Limited Run Games Clip Offers Oddworld: Munch’s Oddysee Teaser

Limited Run Games is a fantastic company publishing company that offers limited time physical releases of oddball favourites. Speaking of odd, Oddworld: Munch’s Oddysee just received a “power”ful new teaser clip hinting at a physical release special for the 3D game.

For those unfamiliar with the platformer:

Players guide Mudokon champion Abe, and his aquatic Gabbit partner Munch, in Oddworld‘s third adventure, using special psychic powers, cool power-ups, and other special abilities to deliver payback as they reclaim the last gabbit eggs on Oddworld, which have been packaged in a can of gabbiar.

• Play as a team – players use Munch and Abe cooperatively to make their way through the trials of Oddworld. Leverage both characters’ unique strengths:
• Abe- Abe can climb and jump to reach new areas, and then run to escape from dangerous enemies. When all else fails, chant to take control of the enemy’s soul, and use their guns to clear a path to safety.
• Munch – Munch can swim around the new realms of Oddworld. When on the ground, zip along with a wheelchair power up. Need to move some yapping Slogs out of the way? Just use Munch’s nifty remote control head port to fire up the crane and drop those Sloggies in their pen.
• Special psychic powers – Munch and Abe’s psychic powers can extend their reach and get others to do the dirty work:
• As Abe – Let Abe’s chant roar to take possession of a gun-toting Big Bro Slig and clear almost anything out of the way. Abe can use spooce or spiritual power gained byharvesting SpooceShrubs to posses other creatures as well, but why think small?
• As Munch – If Abe can’t mesmerize someone into getting the job done, Munch can use his handy remote control head port to hijack nearby machines including cranes, and 50-caliber Anesthesia bots to tackle the really tough obstacles.
• Power-Ups – Every friendly character you can find becomes a fighting ally, Fuzzles, Mudokons…. Need to get somewhere quickly or get over a wall, like right now? Use Oddworld’s consumer power-ups like Expresso and Bounce to amp up Munch and Abe’s abilities to perform cool moves. For the more direct approach, possess high-caliber weapon toting enemies.
• Oddworld, now in “new and improved 3D!” – it’s a whole new Oddworld, with lush rivers, towering mountains and hundreds of trees that bloom or die.
• Interact with dozens of different oddball races – use GameSpeak® to get Oddworld’s Inhabitants from the heavily armed Big Bro Sligs to the cute but ferocious Fuzzles) to carry out tricky tasks or just beat the crap out of enemies.
• “Frustration Free” gaming – Oddworld’s new intelligent cinematic camera, auto-targeting system and no-stick navigation system makes playing a breeze! Plus with easy

So far, it has only been a digital release but in true Limited Games Fashion, could be getting a very limited time run. No further details have been released at this time regarding platform availability, or a specific date outside of this upcoming February. Stay tuned, a full reveal is imminent!
