Abe's Audio Diary

Posted 02-28-2012 at 04:13 PM by AstraVexx

I'm working on an alternate audio story where Abe keeps a sort of audio diary called a "Blab-Boxx", and uses it to describe the events as he would. For example, how he spent his last night in his sleeping cell before he found out about the Glukkons plan to make Mudokon Pops.

Or maybe setting up camp in the Stockyards and recording how terrifying it was to escape Rupture Farms.

Here's a rough version (still recovering from a cold ) :-

Just thought I'd post it to my blog since I figured more people would hear it that way

NOTE: One part mentioned where Abe forgot where he used to live. This is due to one of the original plans I found in the the "Art of Oddworld" book, was that Abe was intended to be a self-sustaining fisherman living in the wild and was later forced into slavery by Rupture Farms. I always found that story to be an interesting alternative than him just being Born in Rupture Farms.

Okay, so I did gingerly download it, expecting you to be shit in all honesty. But holy fuck, I was wrong. Dude this is pretty fucking good. You have the accent almost nailed.

Quite good, I especially liked the slig bit. If Abe was a little off, the slig was more or less spot on, in terms of accent.

I don't know if what Abe is saying is completely in character, but it works pretty well for me.

I was pleasantly suprised when it started. You're really good, more please.

It's not entirely in character, as I would expect Abe to be much more on edge/afraid and not as happy as he sounds. But you've certainly pleasantly surprised me as well. Good work!

No need to be like that. His comment was precisely what was going through my mind when I posted that.

That Abe voice is almost perfect!

I used to think it was a penis. So OANST <3 would mean 'I want to put my penis in OANST' i.e. sex.
