundbreaking Survival Horror With Plenty Of Balls
An 18-rated ellipsoid classic. Cast your mind back to the video game landscape of the early '90s, and 2D remains king. Granted, 3D gaming was on the rise thanks to titles such as Star Fox, Alone in the Dark, Virtua Racing and Doom, but with the wave of 32-bit consoles yet to materialise, the...
Revisiting Ecstatica - the pioneering survival horror that used its fancy ellipsoid graphics tech to fill its world with dongs
There's a well-known phenomena in video games development known as time-to-penis. It's a somewhat tongue-in-cheek measurement of the time players, when given an exciting suite of new customisation tools, will take to create the first inevitable in-game dong.

32-year-old "ellipsoid" horror game Ecstatica gets a PC re-release today, showing us an alternative timeline in which polygonal 3D never became dominant
One of my favourite hobbies is digging up older pieces of gaming tech or software know-how and asking myself: "man, what would the world have been like, if every GPU were made out of Gorgonzola?" Or less silly words to that effect. Nostalgia aside, it's useful to revisit historical alternatives in...
After 29 Years, Forgotten Dark Fantasy Game Returns with Steam Port
The 1997 action-adventure game Ecstatica 2, first released for MS-DOS and Windows, is officially coming to Steam. The first game in the franchise will also be re-released on Steam, but the two installments look and play quite differently.
Both Ecstatica Games Are Coming To Steam And GOG This Year
Thanks to SNEG. Ecstatica is one of my all-time favourite PC games, as you may have gleaned from the feature I wrote about it recently. Released at a time when polygon visuals were still very crude in nature, 1994's Ecstatica used ellipsoids to create its characters – a move which gave the game a...
