'Nuf said.

The Slig was the hero of Sligstorm, just as Stranger is the hero of Stranger's Wrath. However neither are quintology heroes.

Only confirmed quintology heroes are: Abe, Munch and Squeek. Also mentioned is a hero called Nod, who was supposed to be fourth in the quintology game series.

oh ok ^_^

but i still want sligstorm badly -__-
aww i guess only time will tell the truth if there will be a light of that game..

the story of the game is still there, we might see it coming out in an other way (comic, short film, ...)

Slig lover, I have a dream and a theory that Squeak may be a slig, but we would have to wait awhile to find out, and I'm never right, Squeak sounds like a Grubb name anyway.

I always imagined Squeek to be a fuzzle. But I don't think the gameplay would be the best if a fuzzle was chosen as one of the heroes plus I think OI have more imagination than that

.

I voted for adventure by the way.

oh sounds interessting...but i realy hope it will come out as a game (dosnt matther to me if it would come in the first place or later)

but having a slig,and being a cool albino slig as a hero would be soo cool,i mean,Sligs are soo awesome and i never get enough to see some more of them.

It soo fun when you can be one when possesing em,but sadly when played enough or they have allready done theyre duty,they go splat,wich makes me sad until you can posses another one -___-

so having a game with a slig hero,would mean playing a slig without splat ^_^
plus controlling it,talk and see even a gamespeak would be so awesome ^_^

I know there was in AE,it was soo cool to have a closeup on the slig and the other as well,but sadly there wasnt any gamespeak of the enemys in MO,you could only try guess what random insulting words they said,with no much help,like in AO or AE,there you could at least use the words:Look out or get em

I# think it would be nice to be a slig for a change.

2d kicks ass, but if you look to all of the unique things in oddworld, you just want to explore(like the 4d game theory of Oddish), and the simplest way of goaling forward to that is by first making a computer rts style game with patches to constantly upgrade to higher levels of gameplay.(or something)

have little mudokon camps, go explore with a bunch of elum riders,
protect areas with steefs, discover the entire oddworld.
(just a dream)

whats 4d?

(ten characters)

big bro boogie · #68 05-06-2005, 08:33 AM

That is the unknown part of gaming (i dont know), maybe its like smellable tv, only better. like feeling/smelling the air, while you are playing, something like that. (i hope)

Fourth Dimention. It's surpasses and more complex than the third dimentional world. 4D is size, lenght, width and depth of something which involves time,and the present. The real world that we are now is 4D.

That was hard to explain. I'm not sure how to tell you the exact meaning.

Well you get the picture.

Andy's Table Of Dimension Misnomer's:
xyz & time - mostly called 3D - actually 4D
xyz - always called 3D
xy & time - always called 2D - actually 3D
xy - always called 2D

Given that we normally only name something 2D or 3D based on it's distance dimensions, what does it mean to call a game 4D? Does that mean that time goes past much more than it normally does?
For a platform game this is not hard, mostly the game will wait for you to complete bits, if you leave the game unpaused in an empty area for days nothing changes. But a real-time strategy game? Time goes past for all players at once, leave it unpaused and your opponents will build armies and kill you.

Maybe an especially 4D rts game would be one in which as you play the particular mission or the entire campaign, the environment changes with day / night / seasons, non-player characters carry out daily routines, and the success of the campaign changes elsewhere as other players fight battles you are not involved in.

Really? When did he say that? I'm excited!

Oddish · #73 05-07-2005, 02:46 PM

Me too. It was an artcle, you'll find on Oddblog.

I thought we live in 5D. You know, XYZ+ Time+ Space.

OK, I'm not going there...

Heh, so much for exploring new medias... Haha.

If they go back to games then fine. As long as they aren't exclusive to the Xbox whatever its name is.

I have the shame of suddenly remembering that I did once try and come up with a concept for an Oddworld racing game. Munch could possess other characters' carts, and there was a playable Fleech with a driving lisence called Glossal. Man, what a great childhood that was.

Can any amateur programmers make this game online? I'd pay to see this.
