Oh lordy ...

AO & AE - 100% done (as already released)
MO - 99.5% (finishing up on achievements)
SW - 95% (finishing up the music this week, and achievements in the next two weeks. Followed by general tidying up.)

And the four games will be translated into Spanish? Stranger's Wrath has not translated into Spanish and would be great news for everyone that was Multi5or similar ...

Can I have a job working for the Odd mafia?

That's a great question actually I shall have to ask. I know that Italian and Spanish will come to Stranger's Wrath later, as we have to get every line of dialogue in the game translated to French and German, as OWI were never given the localised texts for these languages.

We have a massive amount of translations being done for the Console release, so we will later down the line roll out more translations for PC.

Reminded me of something you said some while ago in another topic, changed your mind:p:happy:? (@Scrabtrapman, this is also meant as a joke, nothing harsh against our Awesome hero's who make Oddworld back alive on our own planet)


Things change ;)

Hey Gilrod, is it possible that the OddBoxx could still come out this year?

It'd be a great Christmas present for my dad as he loves Oddworld as much as I do. Thanks already! :)

This is probably a stupid question.....But what are "achievements"?

OANST 11-03-2010 02:33 PM

Little messages that pop up when you do things in life. How else would you know that a thing is worth doing?

So has the plan to include acheivements in AO & AE been officially scrapped?

This is what I was thinking :(

psycoman27 11-04-2010 01:09 AM

I hope not. I love achievements, even if they are totally useless.

As much as it pains us to say this, yes. Those 2 projects are THAT old, that to get them to compile and work with modern build tools, which the Steam stuff requires, would take us a fairly long time.

Besides, we've got other plans.

MeechMunchie 11-04-2010 03:36 AM

Oh, that's a shame. We've got a thread full of them :(

So are the two X's on 'Boxx' supposed to be like Abe's '-x=x-' lip stitches or what?

They're meant to symbolise how EXXTREME Oddworld is.

Small messages saying what did you do in game. E.g. Kill 500 enemies, kill strongest, scariest, smartest boss ever with bad breath etc.

Dipstikk 11-04-2010 09:13 AM

I still do not see that Tropical Smoothie I asked very nicely for.

Gotta git mah Sunrise Sunset on.

STM 11-04-2010 09:23 AM

Hmm, Mr. Gilray you know what you should do, send the pennyless chaps on the forum (ehem...me) redeemer codes so that we can get the oddboxx for free off steam...y'know, coz we love you so much. XD

Good idea :D
Anyway, on oddworld.com on the Oddboxx news, there's written that Oddboxx will be not only a steam-release. And every game can be bought separately.

"Admin" should be renamed to "Alf".

I wholeheartedly support this.

lismati 11-04-2010 11:58 AM

Alf is dead. Nobody is going to tell me he's not.

Abe’s Exoddus was released in November 1998.

:

RELEASE DATE: September 1997

No comment.

Mr. Bungle 11-04-2010 12:52 PM

At the top, where it says "ODD BLOG - GAMES - WHERE TO BUY - ABOUT", I think they could've used a bit of a fancier font for that. Just my opinion, though.

OANST 11-04-2010 12:59 PM

How fancy?

MeechMunchie 11-04-2010 01:03 PM

Not fancy, just stylish.

Why not the Oddworld Font? Seems like the obvious option.

STM 11-04-2010 01:39 PM

It's early days guy...you never know, Odd might just get odder

Chubfish 11-04-2010 02:12 PM

It would be cool if the "Odd Facts" were displayed randomly inside an LCD screen like those off Oddysee and Exoddus! Just a thought.

Dead? When did Alf die and where did you hear this?
Unless you give me legitimate proof, he's alive.

Any way. Good to see Oddworld if finally back.

The site needs a little flash game That is a preview of AE.
