yes they have no eyes because they dont need em the sligs order them about like attack dogs,, and sligs have no legs (there mechanical) the can also fly because they can have a proppeler installed. a slog is a sligs best friend , its basicly an attack dog that can be ordered about by a slig, with commands like "GIIEEET 'EM!!" and stuff, they were real fun to posses because you could order the slog to attack another slig. glukkons could be possesed and you could order sligs about with them, so you could order a slig to machine gun another slig to death and stuff, great fun , i played those games as a kid, but in the end i didnt save enough muddokens so the native mudokens let me be thrown into a blender sorta thing.
and if you took control of a paramite you could lead your little pack of paramites about, there was this one level when you had to posses a scrab and fight other scrabs to the other side of this tunnel but while you were controlling the scrab, these green things that were absoloutly tiny would lick you and after they'd licked you a certain number of times, one of them would swallow you hole even though they were only the size of your foot, little bastards
the story of the one i loved as a kid was increditly deep, but in a nutshell, abe is a mudoken who was cleaning when he over heard the glukkons say they were going to kill the mudokens and sell them as snacks and stuff , like this drink that when you drank it he farted and you could posses the fart ew, but anyway he decides to try and help all the muddokens escape and so you must go up a kudoken and ask him to follow you and sneak around the sligs and slogs and all them and get to these birds and when you chant they turn into a portal and the muddokens that are following you run into it and you do that, thats the bare bones of the story.
here are some screenies from one of the oldesnt and best oddworld games the new ones have brilliant graphics but arnt as traditional,
here are the legless sligs going to get there "wings" at the appropriatly named "getcha' wings station" and that oval with the green line in it can be talked to, it has a very jolly voice and you ask it to open doors and stuff forn ya'
here are the paramites and abe has possesed one of them and he is going to use it to tug that rope to open a door and there are those little green bastards that can eat you hole like a fly eats a frog, they can't be possesed,
the graphics of the new ones can be seen in the first post. are they gonna make anymore of these games?
elum was brilliant, you could ride him like a horse around the native mudokens territory, you had to wistle to get through some doors or they would shooot you with a sling shot
also mudokens had moods and you had to cheer them up and tuff by saying i am sorry or somthing in that cute mudoken child like voice
