From here (six paragraphs down):

So the other queens are wild?

Presumably, yes. Those that are still alive.

I'm not sure if this can be answered but ah well :P. Has there ever been any offical mention of Oddworld countries and not just continents? The Oddworld map obviously outlines borders but I don't think I've heard any mention of countries (unless Fangustan counts :p)

I'm pretty sure Fangustan is the only country mentioned so far...

Ah ok, thanks. Just thought that it's weird to name a continent but not it's countries.

No issues in Oddworld pertaining to international politics have really been explored yet. Doubtless we'll learn about national affairs when we get there.

Yea - when we finally get there.

I don't know if this could be classed as off-topic but I found this on a review for Abe's Oddysee
Mudania? Sounds even less imaginative then calling a species 'Interns'... :D
But seriously, why did the reviewer make this unimaginative name?

On topic -
Q: Is there any specific reason why Paramites sounded like, err, Paramites in AO & AE but sounded like pigs in MO?

They were either placeholder sounds or just random sounds plugged in due to the problematic development schedule. I don't think we're likely to know.

Either poor decision making skills or drugs are to blame. Who can say which?

He's confused with Mudos, which is a small continent.

:monster::monster::monster::monster::monster::monster:

if you have some questions about Oddworld, look here, and if they dont answer your questions, post them on Oddworld Questions & Answers VII which is located in the Oddworld Discussion. someone there will answer your questions.

no need to make a thread about it, but dont worry, we all make mistakes. :D

Is Sam a girl mudokon, also why would she give all her babies away to people who are gonna turn them into slaves, and eat them? also what happens to abe and munch after munch's oddysey?

Munch isn't in Abe's Oddysee, so I believe you mean Munch's Oddysee. After MO, the events of MO GBA occur. Not sure what those events are, as I haven't played it yet.

The only known female Mudokon is Sam, the Mudokon queen. This also occurs with other species, such as Sligs and Glukkons, with Skillya and Maggie.

OWI have just taken a break from making games. Lorne wanted to move onto the movie making industry and is working on Citizen Siege, a non-Oddworld film and an unknown Oddworld film, which will continue the Oddworld Quintology. He also plans on releasing games to go with these films, hopefully.

Hope that helped, ask in Oddworld Questions & Answers in future.

also what happens to abe and munch after munch's oddysey?
They're on holidays, drinking mojitos on the beach in the Mudosian Riviera.

I merged the two threads together... for those who were wondering why bobtheguy asked exactly the same questions

Are they ever gonna release Oddworld: Munch's Oddsyee or Stanger's Wrath as an xbox original in the Xbox Live market place? I want em!

OWI is suspected to work on some port for PC that's going to be released on Steam

Are there any Sligs in the nature?

Oddworld Industrial Logos
 

This isnt so much game related, but I remember seeing an image with all the oddworld industrial logos on it, such as rupture farms, feeco depot, slig barracks ect.

I wonder if anyone has or has seen high resoluotion images, or just medium size images of these logos?

Any help is greatly appreciated

Here is one of Soul storm
Edit: And Feeco
EDIT last time.: also a page of logos from Togg

those look cool :D

i swear i searched togg... oh no i searched the official oddworld site. Thanks alot for that logo sheet that what i was looking for.

i found the logo sheet in concept art.

*merged into Q&A from Oddworld Help*

Question: Where do those Egg Nests from Munch's Oddysee come from?

Like, what're their origins and whatnot. Did shamans build them? I've done some searching, but came up with nothing.

Egg nests? You mean the game play mechanic that most certainly does not exist canonically? Seems like the sort of thing shamans would do.

The egg nests are actually small buckets (of a kind) where Mudokons store various fruits and berries and such. The most common thing they collect is a kind of thick grass that they use to weave the outside edge of the basket every time they need to use it. This makes the baskets more efficient because a) the load they carry from harvesting to the village stores includes most of the weight of the basket, and b) it’s a lot lighter to carry back to the harvest.

For some reason Resurrection Eggs favour these baskets as points of Egg Manifestation. This is possibly due to the high amounts of Spooce Mudokons earn (by doing Quarmic deeds, as opposed to harvesting SpooceShrubs, which are too large for the baskets) by sustainably harvesting plants for the village.

I'm not enamoured by the concept of spooce. It's basically magic. Which isn't a problem when it's left unsaid and mysterious (like the Shrykull transformation, spirit rings or possession) but it seems to have been metricised

What is that red and orange thing on armored sligs backs?

It's an inanimate halogen rod. Makes it easier to tell who's armoured on the screen.

It looks like a pilot light to me. Maybe for their frikking laser guns.

i thought they might have been tasers of some sort.

The answer to the question of Sligs in nature is; Maybe.
There are fanfics about Sligs in the wild, but at the moment we haven't seen one in an actual Oddworld Product. In the entire Oddworld world, you can bet there will be at least one Slig that has either run away or been kicked out of their job and isn't in the industry currently. Valet Slig might be out of a job right now. It would be statistically impossible for all Sligs to be in the industry, it would just not be possible to keep track of every single Slig.

There might be Sligs that work close to the outdoors, like the Sligs in the woodcutter demo videos. Does that count as Sligs in nature? That's a fantastic picture of armoured Sligs btw. Sligs with tasers would be so much fun, I wrote that into a fanfic once ;).

So? Mudokons have different levels of magic power, so it stands to reason that there’s some way of measuring it. I have no problem with Spooce, nor with SpooceShrubs (except for their implementation as a gameplay mechanic). Just ignore the 1 SpooceShrub = 1 Spooce equation and consider that SpooceShrubs contain the natural hallucinogenic Spooce, which Mudokons believe to give them a greater mental and psychic connection to the spirit world.

I believe the red item is supposed to be an antenna. It’s brightly lit simply so players can see them. It’s one of the less well thought out visual indicators of status.

I did see in earlier concepts armoured sligs with up to four glowing antennae.

Where did you get the first two pictures? Are they official Oddworld?

it looks to me theyve been edited a bit, on the feeco one it looks like its been beveled and made to shine a bit. Are you looking for high-res logos? im thinking of tracing these.

I'm not after any of these logo's personally. I just saw them and thought they looked good. I've never seen them before in that hand-drawn computer edited fashion and wondered whether they're official Oddworld or just fan made images.
