Many of you in the forums got it right: the awesome game coming exclusively to GOG.com is Little Big Adventure a.k.a. Relentless: Twinsen's Adventure if you played the American version! Brought to you in fully-localized glory, Little Big Adventure is available right now for just $5.99.

You are Twinsen, a Quetch, who are one of four races (Grobos, Rabbibunnies, Spheros, and Quetches) living under two suns on the Twinsun planet. All races coexisted peacefully until the evil Doctor FunFrock discovered how to clone and teleport. He uses these two inventions together to create his very own army which he used to conquer Twinsun by force. Resistance is futile! The only hope is in the mythic Sendell, the benevolent goddess of the planet, who has found a possible hero to help her make the world safe for everyone: a young quetch called Twinsen who has been having the strangest dreams. Unfortunately, in this heavily surveilled society, even dreams are monitored. The evil Dr. FunFrock’s forces have noticed Sendell’s attempt to contact Twinsen via visions while he sleeps, and have arrested the young quetch for his crimes.

For those of you who haven’t played Little Big Adventure, it is primarily an adventure game with clever inventory-based puzzles and captivating conversations with a wide array of characters, but the main focus here is on the action part of the game. The fully 3D character and items model look fantastic, presented in an isometric view while you explore the enormous world. Made up for 11 vast islands with over 120 scenes to jump, run, kick, and talk your way through, Little Big Adventure is definitely a big place to roam. Speaking of which, you can control your hero in four different modes. Normal mode is for walking around and talking to people, Athletic mode grants the ability to run and jump like a parkour maniac, Aggresive mode is the battle mode for maximum damage, and last (but not least!) you can choose Discrete mode in which Twinsen will move stealthily, creeping from shadow to shadow in hiding..

Wait no more! Grab Little Big Adventure for $5.99 with the full exclusive to GOG.com goodies pack (including unreleased design sketches, artworks, and cinematic shots) and embark on the biggest little adventure you’ve ever seen!

Little Big Adventure is in EFIGS which means that it has five different language options:
- English (full voice & text)
- French (full voice & text)
- Italian (text only)
- German (full voice & text)
- Spanish (text only)

I remember this when I was a kid. Almost made it to the end but never completed. I remember the controls were quite difficult. I think I still have the original bought cd lying some where around.
So what happened to the tech demo? It's not a big deal in and of itself. I'm just a little put off by something being secretly removed from my shelf.

Since the forum category for the game already says "Little Big Adventure series" .. I would say / hope soon yes. Maybe tomorrow ?!?! Make this an LBA week GOG!

Marshillboy: How did GoG implement running LBA on windows? Is it LBAWin or just dosbox? I'd be very sad if it was the latter.
latter

So, that means someone should see if the GoG version works with LBAwin ;)

Someone else dug up this link earlier:

I can confirm it's the exact same thing.

Thank you, bazilisek. I downloaded it during the brief window it was hosted here. I'm really just curious what the dilly-O is.

Well, it's fan-made and very unfinished, so I find it more surprising that it was ever included than that it was removed.

I presume the reason it had to go was that there was some talk of an official LBA remake in the past, and people might confuse this with proof that such thing actually exists. Which it might, I don't know.

Alright, then why was it included in the first place (only to be removed several hours later?)
Marshillboy: Now that GOG have updated the installer to use a CD ISO image, you can mount that image (the LBA.GOG file) in a virtual CD-ROM drive, and LbaWin will work!
I love this from my childhood :)

This really was an outstanding and high quality game, made with lots of love.
And it shows.

The music was also great if I remember correctly.
Too bad that's not offered as an extra.
Perfect timing! I installed LBA 2 yesterday. Never had the chance to play the first.

Instabuy!

Awesome release, GOG. Thanks!

Hard to some up as it has many good factors.
Mainly I think its that you get a sense of both a lot of freedom, and a lot to do with it. Its not running around an empty landscape type of freedom, but more your always figuring out stuff yourself what to do and wheret to go. The worlds rich, the animation and music nice, and its just got a great mix of gameplay. Fighting, Exploring, Puzzles and even platforming bits.

Nearest modern day equilivents would be Beyond Good and Evil, or Zelda. But comparisons arnt too close.

THANKS!

"GOG says that Little Big Adventure 2 (aka Twinsen's Odyssey) will arrive "in a few weeks," and will also cost $5.99."
This is GREAT! Another insta-buy... :D
