Where did he get "Max the" from, then?

MeechMunchie 04-24-2013 12:09 PM

Max was the fifth Quintology hero. It's confirmed.

MeechMunchie 04-24-2013 02:23 PM

He was the fourth.

Jbot123 04-24-2013 02:55 PM

Wil is the fourth and forgotten chipmunk, whose spotlight was stolen by Alvin, Simon, and Theodore. He has an empire of gingerbread people and is plotting to take over the world TL;DR: Wil is Wil's name

Bullet Magnet 04-24-2013 03:29 PM

Wil's not a chipmunk, he's a vegan.

I was just looking at the recruitment page at JAW and noticed that they're primarily related to Unity 3D. Since when have JAW used Unity for anything?

Xavier 05-02-2013 11:25 PM

Well it's most likely for one of their upcoming projects. Any idea what Unity 3D is used for?

It's one of the more popular 'public' game engines.

Varrok 05-03-2013 12:49 AM

Didn't they switch the engine used in NnT to Unity?

Manco 05-03-2013 01:07 AM

Some of the devs have tweeted about using Unity, but I don’t recall an announcement saying they were dropping Bitsquid.

Nate 05-03-2013 01:11 AM

They might be working on multiple titles. And possibly not even Oddworld titles (based on the description of the Designer listing).

Jbot123 05-03-2013 03:05 AM

Non-Oddworld titles? THEY HAVE BETRAYED US.

Hey does anyone think the meeches was a scraped idea or was it just for show in AO

MeechMunchie 05-09-2013 09:49 AM

Meeches were originally going to appear in Abe's Oddysee. They got cut for various reasons, then added back in as an extinct species.

Connell 06-16-2013 08:02 AM

I've just noticed on my PS1 copy of Abe's Oddysee that the Monsaic Lines level is listed as 'Monaic Awakened' on my save. Is this unusual or is it the true name of the level, and I have never realised?

MeechMunchie 06-16-2013 08:37 AM

Hey, what does "Monsaic" mean? Could Lorne not spell "Monastic"?

Yes, it has always been Awakened, on mine at least.

Connell 06-17-2013 02:50 PM

Also, is there a working invincibility cheat that can be inputted on a controller for Oddysee on the PS1?

Nepsotic 06-17-2013 03:37 PM

No, it's in all the cheat guides but has never worked.

Or for that matter, why it is monsaic "lines". The only line in sight is the two-dimensional surface upon which you walk upon in the game.

MeechMunchie 06-17-2013 04:17 PM

I always thought it was supposed to be like ley lines. Channels of spiritual energy and whatnot.

Nate 06-17-2013 04:37 PM

Also, it's where the Mudokon queens used to go to mate with the drones. Because of the lay lines.

Manco 06-19-2013 01:42 PM

A comment on OWI’s Facebook page got me wondering:

What happened to Sherry McKenna?

Nepsotic 06-19-2013 01:55 PM

Isn't she still knockin' about?

Jordan 06-19-2013 02:48 PM

I assumed she did stuff behind the scenes while Lorne acted as a spokesperson. Unless she's working on her own/a different project or something.

Jbot123 06-19-2013 03:18 PM

Yeah, I kind of forgot about her. Is she still part of Oddworld?

This, as far as I know.

Lorne mentioned her in one of his recent interviews, so she's definitely still around.

Wil 06-20-2013 12:55 AM

Sherry is CEO. We talk to her all the time.

MeechMunchie 06-20-2013 09:50 AM

Suddenly I had this weird image of Sherry as a cackling overlady, sending out Lorne as her harbinger.

Swiftly followed by an image of her as Wicked Witch of the West sending out an army of Lorne-faced flying monkeys.

My brain is weird.
