Proof that Kula World will not be forgotten. A true dream game. From now on, this will be the video I'll be sharing with my friends to show them Kula World (next to the Matthewmatosis's review), it has got very few mistakes (and these aren't even that important tbh) and provides a plenty of meaningful information about the game. I can't believe it took me over two months to discover this video.

Great video! Kula World/Quest did have an interesting development history. Me and Dan (Johannes’ father) from Twice A Man are currently working on an official remix album of the game titled Kula World 20. Some tracks are available at SoundCloud.

I hope we get a remastered, or remake, for PC of Kula World. It's such a classic that deserves to be played even today! It probably makes even more sense today than it did when it was released. Pussle and platformer games are bigger than ever so.

Lovely video, I played this game when I was like 5 after acquiring the demo from a local store's magazine in Poland. I could never remember it's name and its been part of my dreams for over a decade (very fitting), I always wondered if the ball moving in a beach/ocean like world was just an imagination... but I finally found the game yesterday. Big childhood nostalgia trip

Yessss mate, love the cut-aways to the big screen! Nicely paced and clear and concise, plus top marks for Ninja Game Den mention (gone but not forgotten RIP) Defo in the camp of having it on demo disk, though for some reason as a kid when I got bored with all the demo disk collection we lined them up and used them as target practice for an air gun. Wish I had kept them now haha. Hit you up with a sub my man! Look forward to checking out some more stuff.

I play Marble Blast, and I make levels for this game, will all the aspects: textures, skyboxes, concept. And then I thought: "what if I make a level pack that gives an homage to Kula World? What if I made Marble Blast levels that are textured like Kula World and captures the atmosphere of the game?"

I just wonder why it's not in the PlayStation plus (premium) catalog. I'm dying to play this again on my ps5. (it was on my nephew's ps1 that I first played it). The weird thing is that there's a video circulating called "the gravity trickster" and was made as if Sony would release it in 2021 somewhere. But it's no longer sure. I just don't understand why this game isn't re-released digitally in some form. It was so enjoyable.
