I still have a black Abe's Exoddus t-shirt. One of my most prized possessions.

Crashpunk 09-11-2011 12:49 PM

Which one is it? do you mind if you showing it Sekto?

Sekto Springs 09-11-2011 08:03 PM

Both sides have concept art. The front has a mudokon hanging upside-down in a Tear X-tractor with the caption "Odd To The Last Drop". On the back is a flying slig holding a bomb and the caption says "In Odd We Trust".

It would be easier just to show us a picture ;)

Crashpunk 09-12-2011 12:17 AM

It would. But I can imagen it already and it sounds amazing, so you don't have to. :)

God, I want a offical Oddworld t-shirt now.

Would anyone here really go out with their friends in an Oddworld t-shirt? Though I still really would like to own Oddworld clothing even if I won't wear it in public.

What’s so bad about that? It’s no worse than wearing a band shirt.

Glitch 09-12-2011 02:51 AM

insert coin prefer to do oblique references to games; rather than just plonking a great big oddworld logo on the front, they like to advertise the companies inside the actual game.

These two are to coincide with our release of Stranger's Wrath. We'll be sure to get t-shirts released that are pertinent to each of our releases as we go.

Hulaabeo 09-12-2011 03:41 AM

I'm probably getting both of these tees and a Stratgety guide from eBay...

I do like this approach and will probably end up buying that Sekto Springs shirt when it gets released.

That said, I would love to see t-shirts released that are more direct—personally I feel that the art and style is part of the huge attraction of the Oddworld series, and it would be a shame if that wasn’t leveraged in some way.

Yes, its not as if my friends don't already know about my love of Oddworld, and most of them at least "like" the games anyway.

I often go out in public wearing my (equally geeky, in my estimation) Whispering Rocks Psychonauts t-shirt or my Fruity Oaty Bars Serenity t-shirt with no embarrassment. Possibly because, as Glitch says, these aren't explicitly promotional images.

I'd have no problem wearing these Oddworld t-shirts in public, but I'm afraid the designs don't really do it for me. Maybe next time.

MeechMunchie 09-12-2011 10:08 AM

So do you think there could be t-shirts for the Magog Cartel then? I'd like to see a more contempary design for their logos.

Crashpunk 09-12-2011 01:00 PM

I would think so. Besides, They are missing out the most iconic companies from Oddworld, Rupture Farms and SoulStorm Brew.

STM 09-12-2011 01:20 PM

Yeh but right now they need to promote SW for the release.

Dynamithix 09-12-2011 01:50 PM

Yes, but after that, they might as well make other shirts. (Soulstrom Brew and such.)

Crashpunk 09-12-2011 02:20 PM

Exactly.

STM 09-12-2011 02:35 PM

Well yes I totally agree, but I understand why they stick with SW related merch atm.

Not really. I don't have any pictures of it on hand and I can't be arsed to take some just for you guys.

JennyGenesis 09-13-2011 01:52 AM

Surely we would be at the top of the list of people to show your shirt to.

Michael 09-13-2011 05:40 AM

These designs are great, I always liked subtle references :) To be honest, I like the fact that only other fans know what the shirt is about!

I always thought a black shirt with the red and green Rupturefarms logo would be good. Maybe also shirts with one or more of the Mudokon face symbols on them too. Who knows, maybe when Abe HD comes out?

Havoc 09-13-2011 12:51 PM

I like the subtlety of those designs. They are actually something you could wear without looking like a gaming nerd. Unlike shit like this:

Sekto Springs 09-13-2011 07:56 PM

Call of Duty is famous for it's subtlety and it's polite, subverted fanbase.

moxco 09-14-2011 01:48 AM

Blah, blah sublety this; sublety that. If you go out wearig that New Yolk t-shirt people probably won't assume it's a subtle reference an obscure video game, rather it is a really, really lame joke.

Also did that Sekto Springs logo appear in the game?

Dynamithix 09-14-2011 02:14 AM

I'm not sure, but I don't remember seeing it.

Also, even though I said this a lot of times, I'd much rather wear a direct Oddworld shirt, something that shows it's from a videogame. I'm not too much into that 'oblique reference' thing.

Wil 09-14-2011 09:02 AM

The New Yolk City tee reminds me of something, and I think I know what it is. :tard:

Crashpunk 09-16-2011 02:19 PM

I wear gaming T-shirts that are obviously gaming T-shirts and don't give a damn. I mean why should you care?

STM 09-16-2011 03:37 PM

You shouldn't, but then some people have...for want of a better word, pride, that's not the right word, in their appearance, or it's just not their thing.

Havoc has quite the reputation to uphold within the furry community, they cant find out he plays games other than Sonic.

Crashpunk 09-17-2011 06:14 AM

So your saying wearing gaming t-shirts makes me a furry?
