Fan Competition
 
Oddworld Inhabitants has set up a competition to win a free download of the Oddboxx.

http://www.oddworld.com/?p=286

:

Heya Chumps!
We are planning on giving away a few codes for the Oddboxx compilation that will be released via Digital outlets soon!

All you have to do is create the funniest photoshop where Abe, Munch or Stranger are put in an image from the current day’s news and post it on our Facebook wall. The funniest one wins a download code for the game when it comes out.

We have included some base images in our Facebook’s photo albums to help you get started but of course you can use any other picture of Abe, Munch or Stranger you find on the net too.

EDIT: Contest is over, the winner was none other than our own LIJI with this entry:

I've seen some of the submissions on that wall, shouldn't be too difficult to top what's already on there.

MeechMunchie 12-17-2010 05:56 AM

I suggest PSing Abe into the British student riots, campaigning for better Mudokon working conditions.

I did the Oprah one. That's all I really have to say, unless someone else has a better idea?

MeechMunchie 12-17-2010 06:05 AM

That's... terrifying.

Jordan 12-17-2010 07:46 AM

That's actually hilarious.

Manco 12-17-2010 08:07 AM

I was going to do some amalgamation of Julian Assange and Abe, but I'll be damned if I could find a decent picture on any news sites.

STM 12-17-2010 11:39 AM

Thanks for posting this...but I don't have photoshop =(

Manco 12-17-2010 11:56 AM

I don't think you HAVE to use Photoshop, you can use Gimp or Paint.net or something. The important bit is that it's funny.

STM 12-17-2010 12:05 PM

Oh, coolio.

The political side of AO.

Damn the M.O.M. logo is hard to replicate.

Xavier 12-18-2010 11:15 AM

This one is actually really good.

That will probably win. God knows that Lorne is probably rubbing his ovaries just thinking about Julian Assange.

Thank you for that disturbing comment.

It may be too late to tell you you misspelled "information" :p
I was tempted to enter this competition, but I don't actually need the Oddboxx.

Woops I'll try and repost it.

I know it's not exactly current anymore, but someone needs to do a photoshop of 33 mining mudokons greeting Abe as he exits a capsule that's been lowered into a dark cramped room in Necrum Mines.. It would win the competition :D

When does the competition end?

Sekto Springs 12-18-2010 06:44 PM

Nice work on the shadows of the grate there.

Wil 12-19-2010 06:13 AM

It's hard to see what the news story is supposed to be on many of the entries posted on Facebook.

Julian Assange is one of the more popular choices of subject material, so that alone won'tt narrow entrants down to a single winner.

brechtos 12-19-2010 06:43 AM

Here's my entry.
Rules where a bit vague on the news thing, but just wanted to do something that was somewhat fun and different:p
I know it's not perfect and there are some weird things going on but I'm fairly happy with it.

"Fleeches: What drives them?" is making me laugh way too hard.

AvengingGibbons 12-19-2010 12:36 PM

nice work LIJI :).. I'd try doing one myself, but I wouldn't be happy with it being rushed.. I'd have to spend weeks on it until I was happy

Manco 12-20-2010 02:00 PM

Seriously? Nicely done!

AvengingGibbons 12-20-2010 02:20 PM

LIJI YOU OWE ME :P What did I say? Didn't I say it would win! :)

LIJI 12-20-2010 02:25 PM

Yes I do! XD
Thanks a lot for the idea, it's brilliant! :D
