Hi everyone...I'm new here!
I apologize for my poor english but I'm italian...so try to understand what I write!

I've a little question: someone knows about Slig's screen-mates?
I mean animations that move on your screen...
I really like Sligs, they make me laugh 'cause whitout their pants they looks so pathetic and helpless!

I know what you mean by screen mates. As far as I'm aware, there are no screen mates of any Oddworld creature or character. But there are little animations that people could share with you. I would guess someone could be able to make a screen mate with one of them.

i don't know, but from what they've said, it seems to be something a bit like a tamagotchi on a pc.

Sort of - a screen mate is a tiny character than moves about the screen. You can usually interact with it in a small way, but leave them alone and they do funny things. There are no famous screen-mates that I know of, so I can't give an example. Try thinking of a simple Dogz or Catz with less interaction and stuff.

i dunno what the hell he is talking about, why would anyone want a slig screen mate. It sounds kinda cool but i dont think we will see any soon.

Sligs aro so funny!
Think about a Slig that scream "help" on your screen...ehehehehe

Ok I'm stupid...

And...about the question "What's under a Slig's mask"...in my version of Abe Exoddus (maybe the italian version could have some differences), looks like the Sligs that are sleeping in their "holes" have no mask!
I've looked careful and when they awake and try to reach a pair of pants, they have no mask!
They looks "normally" with little red eyes and green skin!

I can remember mention around about the time of the Game Developers Conference in February (or maybe it was GameStock) that we would see a picture of a Slig without a Mask... but that never seemed to eventuate.

Abe Babe...
