After Munches Oddysee....

[Elum]

I was just thinking...

After we are hit with the Munches Oddysee rush, then whats gonna happen? Will it be years before we hear anything about Munches Exodduss...and Squeek, etc.? What do you think?

I would say OI starts on Munches Exoddus ASAP. But I wouldn't blame them if they took a long break.

Personally, I can't wait to see what Squeek looks like!

[Lantra]

oi has already started on munch's exoduss and it will come out about a year after mo. after that there will probably be a bit of a lull but mabye not. i know oi was not pleased with how long it took to make mo so mabye they will try and shorten the lenght with squeek.

like you elum i cant wait to see squeek.

[oddguy 999]

The reson it has taken so long to make MO is because they had to change everything...

...they changed to 3D
...they changed to the Xbox
...they had to redo a lot of disignning
...they had to keep with the times

Which dont sound like much... but thats everything when it comes to computer games!!!


The piont is that for the rest of there games they should not have to change much so it will be a lot quicker... hopefully.

[Elum]

Thats true. For Munches Oddysee, they had to make every single thing over from scratch. Nothing from the other games was usable..because it was all in 2-d.

Lantra is correct, Oddworld have already started on Munch's Exoddus. I did read that in an interview somewhere I am sure. But the people that do all the creature design (production artists), as we speak they would be designing the new characters for Munch's Exoddus and beyond... other people would be working on laying out the levels, etc.

A game design company has many different components involved with it... and while one group of people are currently working on the current game, all the people who have done what they need to do in the current game, move onto the next project and so on.

cter wil be tis game kold

hand of odd

[MrBoj]

just give OWI time and they will produce great games. Hand of Odd is a great idea, yet it will take time, especially with ME, as well as MO in the works now.

[Sydney]

I would say Munch's Exoddus would come out in around the same amount of time it took for Abe's Exoddus to come out after Abe's Oddysee.

Either way, Munch sounds like it will be a big game with a lot of replay value. We'll remain entertained until the release of Munch's Exoddus.

[ODDBODD]

DUN WORRY ABOUD IT, like the Sydman said. MO is a big game. think about all the playing time and discussion we will have on the game. Before you know it ME will be out and we will start a whole new saga!! SO SHUDDUPAYAFACE

[Capri Ream]

I only have one question:Who's Squeek?

[Oddsville]

Squeek is susposed to be the next character after the Munch saga, what he looks like and what kinda creature he will be knowone knows except OWI.

[Zoolag]

We cud have speculations 2 wot Squeek actually is. I personally think he will b either a Rat type thing, a Fuzzle or a really, really big furry thing. Where the name makes u think..."Hey, Squeek it must b really small and relativly weak" but wen u c it its massive and strong. Also how r they gonna introduce all the other characters...after Munch it will seem a bit tedious 2 introduce another character the same way. I think they shud meet Squeek in the middle of the game this will give it more imagination and make it more interesting 2 the player.

[iliodd]

I've said it before and I'll say it again: Squeek is a Slig. And if he's not, he should be. I had a bunch of reasons, but I forget 'em.

I really want Hand of Odd to come out due to the cool building command system it is going to have. Where you actually talk and tell your men what to do instead of clicking on them and clicking a command.

Squeek is soooo not a Slig. If it was then they would have to scrap "Slig Storm" which sounds like a real good game, for those who dont know about "Slig Storm" it is about a Albino Slig who gets shunned due to the way he looks. This game was primarily the next one after AO and AE but got scrapped. But the drawings and sketches are still about so the game still may pop up sometime in the future. Oh and i like Sligs to, especially the news caster...the BB Sligs look abit stupid but they are kool in there own way, i personally like it when Abe throws a Slig out of the window and the Sligs below just laugh as he hits the ground and splatters every where.

[globe90]

I'm sticking to my theory that Squeek will be a Slurg. I mean, step on a Slurg, whaddya get... "SQUEEK! Oh look, time to run the Fleech gauntlet again."
The Almighty Raisin will endow our promising young Slurg with phenomenal and lethal powers, such as the ability to crawl around next to a herd of Fleeches and jump under some poor Mudokon's foot.
