could it be possible that i am the only who noticed this?
 
if look closley on the moon on screen EIP03C05 u can see that abe's hand is already carved on it.
here is a screenshot.

MeechShrykull1029 09-06-2008 07:58 AM

I didn't notice this one, but there's another one on another screen. This is how it's supposed to be: It was there for a really long time.

abe619 09-06-2008 08:08 AM

but i thought lorn lanning said that it was carved by meteors the moment abe jumped to where the moon is.

Wil 09-06-2008 10:29 AM

No, he just denied that in Part 7 of Nate’s interview with him.

Screenshot from a secret passage in the 'Slog Goes Boom' area, a short distance before the 'Abe's Moon' cutscene.

Suddenly you wonder why Abe didn't notice it here; not quite as subtle as in Abe16's screenshot.

I'm always caught by the tiny, steadily flashing red light in the background, high up in the sky during the Return to Rupture Farms level. An early reference to Vykker's Labs, perhaps?

MeechShrykull1029 09-07-2008 05:40 PM

That's the screen I meant in my previous post.

abe619 09-07-2008 05:43 PM

u have that art of 'spot the mistakes'.

What screen would that be? E2P04C04? Could be anything.

I'm not sure I'd even notice a huge smiling face up on the moon if there's some dog right under me trying to eat me.

abe619 09-08-2008 02:33 AM

u mean that yellow abe face , which appears as a loading icon or in secrets areas?

Xavier 09-08-2008 04:08 AM

Try to say "you" instead of "u", it's only two more letters...

and no, I was talking about our own moon, you know, luna...

The Steam version has updated that.

lol , it's edited , the sprite looks a little wierd and vykkers labs is for arxryl's sprites.

OANST 09-08-2008 05:20 PM

I wrote a really snarky reply to that and then erased it. See, everyone. I can be nice. Even in GD. It is possible.

I think he means Return to Stockyards.

I got some screenshots to illustrate the "glowing lights" (which look very similar to the floor lights in RF) on two screens of the Stockyards Return level (you just need to look near Abe's eyes):

this looks shopped.

SNegrea 09-09-2008 07:50 AM

I've went through Stockyards again, but in the Stockyards Escape version, and there are no sign of glowing lights, at least not where they are in Stockyards Return.

Oddsville 09-12-2008 08:09 AM

I think the glowing lights are just stars flickering in the night.

I also noticed that the tree is shopped as well, and if it isn't, then damn, they made well animated 2d trees in AO.

Xavier 09-26-2008 08:20 AM

Sorry? What are you talking about?

Leto 09-27-2008 05:06 PM

joke not got, guys. nice.

skillyaslig 09-27-2008 06:04 PM

I think the tree is just a dead stick shoved in the ground. Hell, they have some weird-assed stuff in Oddworld...
Anyway, maybe Abe is just really short-sighted (I forget which is which) and didn't notice that space-ship fly by =P

Clakker Shooter 09-28-2008 04:46 AM

Near-sighted? And since when is a vykker pod a spaceship?

SLIG_ODD 10-02-2008 02:18 AM

I've just want to say: I've always noticed the paw print on the moon. I caught it before the lil vid. I guess he hasn't seen it because he's been working in Rupture Farms for a long ass time. Mind you, the moon was to the far side of him, out of his sight. He only noticed it when he was facing it and it was huge as hell. I mean, if you are running away from some place, at the same time, watching your ass so you don't blow up or get eatten or die, would you notice the moon has some kind of figure on it?

Xx_Abe_xX 10-02-2008 04:10 AM

Lol I guess not. Still, there are SOME safe spots between the beginning and end of the stockyards where he could take a breather and look at his surroundings, don't you think?

Nate 10-02-2008 04:21 AM

If you were a glukkon designing a security zone, would you put in safe spots?

Xx_Abe_xX 10-02-2008 04:26 AM

Yes I understand that, but, they were not prepared for when Abe was actually escaping. It's not like Abe walked up to them and said, "All right guys I'm gonna go try to escape now!". No. He just took off and plus, what about when he broke through their defenses? Like, if he killed a Slig and had a couple minutes to breathe? I'm not saying I'm right, I just saying that I don't think I'm too far off. I mean, it's not impossible for the Glukkons to have missed a spot or 2...

SLIG_ODD 10-02-2008 04:37 PM

Remember, It is a 2D game. Even when you do stand in a safe zone, you would want to keep going in one diraction. And +, it's just a game. Real life is way different.

Xx_Abe_xX 10-03-2008 04:06 AM

True, I'll give you that.

leocrow 10-05-2008 11:32 AM

what I find strange is that noone has noticed that in AO all the muds (and the moon) have FOUR fingers, while in AE they all have THREE! i wonder, did they do it so that it could sell in asian markets?
