Steam is one of the primary platforms they will be releasing it on. Surely you know how big of a boner Lorne gets for DD platforms. Steam is the only one available given their history with EA.

What about Gamersgate?

What about Origin? ...

Oh man I couldn't type that with straight face.

It's is far too early to be thinking about which stores we'll be stocking in, beyond "Any we can".

Hopefully the engine has a Linux port too :(

What's confusing about that?

They're technically very similar OSes, it's weird if it's only compatible with one but not with the other one

The base OSes are similar, but I believe that the graphics APIs are quite different.

So speaking of New'N'Tasty, i'd assume the staff are on NDA's. But, is there any new info we can squeeze out of you Wil? Like, I dunno, hows progress going? Progressing eh what?

I think its the inverse, the OSX version must be using OpenGL which works on Linux, but system api's for opening files/creating timers and things might be different.

Found here.

I think that pretty much answers it.

Yes, progress is indeed being made.

Phew!

Yes, but what kind of progress?

This kind.

Oh fuck, I was wrong. 'n'


...what's with the turtles?

Just only to show you how wrong you were.

Well there is still the BUY list in this very forum to report sales on oddworld games...

Where the shit's his nob?

Behind his leg? At the shop? In a special bag?

In a place you didn't expect it to be? In a hole? Somewhere near you? All of the above?

It's up my arse.

Aaaaaand that's another one. What is it about this place?

Well, actually...

(TerribleJokeTurnedAwful)

Please get back on topic.

*nods*


Going back a few conversations to what SoloStark was saying about how the "orange haze" seemed to be more present all over the sections of Rupture Farms that we've seen... what take to people have on that? Better with the Zulag colour playing into the environment all-round or just a bit overbearing? I'm rather curious as no-one took note of it, but it's an interesting idea: is more metal needed or does the fog work fine?

Although... birds. Haha, an idea has come to mind. Remember the Abe Portal in Monsaic Lines?
Well, here's a thought. Considering how much the birds seem to just be part of the atmosphere, blissfully tweeting away until you move past too loudly, what do people think about having some groups of birds in certain areas coming together to make Abe Portals? (just to perhaps make them a little more distinct)
Not so much a case of finding heaps of birds together, but perhaps something to give the Abe Portals a distinguishable difference aside from just rotating.

I get where you're coming from, but we have to think of a way to not detract from the originality. Maybe have faint chant flicks of light/fire fly light trickling around empty areas where the portal would be. When chanting the birds can come out of those flickers of light or come to them and then fly away as they usually do when the portal closes.

But if I take the "screw the originality" approach, why not have the same fire fly lights hovering faintly around, but when chanting, reality rips open to a white or negative coloured hole where the muds escape. As this happens the background expands in the area of the portal is, with maybe small, faint heat waves protruding outwards slightly.


Also, @JAW devs, more screenshots pretty plz? :P

i'll bake some hyper muffins for you :>

Nope!

We're going pretty much quiet on New 'n' Tasty until a lot closer to completion.

You can tell us. Our powers keep you alive.

He has a point.

Exclusive screenshots for the Oddworld Forums??? :3

Go oooon!

Y'all don't know shit about reverse psychology.

We do. We just don't really want them. Don't post them

Ever. In fact, don't even release the game. Stop working on it. Now.

I always hated Oddworld. A HD remake would be a shit idea.

Fuck that little blue bastard.

Wil... you know what I can do for you...
