Reasons to Return to Oddworld

Alex Hilhorst writes, "Last year developer Just Add Water announced that they were working on various Oddworld games, an unexpected but exciting revelation. First came the Oddboxx, a collection of all the first four games made available late last year on Valve’s Steam Network, and later on other online marketplaces. Unfortunately for Mac users like me, various technical issues made it difficult (and costly) to port the game to the Mac OS platform, though Just Add Water said that if there was a high enough demand, they would consider making it available on Mac as well. As that hasn’t happened yet, things were looking grim, but at last week’s GameCity Nights in Nottingham, UK Just Add Water announced that the Oddboxx would be coming to other consoles, including the PSN, assuming of course, that it actually ever works again."
