Though the studio is still hard at work on its HD renovation of one installment of the
Oddworld Inhabitants franchise,
Stranger's Wrath, it seems Just Add Water already has a second remake underway. EGM
recently teased an interview (which will appear in its upcoming March 2011 issue) with series creator Lorne Lanning, in which he reveals, "
Abe HD is going into production," later adding, "It's basically
Abe's Oddysee being redone in a 3D physics engine as a 2D side-scrolling platformer."
Though pickings are slim in the EGM preview, Lanning did mention that the studio is "not trying to reinvent any wheels. It's like, 'Can we make that experience in a new engine, with new tech, in the old way?'" We bet you can, if you really put your mind to it. We've got our fingers crossed that more details about the
Odd remake will surface in the full interview, when the new EGM hits newsstands next month.
