I Hope so, that was quite scary looking in the trailer back in the day! Isn't today the weekly comparison and gif day? :P

Since day one, there are two areas they've absolutely no questions asked 110% nailed and improve upon - Paramonia and the temples! Scrabania also looks superior to the way it did in the old game.

Great work JAW! Now the temples might end up being my favorite locales!

Yeah, now I've got a similar layout to compare, it's easy to see how good these new assets are. I wonder how much of the difference in tone comes down to the simple resolution change - It's been observed by many that low-res graphics have a very crude, spooky quality.

But hey, Oddworld isn't a horror series. I've come to terms with that.

Me to! I'm itching for a gif. It's like a drug addiction. I'm starting to see crab cakes in my patisserie. They're hiding next to the salted caramel tarts :/ I swear.

I can't help but notice now that the mudo statues there have hump backs.

If you remained in that pose for at least couple hundred years, you'd have hump back too.

They were probably only like that for a couple of seconds but then the wind changed.

Shit. The turquoise actually is more spooky.

I think it's supposed to be dawn when Abe gets there, though, so moonlight wouldn't make much sense.

EDIT: #4t3hlulz



Not to toot my own horn, but I do like this palette more.

Anyone else think the paramites look small? In the original they seemed a bit bulkier and more fierce looking. What do you guys think when you see the latest tease?

I noticed they were smaller, yeah.

I'd imagine it's because in NnT they act even more like the pack animals they are supposed to be (hence the mad rush of them chasing Abe in the GDC trailer).

So I think that whilst they're smaller, there are more of them, or they're quicker or something like that.

Probably makes them differ from the Scrabs more

I think Abe's just a big bigger.

I mean it doesn't really look that small here.



as opposed to this.

Good point. They could also be adding younger and older paramites too, which would be amazingly awesome to show off the little ones near the entrance and the bigger ones as guards in the final paramite trail. Like in the picture you posted, that one seems much bigger in size to the latest tease one in that other area.

I think the size thing may partly be due to where the actual camera is pointing, in the screenshot of the Paramonia nests, the camera is very close to Abe, which may make the Paramite appear larger.

Long time lurker here. Got a quick question. Being that New n Tasty is releasing on the PS4 first, if I were to purchase the game on roommates PS4, would I be able to download it onto my PS3 when it's released for the PS3?

I believe it's PSN cross-platform, which would mean you could download it from the relevant PSN account.

Or whatever it's called these days.

e: SEN account.
