Re: Contest for "Worst game Ever Made" has a new entry...
The sad thing is, Trespasser without those bugs would be, from what I've heard, quite a fun, if somewhat medicore game. Yes, your health meter is a tattoo on the heroine's breast, but I think it's a decent early attempt at making the interface diegetic. Fitting, since she has no helmet that would project a standard FPS HUD. This could have been a fairly good game, and IIRC, there are fan patches that somewhat fix it.

Thing is, the problems started as far early as conception when it was decided that no mapping or editor tools were necessary. They literally made the map(s) on 3ds Max (with every object and dinosaur!) and shoved that into the game. And then there's the AI that would get scared of the player while trying to attack them to so it would just freeze in place. (But then, who would not be scared of a pair of breasts with an arm that was floating around :p)

 There are fan efforts to remake Trespasser on modern engines though, and it's disaster still managed to inspire myriads of developers, so something good it did manage.

Yeah, it's plagued by bugs and poor design decisions, but it's got a small following. It was actually pretty innovative for it's time, shame it was so full of bugs.

Trespasser tried to do something extremely innovative, and failed. Spectacularly. That's at least a bit more admirable than failing this hard at mediocrity.
The good Christian should beware of mathematicians, and all those who make empty prophecies. The danger already exists that the mathematicians have made a covenant with the devil to darken the spirit and to confine man in the bonds of Hell.
