Go on Oddworld.com/soulstorm now!

i'm pretty sure the voices in the audio file are the Weirdos
|
Clearly some morse code in the audio as well. :)
And some code in the page :

I'm currently out of the house with rubbish internet so I won't be able to dig in until later, but it looks like there's lots to do! Get stuck in guys ;) |
The ?? in the first set of numbers is 15, if we are meant to find it's value.
|
Oh my...
Is Abe in the background now moving? |
He is!! And every now and then he pulls a shocked looking face
|
Might be an idea to jump on the Twitter conversation and direct any potentially interested people over here? I'd do it but I can barely manage to get on here haha. This might grab waaay more people's attention so it'd be good to have all the efforts centralized here.
|
Ok i've solved the number sequence:
16 _ 37 _ 58 _ 89 _ 145 _ 42 _ *20* _ 4 |_________________<_________________| --> |
I think that GIF represents everyone in this moment. Let's see if I can help somehow for real this time.

The number sequence is determined by taking the sums of the squares of the digits of the previous terms, hence the ?? after 145_ is 20 :)
Edit: The full sequence is 2, 4, 16, 37, 58, 89, 145, 42, 20, 4, 16, 37, 58, 89, 145, 42, 20, 4 and loops indefinitely. I believe the formula is known as A000216. |

Nicely done :D |
Yes thats correct haha
|
Wow, I don't think I'd ever have got anything like that. Looks like they're really stepping up the game this time round. Bet they're still gobsmacked that you guys got that so quickly haha. The question is what do we do with those solved numbers? I haven't listened to the audio or looked at the picture attached. Does it shed any light on any of those? Can't wait to get home.
|
In the first sequence of numbers, the last line is wrong: 21-13=8 not 7. Strange. :fuzconf:
|
I'm analyzing the audio rn. I can hear a mudokon-like voice, maybe more than one I can't tell, screaming something. All the words I figured out are "Hello?!" and "somebody?!...". I'll try to figure out more.
If I can I'll isolate the voice(s) and upload it here for you all. |
Managed to make a GIF of Abe himself.
 This is the video in full, but the quality took a hit I think. |
:
https://dodona.ugent.be/en/exercises/1191761379/ looks like the answer is 12 :

Damn! well at least i know the second sequence is correct

 The feels when you wasted your time making a GIF but they already did your job for you 😐 |
:
looks like all the horizontal black boxes should be flipped horizontally and have their colour inverted. |
Did some shifting around with that altered image, found 2 symbols:
EDIT: Just seen at the bottom of the previous post about flipping the black boxes. If it helps, I didn't flip the black box for what I uncovered, just moved it. Might help with the other black boxes. |
Hi guys. :)
|
Hi Alex, are you here to help? I hear some Mudokons are being mistreated.

Those facial animations look fantastic, hypetrain.exe is running.
Alex, care to share something with the rest of the class while you're visiting? |
