We don’t know what will be in the first Oddworld feature film, but what you’ve been talking about is just a short film that OWI put together with material from Abe’s Exoddus connected together with a field report from a Mudokon reporter working for F.U.D. T.V. The basic premise is that the FMVs from Abe’s Exoddus are actually videos that Abe sent to the F.U.D. Network to expose the use of Mudokon bones in SoulStorm Brew, which was hitherto not public knowledge.
It was given a localized theatrical release (just in San Luis Obispo, was it?) which qualified it for Academy Award nomination. It didn’t win, but it was the first video game to be nominated.
