Where can I find some Hand of Odd info?
 
I remember a game called Hand of Odd that was suppose to be a RTS Oddworld game or something around there. I'm gonna try to make the game, in 2D of course I have yet to learn how to program 3D stuff. If anyone could point me towards information about the game, that would be awesome.
Sadly I'm gonna have to create my own sprites... ew. I'm no artist. We'll see how it looks in time.

The Hand of Odd would have used all the ecosystem-emulating and GameSpeak-and-Status features of Munch’s Oddysee’s A.L.I.V.E. 2 game engine to make something akin to a real-time strategy game, only played using a character giving commands in person rather that a top-down interface like in a god game. In case you didn’t notice, all the ecosystem-emulating, GameSpeak-and-Status features were not present in the final version of MO because of various time and technical restraints. Hand of Odd could not possibly have come from it as they’d wanted.
Wow. I searched the forum for hand of odd and every thread with the word 'of' in it came up:P

Hope thins helps:D

Do you understand the difference between "no" and "know"? Sorry, but this is really bugging me. You have a properly functional keyboard in front of you, I assume you have two hands, so surely it wouldn't kill you to use the shift key, the "k", "w" and the "y" and "o" keys ("you", not "u" - this is an internet forum, not a YouTube comments page). Of course, I'm just assuming that this is laziness. If you have a real problem, I apologise, but I think I can be sure that it is the former.

Seeing as you understood what he meant, then his language is functional and communicates his ideas, which is it's point. So, why rant?

Because the English language has a certain natural flow when it is used correctly that makes reading easier so that you don't even have to think to read. However, when you need to activate your brain to decipher a post, you spend more time thinking about the language of the post than its point.

And that is the last word. Back on topic.
