New Oddworld Games In Development
Game developer Just Add Water announced today that the Oddworld series, dormant since 2005, will be getting multiple new titles in the near future. Quoting:
"... for the past 12 months we have been working extremely closely with the fantastic people at Oddworld Inhabitants, from what started off as brief discussions in June 2009, to now working on multiple projects, across multiple platforms. Whilst we cannot go into specifics right now, we can tell you that over the coming weeks and months we will be announcing these exciting projects starring all of your favorite Oddworld characters."
hmmmmmm!!!!
Of course, it was using your ancestoral spirits to possess your own flatulence.
Hmmm.
If each mistake being made is a new one, then progress is being made.
It was mentioned before by the Oddworld Inhabitants team that if the re-released Abe games sold well there would be an Oddbox, with additionally Munch's Oddysee and Stranger's Wrath ported to Windows.
This sounds more like a reference to that, since there is no indication Squeek's Oddysee or other new Oddworld games are in development.
Amazing, isn't it, that in the years since Abe's Oddysee came out the phrase "Follow Me" has become a cultural phenomenon thanks to Twitter. Or am I making to much of a tenuous connection over two words?
It's ridiculous you get modded flamebait for pointing out the fact that exclusivity deals stink and it did indeed cost Oddworld alot of possible sales. Fanboys suck.
what started off as brief discussions in June 2009
Oddworld Inhabitants: "Hello"
Just Add Water: "Hello"
Oddworld Inhabitants: "Follow me"
Just Add Water: "Okay"
Oddworld Inhabitants: "Work!"
Just Add Water: *works*
