Abe's Odysee

i'll start playing this myself
lets see how shit i am

I've given up trying to find all 99 Mudokons. I'll just see if I can actually complete the game without cheating, since I never did that when I was younger.

i love the old oddworld games

alright just getting to grip with the controls

the intro was hilarious and awesome
game still looks really good IMO

so far 2 rescues and no casualties, well except a few scanner moments

The controls can be awkward, especially the running jump. You have a jump one space before the gap or you just fall through. I died about 30 times on the same little rescue sequence because of that.

so far i'm doing all the shit i did in the demo
i still remember this pretty well

i remember some appearing to be almost impossible to free
does whistling have a use or farting?

Whistling and farting come into it once you escape Rupture Farms and get into the temple.

well the first 4 were stupidly easy to rescue

but damn its annoying i can't get a group to do what i want at a time
i can only say hello and follow to one at a time for some dumbass reason

Yeah, I forgot that about the first game. Abe's Exodus is a lot easier. The secret areas are more telegraphed, you can command groups (I think), and there's even a quick save feature.

well check points are common

i accidentally killed number 5 by posessing a guy and leaving him netween me and the other guard

killing yourself seems to regenerate the dead workers so no quicksave is ok atm

lmao
accidentally found a hidden mudokon
i shot him while i was fooling around

Getting killed also regenerates the saved Mudokons as well. Which can be bloody annoying when you spend ages saving some and then die.

yeah i just noticed
i've rescued 12 (2 hidden)
but 13 and 14 have a guard inbetween :/
i'm guessing i lure him to the next screen and then drop a rock on him... fuck knows how though

Just walk into his screen and then quickly run back again. The switch for the rock is in shadow I think, so he won't see you. Some shadows have a bigger space, so you can be a step either side of the total darkness, and actually visible, but still not be seen.

oh right that works

but now i got a stupid mudokon running straight into a blade -_-
damn without quicksave this will be a pain

thats annoying have to redo thw last 4 rescuers
accidentally went to the stock yards
i thought the lift was the next zone

blatently more to this game then i thought

somehow i missed 14 mudokons o_O

fuck this shit is crazy

i somehow went into the background and jumped through one of the rescue portals
and now i've been teleported to a new area o_O

Those are just other secret areas. If it's the one I think it is, you have to outrun a Scrab 4 times while jumping. That's the bit I died on loads of times.

if you mean the weird ass thing thats a shadow and looks like its from lost planet or starship troopers

then yes

but i think i have to do 4 jumps both ways
so about 16 jumnps to rescue both mudokons >_>

oh fuck this i'll rescue the minimum
that room is jarring

this reminds me of the lost vikings in a really vague way

You need to rescue 50 out of 99 to get the good ending.

And you'll see those things clearly later on when you go through Scrabania And Paramonia.

man i suck at this game lol

i got stuck
theres two guards next to each other i drag one back to the previous screen and blow him up on a mine

the other one shoots me whatever i do
and i can't possess cause those weird ass machines are around

You just have to run past the remaining one really quick. Do it just as he turns away from you, so he'll have to turn around a couple times.

thanks for the tips

i keep finding secret areas and have no clue how to do them lol
or do have a clue and am just not good enough at the game yet to pull it off

not sxure how to deal with slogs
they can't be posessed can they?

No. You just have to outrun them.
