Is there any YouTube footage of the app? It tells better than a picture.

Don't think so, but you don't miss much. There's a download section, a blog updates section, Dear Alf, Dev diaries, the games and the official Twitter. Nothing much actually. Just when opening the app, you can hear Abe saying "Hello!". That's all.

I don't think it has push, at least it didn't ask for permission for it.

In other words it is like a "portable" Oddworld website. Thanks for telling me.

Yeah, for now, I hope.

Yeah, kind of a let down, innit?

Well, what else could they do with it?

I dunno. A portable Oddworld database would've been pretty cash.

Something like the old website with an official canonical encyclopaedia of all the stuff? That was an awesome lay out.

That's still up, but its buggy and I can't remember the URL. It is still up, though. Google it.

For that you can just visit an Oddworld Wikia.

I remind the old website before the blog.

Nate, you rock. Thankyou immensely.
I thought everything on the old site version was lost, but even with the awkward scrolling problems I'm glad to see the old content is still there. ^^
Hooray for the return of content like character bios and other assorted goodies that I feared were lost.

I used to spend days on end trawling through that site and all it's goodies when I was younger.

I had no idea the old website could still be visited, thanks Nate!

Indeed, I used to spend a while reading the stuff and checking the goodies.

Heh I tought that site was too good to be lost, glad to see some of you guys think so too.
Note that other Oddworld sites were also backed up and made available here:

Aside from typing in the full address, is there any way to get around the scrolling issues? It's pretty inconvenient going back to the root menu every time.

Thanks for the links as well, I always lose the URL

Try using Internet Explorer.

Or a combination of the tab and enter keys and a whole lot of blind luck. Works for me.

Please let there be a fart button

Thanks Nate, worked for me.

A self-contained portable encyclopedia would be great to read on the train.

Here:

Wait... it doesn't let you play videos? If I'm correct, that phone's running on Android 4.0 or 4.1, and the only devices that run that OS are high-end, so they should support flash, so it's the app itself that can't play videos. Oh well, nice interface.

It's running on an iPad.

......

What's your point, Steamer_KING?

That it's running on an iPad, not Android, as you said.

What? I thought it was running on Android 4? It really looks similar, oh well that must just be the app interface, I look like a right twat now.

Really? Only now?

He almost forgot. He's a twat.

How could I possibly forget that?

You didn't really.

Which I said. Thus you didn't need to say it.

But it is running on the iPad, Nate. It really is.

I was just emphasizing your answer to Nepsotic, just that.

I was emphasizing the word "is."

Nepsotic got that.

Shut up the both of you.

Damn it Steamer! I was about the post that :lol:

Fast and stealthy, that's my style.
