Oddworld Twice Ze Flavor level editor?
 
Well with Oddworld Twice Ze Flavor announced all we know is it is in the planning stages. But how bout something different... A level editor! If you pre-order the game you will get access to a level editor! You can edit your layouts, spawns, and etc. It might be a lot of work, but it might be a good idea!
Think about it, Nintendo made a "Mario maker". So why not a Oddworld maker.
Tell me your ideas below.

Level editor has already been suggested countless times. It would be amazing and would be a no brainier to utilities the Steam Workshop in the same way Portal 2 does. If it ever becomes a thing, I think both NnT and Exoddus should use them.

I can't express how dumb that is.

2004 called, they want their memes back.

BabbTheScrab 05-28-2015 04:43 PM

Well Okay... I'm just trying see if we can get some awareness. Sorry for the stupid question :(

Nate 05-28-2015 09:16 PM

He wasn't criticising the question. He was commenting on your use of the word 'will'.

Everyone else: Please don't scare the new guy off.

Shade667 05-29-2015 02:14 AM

Yeah, no one likes locked content behind pre-orders.

Trying desperately but his inability to search threads or just read the thread list is somewhat annoying... *twitch*.

Yeah well he ain’t gonna get any better if y’all are just dicks to him all the time. This happens with new members all the time, and people wonder why they all leave.

BabbTheScrab 05-29-2015 06:32 AM

Well I mean they get early access, Then few months later they get access for free or .99!

Crashpunk 05-29-2015 07:32 AM

I think it's safe to say if a level editor is going to be in Exoddus, It will be free and for everyone.

I don't see why they would restrict something so widely suggested. I can only imagine the outrage of selling the level editor.

Havoc 05-29-2015 01:23 PM

Meh, I can see the reasoning behind it honestly. Building a user friendly way to design entire levels is time consuming work to say the least. Then again, they do have the engine ready now. Either way I wouldn't mind paying for it, but yeah it would probably cause a shit storm.

Shade667 05-29-2015 08:42 PM

Are we talking like a Little big planet level editor or like steam workshop level.

Cuz this is gonna be a console game, and I wouldnt mind creating some tougher speedrunning levels in exxodus if I could.


Custom levels with custom leaderboards would be real cool. But again, that takes alot of time. If its too much work id be happy they just take the time to make the game as good as possible. Thisll be my first time ever touching exxodus.

Crashpunk 05-29-2015 10:36 PM

I can imagine it being a PC only thing.

Also I do realize this thread could be misleading, so i will say.

Level editor in Abe's Exoddus has NOT been announced. This is purely a speculation thread.

Early in NnT's development they made a blog on the website about why they chose not to make one for Nnt.

enchilado 05-30-2015 03:51 AM

Personally, I'm of the opinion that we should be able to just directly purchase the level editor and that the actual game nonsense should be the preorder bonus.

I vaguely remember that but what was the reason again? Too much work, too little time?

Shade667 05-30-2015 08:57 PM

I also cant remember. It was a while ago. Im not gonna go find the article for u guys cuz Ive got faster things to do.

Im of the opinion that the game itself should be the pre-order incentive. That 'Day One Guarantee'.

However I can understand it. Pre-orders are a way of ensuring sales and lots of pre-orders means early profit. A game that can make back its cost on the first day, and pre-order incentives help that.

Admittedly I thought it was a pretty clever joke.

Shade667 06-01-2015 02:12 AM

Thanks :D

Crashpunk 06-01-2015 04:45 AM

I will now make the argument it's hard to tell if someone is joking or not if it's only text I have to go on.

Ah whatever. Speedrunning is like a in-joke now with you shade. haha

Don't push it.

Nepsotic 07-06-2015 10:27 AM

Which is why new members always leave.

Bullet Magnet 07-06-2015 10:45 PM

New members don't leave. They're all still here. They get sent to the dungeons and turned into hellish cenobites by Gorman Disenza.
