Explore the first screen of the Oddworld: Abe's Oddysee remake
That screenshot up there is our very first look at the forthcoming remake of Oddworld: Abe's Oddysee, or whatever they actually end up calling it. The game isn't even in the pre-alpha stages of development (according to Oddworld Inhabitant's Facebook page) but gazing at the full-sized version of this picture already has our hearts rhythmically chanting and possessing our wallets.
Still no information on when the Oddworld update is expecting to be released, though we figure "not for a while" is a safe assumption on account the whole pre-pre-alpha thing. Oddworld Inhabitants and developer Just Add Water plan on debuting the game publicly during the 2012 Eurogamer Expo this September.
