I think many casual oddworld fans will love an Abe HD remake. I can't believe the number of request I've seen for it when browsing on other sites/forums.

I know i would, even though AO and AE is already pretty impressive to this day. It would be awesome if they make new content (New levels and designs)

Yeah, a HD revamp would be lush. The 2.5 thing seems a bit pointless. Yeah the detail would be more nice but the games are beautiful as they are anyway. If we are planning on a 2.5 remake you can count me in on the project in a years time when i've learned how use 3D programs.

Someone told me it was a never release version of the game (I don't rememebr who.. Max?). I'm sure also the other two screenshots come from that version.

I imagine the state of the code for these old games is so bad they would have to make massive changes to rewrite the engine, so anyone who thinks its a case of changing a few sprites will be massively mistaken

E.g sprites use a byte for the width and height, this limits the max w/h to 255 which is too low, which means update format, update code, rebuild all resources and editors etc.

Those screens are 640*480, though. The sprites just seem to have a lot more colour.

So is there any chance that we will see the source code to the game? Are the developers willing to release it?

Woah, this is a nice catch - Is this a sort of Elum Spawner thing?

Edit:
Sorry, Nate, I thought it was one of the less obvious things :P

Because it was a stupid idea and they decided to replace it with the honey.

Jeez, can't you guys just bloody well search the forums for these answers?

I would really like to take a look at the old OWI computer's just to see some unreleased goodies. If these were going to be the game's graphics (I doubt it) and not just one-off promotions, that'd be AWESOME!
