Just a dream of an idea....

No laughing, its a dream hahahaha!

If I had the money and investments, and with Oddworld Inhabitants permissions .ect........ I could make cheap 'Oddworld Snacks'

Ever seen those 10p Space Raider Crisps, or those 30p Panda Pop Drinks?
Why could I not make something VERY similar, but have a different label - which has a typical Oddworld Layout.

Paramite Pies 30p crisps - shaped like paramites with a taste of cheese.
Scrab Cakes 30p Crisps - shaped like Scrabs with a taste of tomato ketchup.
SoulStorm Brew 50p bottle drinks - green in colour with a taste of lemonade.

Its that simple, and can be made easily, with a small profit.
But I would need permissions from OWI first, to make a Food Product which advertises a game from 1997-1998 hahahaha.... bit out of date nearly by 10 years hahahaha


But still..... what do you think, as silly as it sounds?

Sounds like you can make profit from it and it would help support OddWolrd greatly.

But don't ask me. I haven't been in an actual polite society since I was banned from my clan.

as much as i would like to see this happen, i can tell you it'd have no chance. No professional company is going to want to market it, and unless you had a massive advertising budget to create brand awareness u've got no chance. Better to invest your money into creating a TV show about Oddworld which I'm sure even non-oddworld gamers would like.

Sick dream u had tho

It might be fun to serve that kind of stuff on a themed party or something, but making it commercial is not going to work. It's a very fun idea though .

One time, some company made a normal Zebra Cake look like something out of a game, and they made it look believable. I think it would be awesome for someone to go get an "Aunt Millies Pie" with a big Paramite Pie logo on the front. And at the bar, someone would ask for a SoulStorm Brew with the same shape as the game? Classic. I am all for that, I think Abe and Munch would have their hands full though. lol

Every time I see a jar of caviar I always think of Gabbiar, which sounds tempting except it's high in sodium. Anyone else compare foods with Oddworld tasty treats?

Hey Millwall! You might just be Grinder Farms material. Sounds like your tough competition..hmm....
