New 'n' Tasty -

Nope!

We're going pretty much quiet on New 'n' Tasty until a lot closer to completion.

I'm actually glad you guys are staying quiet about it.

To be honest I find that holding people in suspense is the best way to draw in attention. I mean, Half Life 3 or episode 3 has so many people waiting to get it, yet we know nothing about it because the devs at Valve are so quiet. And yet people still want it with no hints what so ever.

With that being said, what is this other thing you guys hinted at before new years/Christmas After Munch HD? Some, 1.5gb thing? any hints? :P

Either way, Merry Christmas to everyone in case I'm not on

I might know what that is, but I'm not really sure.

Oh hey, I am a fan. I've loved Oddworld since I was 10, joined the Oddworld Forums in 2000 and starting working at JAW only last year.

Crashpunk · #**366** 12-18-2012, 07:23 AM

Wil is the fan. He's the human embodiment of all Oddworld fans combined.

Varrok · #**367** 12-18-2012, 07:23 AM

He meant that you can't be both a fan and a developer, and you should deal with it.

EDIT: Damn Crashpunk!

Bullet Magnet · #**368** 12-18-2012, 07:30 AM

He's an ascended fanboy, and that makes him the enemy.

STM · #**369** 12-18-2012, 08:33 AM

MM and I can wrap ourselves up as Xmas presents...

I'll throw in Chris as a bonus. Because I'm such a good guy.

Crashpunk · #**372** 12-19-2012, 01:45 PM

We can wrap ourselves in that banner MM made for Wil.

STM · #**373** 12-19-2012, 01:47 PM

I didn't even see another page. Awesome.

Yes, it will happen.

Queen Skillya · #**374** 12-28-2012, 12:01 AM

The pre-alpha footage is really impressive. I'm loving the new game so far. I've been busy spreading the word about New 'n' Tasty as lots of fans are so busy in their day-to-day lives that they don't know about it yet.

I watched/listened to Lorne Lanning & Stewart Gilray in the Eurogamer Expo. It was most informative and I really enjoyed it.

No, it makes him a demi-god, so to speak. I know that talking to a GM in a MMORPG is sort of like talking to a god, with a freaky disembodied voice unless you are blessed to see his form too. This is that same concept. I'd watch out for lightning bolts, if I were you. You never know when he might burp up one!

Scrabaniac · #**375** 12-29-2012, 05:20 AM

Will you be using the original bird portals? I didnt like the pre alpha one :S

WolfensteinOdess · #**376** 12-29-2012, 06:26 AM

I really want to see New'n'tasty's scrabania !

I think it can be great !

Those were place holders.

From the recent Lorne N' Stewart AMA;
LorneLanning 3 points 8 days ago
"We are encouraging fans to send voice samples of characters they would like to do. If they are great, JAW would like to talk to you about characters to do. Oddworld has always done its own voices, and hopes to keep the tradition in the fan community. Some fans just happen to be famous actors... but that will be announced later. Is way cool when this happens."

From OddworldInc's Twitter;
@simonpegg So, how do we get in contact with you outside of the twitterverse? We'd like to ask you something.

So, Mr Pegg confirmed for voicing a Mudokon yeah? :P

My voice is so high pitched that anyone caught in the radius of the sound will instantly puncture their eardrums with nearest pointy object. Damn shame as I was wanting to send my voice in.

So your voice does to the ears what your posts do to the eyes?

Queen Skillya · #**381** 12-31-2012, 01:00 PM

We going to see any Slurg Sundae posters in New 'n' Tasty, Wil?

:

Yes. I suggest auto-enucleation to cure it.

OANST · #**382** 12-31-2012, 01:02 PM

Banning you could work too. I'm just sayin'.

AlexFili · #**385** 01-01-2013, 02:58 AM

That's a fantastic idea. I'm definitely up for recording my voice for a game! Every day I just get more and more excited for future Oddworld games.

Me too, that would be incredible! I have done a bit of voice acting, nothing professional yet unfortunately but I've voiced various projects for friends and won a runner-up prize from Aardman for my impression of Wallace from Wallace & Gromit!

Hopefully, fingers crossed, I might be meeting Marc Silk at some point through work (he voiced Johnny Bravo among others, amazing talent!)

Did the AMA say where to send any samples? I assume email attachments to JAW?

Connell · #**387** 01-01-2013, 08:44 AM

Will there be any alterations to the story taking into account what we know now... e.g Molluck's possible survival and bigger importance in the quintology as a whole or the inclusion of Alf as a worker in Rupture Farms?

Little nods to the future maybe, like someone mentioned slurg sundaes before, akin to the Rupture Farms barrels in Stranger but in the opposite direction time-wise.

Scrabaniac · #**388** 01-01-2013, 11:06 AM

I'd like to see more of rupturefarms, like mudokon cells, or the meat processing floors, packaging or even importation of mudokons, but its unlikely they will change anything like that.

DesertBuzzard · #**389** 01-01-2013, 11:34 AM

Well, they are changing some of the backgrounds, I think. Would be neat to see a background with mudokon sleeping pods hanging from the ceiling or a mudokon egg storage room as a nod to Munch or something. It is their intention to show more of Rupture Farms.

They said wait 'til late January, they'll announce it properly then.
