In my mind LBA 1 was an isometric 3D equivalent to a Legend of Zelda game, albeit presented in full SVGA on a 15" fishbowl monitor! The tank-style control system was extremely unwieldy during combat sequences, and it would be deemed barbaric by modern standards. It was missing fully animated cutscenes and voiceover dialogue, but it was a fun transition from my home console gaming experiences. I have fond memories of playing LBA 1 back in the nineties, albeit the inferior budget edition that had to be installed via multiple 3.5" floppy diskettes.

Classic versions were issued in 2022, with support for game controllers, cloud save slots and an achievements system added alongside numerous QoL updates. Key members of the original team would later collaborate on the GOG re-releases of LBA 1 & 2 in 2011, soon after gaining rights to the series from EA. The company hinted that a third game was in early development, but little was heard of it during a turbulent period - parts of the leadership had splintered off after a takeover by SEGA Europe.

Original LBA series developer, Adeline Software International, became defunct in the early 2000s to the dismay of their loyal fan base. The 2:21 team has sought to hybridize the different titles, but the 'Relentless' moniker is no longer part of its new naming system, thankfully. Certain territories received retitled versions - Relentless: Twinsen's Adventure (1) and Twinsen's Odyssey (2) - this inconsistent branding by market departments caused much confusion during the nascent days of gaming discussion online. Activision dealt with the latter's distribution in North America. The original Little Big Adventure was released and published by Electronic Arts in 1994, and the second in 1997. These updated versions have been assembled by a small team, with the Unreal Engine 5 serving as the technological base. The remasters will serve as an interim proof of potential to prospective publishers of the third game. A planned third game has been delayed beyond 2024, the original intention was to release this sequel in time for the 30th Anniversary of the series, but development has only reached a prototype phase. French developer 2:21 this week announced its intentions to produce remastered versions of its Twinsen's Little Big Adventure games.
