No, actually they don't.

They do not have eyes and it's been explained by official and semi-official (lol) sources on numerous occasions how they sense you without sight.
Slogs, I think, are the only Oddworld creatures that appear eyeless but actually do have an eye. The others, Fleeches included, are eyeless.

Spruce? So Abe's possessing trees now?

Also, how does the invisibility power work on Scrabs and Paramites who have no eyes and sense by vibration and echolocation? Turning invisible would not shield you from either of these as invisibility is just the bending of light around an object.

Should we just assume that because the power of invisibility comes from a mystical source that it renders him invisible not only to the naked eye but the laws of physics aswell?

Yes, I think it's safe to assume he's more like a ghost then a see-through creature when he uses the invisibility ring

OK, there have been quite a few replies now along the lines of 'through the eyes/echolation disturbances/electrical field/whatever of what he's posessing'. The question was what he sees between him chanting and the creature being posessed i.e. when the blue stars are flying around.

I think he sees like he has echolocation. Only more blue.

OP:

He sees a million little babbys whacking off into a big jug.

I think he slightly sees everything as a psychic force, but at the same time he really can see stuff. Like spirits and living things. Still, my opinion is that he senses with intuition more than he actually sees :fuzwink:

He sees through the invisible eyes of that little orb.

So what Abe sees when his spirit is flying around and about?

I think he sees everything all dark but slightly blue. Also like he's inside of an orb that twists all the light from coming from outside, so that it's like round to him.

(Got it? GOOD!)
