The Article
If Oddworld is a stage, you've just entered the catwalk. It's in the hallowed, umm, halls of the Oddworld Universe that you'll find all the hardcore, nitty-gritty things that go into making Oddworld more than just an idea floating around the heads of a few dreamers out in California. So what do me have for you here? Take a look...
Universe
To coin a phrase, "You are here" (or should that be, "to steal a clich"...). Anyhoo, the point is that this very page is the portal to all things related to the Oddworld Universe. If you've got some type of question that can't be addressed anywhere else on www.oddworld.com, odds are you'll find the answer here.
Dear Alf
Oddworld's version of Tony Robbins is making his services available to the problem-stricken population of our little world. So if you've got a hilariously painful personal problem (i.e. "My girlfriend's arms get tangled up in my back hair when she hugs me...what should I do?!?"), then head over here immediately and email the Alf-ster!
Gallery
You don't have to be no art critic to see that Oddworld is filled with some of the most eye-massagingly beautiful landscapes and scenes to ever grace a video or computer game. This here gallery is going to be dedicated to highlighting some of the more breath taking pieces of art produced for various Oddworld games, and putting them into themed, "Exhibits." So put on your shiniest beret, start acting rudely to anyone even vaguely American, and come on in for spell!
Oddworld History
Oddworld is a huge and mysterious place, whose depths are only skimmed by Abe's Oddysee and Abe's Exoddus. There is much of this planet yet to be seen and a WHOLE bunch of as-yet-unseen creatures that will make Glukkons and Mudokons look as normal as Dan Quayle. To get a handle on this strange land and to learn a little about its past, you're going to want to spend some time reading through this.
Development
Making games isn't all fun and, ummm...games, ya know! A lot of talented people worked long and hard to make sure that, once you picked up the controller and started playing Oddysee or Exoddus, you couldn't stop. "Development" is where you'll find info on the process and the people that make Oddworldian fun a reality.
Playing the Odds
Oddworld is like our world in many ways. For example, its Inhabitants like to win free stuff just as much as we do. If you need proof, just head over to Playing the Odds...we've got contests galore and opportunities (whether you're of this world or not) to win lots of cool stuff.
