That's a point, how come there were different types? Both can zap Abe, not sure if the spherical ones can produce motion sensors, maybe it was because of sprites or file sizes I don't know. But ones that follow you sounds like a cool idea
|
That just leads to the question of why they ever stop following you. We could make all sorts of in-universe explanations, but which of those could we communicate clearly to a player who has little idea of what's going on.
|
Think I remember either Alf or Abe telling me that they work/float because of all the little critters stuffed inside, but knowing Alf it is possibly one of his humorous jokes

Wil, in Abe HD, is Abe gonna scratch his butt like he doees in MO?
|
So many good questions! Come on, Wil. We need to know this shit!

I'd be dissapointed to see in Abe HD Abe scratching his butt in the same way he does in MO. He should learn how to do it most efficiently throughout the whole game: at the very beginning he's a newbie scratcher and at the end he will do that even with his hands tied behind his back

As far out as this sounds (and probably a total waste of money) I think one other major thing stands out that no one has addressed.
Did anyone play that Abe's Odyssey demo on the "DEMO 1" disk for Playstation? Well, before Abe HD's release, I would love to play a remastered version of that Demo, it was a very significant and powerful release and heck, your probably doing a demo for it anyway, and I believe using that as a template would be great. Here is a video to refresh your memories: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=u9sDS1pEa94 and Part 2: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=w0_e1...feature=relmfu However, neither of these videos show what happens if you don't rescue all the mudokons the demo continues to the stockyards with a VERY nice surprise waiting in the 3rd screen in stockyards. PS. check out the subliminal differences between this alpha release and the final game. |
Agreed.
|
I would like a Paramite and a Scrab to appear in the same screen. It can be different cages in the stockyards or whatever, but it would be nice.
|
I think it would be fun if a Paramite or a Scrab could be harmed by bullets and the industrial characters are possible to eat.
|
I think one of the most important things to ask is will the controls remain the same as the original? I dont want to have to get used to new settings!
|
Dont forget though that it will be a new engine with new game mechanics correct me if i'm wrong) probably, so it will be likely that the controls will be slightly different.
|
It's a new game engine, but the game mechanics are very nearly identical. On the one hand, we need to offer the same controller setup, or as near as we can. On the other hand, if we don't put jump on the X button, we'll have failed as modern game developers.
|
Add classic and customisable controls...
|
I want a button that makes Abe scratch his ass.
|
Bring it to Xbox 360 and make it Kinect compatible so you can actually scratch Abe's ass yourself. Make a minigame out of it.
|
Hell, let's make it the game in its entirity!
|
I'm sure it could work as an iOS game. All you see on the screen is Abe's arse and you can scratch it as much as you like while he squirms with delight.

Not as far as I'm aware. I don't even know how far away we are from implementing controls.

No, no, no, no, no,
Ok, well, maybe one for Get Freaky, but that's really pushing it. |
Get Freaky was terrible in both concept, and execution. Not to mention the song itself being absolutely awful.
|
Use Yur Imagination wasn't that great either.
|
If by "wasn't that great" you mean that the people who made it should have been beaten then I agree.
|
Baring in mind that was back in the 90s. The 90s, not a great decade for music. Except rap...and techno...
|
Will there be an achievement for possessing the very first Slig?
