Its early but for me I wouldn't mind seeing a career link for creative artists such as myself. Way back when, OWI was a place I always wanted to work for as a concept artist but when they left that dream went away, However it might come back, I would hope so. However I am more interested in future titles vs stuff we have seen so far. Bring on the new stuff mann, the old has been ran through the gauntlet its time for new tea as Alf would put it!

Yes there's not much to suggest when there's no new titles coming out. When we start writing about the way the font should look it gets a bit sad.

I don't have a credit card either, but I have linked my bank card to Paypal and used that to add funds to my Steam Wallet. Try doing that if possible :)

If not, just get a friend to donate and pay them back or something. That's what I did before I found Paypal :P

Also, YAY ODDBOXX NEWS! I noticed the extra 'x' on the site the other day but didn't think anything of it...

EDIT: This is pure speculation and I'm probably 100% wrong, but they didn't mention Sligstorm or Hand of Odd in the History tab, or even Citizen Siege (if that counts). But they devoted an entire paragraph to the Brutal Ballad of Fangus Klot. Considering the re-release of Stranger, and the fact that the Ballad was going to use the same engine, perhaps that's one of the unnanounced projects?

News is coming from The Native.

In any case, the news page on the old oddworld.com was not updated by Alf; he kept himself in the Rehab where he belonged.

I wouldn't read too much into the History page. Besides, SligStorm was never more than an idea, and Citizen Siege wasn't Oddworld. Hand of Odd was given coverage in proportion to how much coverage Munch's Oddysee got. ;)

I never saw this kind of link before, did you?

Didn't the old site have a "Jobs" link somewhere? I remember that. I don't think working for them will be very possible though... They already have a team.

the book is not in the "where to buy" list

Ahem, move along, nothing to see here :fuzsmile:

Oh also... "Odd Blog" has been dropped ;-)

Don't drop the Odd Blog, create a highly recommended links page to the Odd Blog (and probably maybe this forum, Togg, I don't know what more).


Nice thing this background change from white to purple, but I can hardly read stuff anymore. Thankfully you can still select text so it is visible :)


There is too much truth in that, now it's entirely gone, lolz.

Thank you. :)

This is good Gilly

they chamged the colors... i like new one. Good old black and purple

Well maybe they should put the rehab back in. I still go back on the old website to look at the dear Alf pages.

I agree, Dear Alf was awesome. Is it true that the person who used to respond to all that fan-mail died? If so, that's really tragic. I hope they could at least someone nearly as awesome to replace him.

http://www.oddworld.com/?p=77 Yay for non-removed hidden-ish pages!

Nice. How did you find that?

A guy named Alf, who was a big fan of Oddworld died. However, he was not the Alf who answered the questions.

did you just make that up?

You're not seriously asking that? Of course he fucking didn't.

I am, I have no fucking clue what goes on in the world. Haven't you noticed that since I never post in the political threads. I know nothing about world matters, I just live in my own little fairyland.

I dunno I will have to check again. But in the old site I do believe there was a job page at some point.

Didn't you see what I just wrote paramiteabe???

i myself think its great.

So that's why you're a little cuckoo in the head.

OANST you don't mean recently do you? Because there was an Alf who used Oddworld chat who would greet me..

Yeah I did I was just responding to Xavier's question. However in regards to OWI having their team doesn't mean anything. As a matter of fact didn't OWI close its in house production studio and now OWI is basically Lorne Lanning and Sherry holding the rights to the name Oddworld and outsourcing their business model to other companies who will do all the work in terms of production, leaving Lorne with peer creativity?

I don't really know, but I would like to see something creative. Unfortunately video games take a long time to make. Oddboxx is good and all but.....eh I'm just a needy bastard.

Is that the impression you get from me Dynamithix? What made you think that?

The reason why he might be a little cuckoo in the head is coz he's an artist, they all are!

Are new oddworld games announced anywhere? Even if it's a hint gilray has given somewhere? I was expecting some new concepts on the Oddworld.com site too Ziggy
