Right now they're definately creating TAS and in their spare time might be trying to find funding and partners for CS or the Oddworld movie.

STM 06-17-2010 10:35 AM

Says Nate hopefully.

moxco 06-17-2010 02:26 PM

SO who exactly is 'The Native' is he one of those three or four people. And is Matt Lee still working for them?

Wil 06-17-2010 03:03 PM

Yes and no idea.

moxco 06-17-2010 04:43 PM

The answer will probably be no, but; is there a list of current employees anywhere?

Xavier 06-17-2010 10:00 PM

No

moxco 06-17-2010 10:53 PM

Can we make an educated guess on who they may be. Lorne, Sherry, Matt Lee...

And wasn't CS due to be released last year. Can we make an educated guess on how much longer that will take?

you are forgetting The Native :p

Taco 06-18-2010 12:51 AM

Well I'm glad The Native is showing some signs of life at OddMobb by posting here. I really hope that the Oddbox and new website come online before june ends.

moxco 06-18-2010 02:08 AM

Any guesses on who the native might be? Also who was Alf? Also does OWI email Alcar before creating an account so he can give them 'OddWorld Inhabitant' status?

This is Alf

STM 06-19-2010 02:31 AM

I don't think the Native is Lorne Lanning or Sherry because they're probably too busy right?

Nate 06-19-2010 04:47 PM

I think that this is a meaningless line of speculation. The Native is someone at Oddmobb who chooses to occassionally update us on what's going on. Who actually types the words is unimportant.

Plus, I quite like the mystique of not knowing.

STM 06-20-2010 03:07 AM

I second that, it's pretty cool that there showing an interest but not knowing is the fun of it!

Fickle, you are.

Does anyone know what the graffiti on this bilboard says?

Looks like "Sligs rockz" from what I can tell.

MeechMunchie 06-25-2010 10:39 AM

I always thought they were just symbols, maybe some kind of developer joke. Looks like

ROrRG
to me.

MeechMunchie 06-25-2010 11:40 AM

Oh yeah. Fair 'nuff.

Holy Sock 06-25-2010 12:10 PM

Very strange way to write an "S". But then again, it IS graffiti....

Taco 06-29-2010 06:07 AM

Does anyone else think the town of Megaton (Fallout 3) looks a lot like the Slig Barracks in AE? The pipes sticking up everywhere and all the structures made out of scraps definately remind me of the slig barracks.

All it needs is green light theme

I think it's because the Slig Barracks is heavily industrialised that it looks slightly similar to Megaton.

In Fallout 3 it's set in a post-apocalyptic wasteland where some survivors built Megaton out of whatever they could find, unlike the Slig Barracks.

Hi everyone, I have just seen a Munch's Oddysee's walkthrough and I have a question about the last level, Vikker Suites: after the gate where the shaman turns Scrubs into Mudarchers there is a room with some Vikkers and the Mudarchers must kill them. In that room there are some workbenchs and some strange creatures on them. What are those creatures? They look like some Elums or Meeches but I am not sure. Anyone knows?

Wil 06-30-2010 04:29 AM

They're Elums.

They're Elums.

Thanx Max, what's up? :)

Now I have a little request, can anyone post the text of Abe and Munch's conversation in the last video (good ending)?

Holy Sock 07-02-2010 08:43 AM

A story-related question. I was always curious as to who ran SoulStorm Mining Co in AE?

Mollock probably ran it along with RF and the brewery, but after he disappeared, RF shutdown and the brewmaster took over the brewery. So who was running the mining company?

abe is now! 07-02-2010 09:57 AM

Ok, now question (forget my previous one XD): what do Flying Sligs say when they kill Abe? Forgive me but I really can't understand it...

'Gotcha' as in 'Got You'. (Actually that might be Greeters...)

Holy Sock 07-02-2010 10:44 AM

Greeters emulate the GameSpeak of Sligs.

He is right, greeters say what sligs say. Anyway thanks.

In reagrds to the Shrink, someone on Youtube stated that:

This is a unused boss that Oddworld Inhabitants originally intended on having you fight in between Zulags 3 and 4. It was removed before the final release, however, because it was deemed too "gruesome and obscene" for the general audience, which they assumed would be younger children. You can see it's spidery form stalking you if you look closely into the purple mist that surrounds the background of zulag 3.

Is this true?

Josh 07-05-2010 07:47 AM

No. It's a massive ball on a stick that re-programs Muds so the work better. Or some shit like that. But it was never to be a boss.

MeechMunchie 07-05-2010 08:02 AM

It's just some crazy computer psychiatrist. A few of them look after Sam.

STM 07-05-2010 09:00 AM

Some of the maren't actually evil either! Like the guardian angel

Josh 07-05-2010 09:14 AM

That thing that was about to cut up Abe in the ad? Yeah, he just wanted a hug.

Sekto Springs 07-05-2010 11:39 AM

I don't think there's any canonical explanation as to why that particular Shrink was telling Abe to escape. I'm pretty sure that was made purely for advertisement purposes.

It would be an interesting addition to the story arc if the installed Mudokon personality was so good that the Shrink began to have delusions of humanity, and this is why he chose to help out Abe.

abe is now! 07-05-2010 11:48 PM

Hey there, I have a question: I completed Abe's Exoddus saving all the mudokons many times, but I've never understood why Abe says (in the video, good ending) that there are other friends to rescue (and there are some mudokons in a cell). Who is Abe referring to?

MeechMunchie 07-05-2010 11:50 PM

There are other companies that still use Mudokon slaves. Abe is explaining that they have to save the entire Mudokon race (MO is proof of that).

abe is now! 07-05-2010 11:57 PM

But in that cell Glukkons put Mudokons to use in SoulStorm Brewery..
