Ecco the Dolphin - Retro Gameplay

Mega Drive's 1992 rather popular Ecco the Dolphin had an interesting and promising concept (underwater puzles, platforms and exploration with a graceful dolphin), but never reached it's true potential. We recently gave it some tries, noticed what was going on after a while. And we're not talking about the weird alien-infused storyline, but the gameplay itself. Cult classic? We don't think so. This adventure was as beautiful as difficult to control and understand, and game creator Ed Annunziata confirmed it was this way so kids couldn't finish it during a quick rental playthrough. Both Dreamcast entry (3D game Defender of the Future, by another developer) and this year's original creators revival attempt via Kickstarter (The Big Blue) failed. Music and graphics of the original were nice though, as you can check out with this Retro Gameplay.
