I would suggest making something that is your own idea, but what do I know?

I do quite enjoy making my own games. I have a nice amount of projects I'm working on. My most serious one being Divine Space. A simple shoot-em up game similar to Ikaruga, but with its own unique twists. My gaming team of myself and two close friends have been programming it for the past two months now.

How many finished oddworld fangames do you know of though? Heaps of people here have started making games but very few of them get finished. Making games does take time, and while I agree that it'd be nice to have something new from OWI, you're not comparing apples with apples.

Very true. I had been working on a side-scrolling platform/shooter Slig game a year ago. Five months of work. Five months. Due to my own lack of foresight my processor melted. Melted into goo. I lost all that work. I still have my hard drives, but have no idea how to go about accessing them on my new computer. So now I'm making a Hand of Odd game using Adobe Flash. Even if it doesn't work out well I'll learn a lot about Actionscript 3.0 so it looks like a win-win situation in my book.
