*sigh*A simple search will provide .It's a pretty good film but I find the original short story much more evocative.

As far as I can tell, Lorne has written the script and OWI are doing the production design. Given the quality of the FMVs in the Oddworld games, they're probably going to have a part in storyboarding as well.I've read articles that differ over whether Lorne or John Williams will be the director.

Thanks. For what it's worth, I just asked my friend Max (who was at the keynote and interviewed Lorne afterwards) what his take on the issue was and he agreed that the game wasn't in production yet.

Congrats on producing a thread that finally prompted me to register for the idleforums. As an oddworld nut (and a mod at the official oddworld forums), I'll clarify a few details. Close. Lorne and Sherry came from an animation background making themepark rides. Fair enough. You'd be hard pressed to even find a fan of Oddworld that really liked Munch. Stranger was great though.In terms of movie vs game, this is a deal for the movie only. OWI are now a IP-producing company only. They're in discussions with third party developers to put the game together using their designs. I suspect that when he said that publishers had seen 'the game' he meant the designs and plans rather than any prototype.
