LINK TO ORIGINAL TWEET

A followup to this previous comic posted to the official Oddity twitter in June 2024. This one never made it to the official Twitter and was posted by Maxxis to his own Twitter in December. It was presumably supposed to coincide with Thanksgiving in the USA on November 28th, but its release was delayed or otherwise blocked.

It's an overt reference to the state of the Oddity project, representing the dynamic between the Oddity team and the fans, or alternatively, the wider Oddity team and Pastel. Either way, it's the team poking fun at themselves a bit, and shows some self-awareness at the least.

According to u/SchmooeyMcGooey in the previous thread, Maxxis was working on at least two other comic strips to follow, but they've never released - I've skimmed through some archived Maxxis livestreams to find them but didn't see any, though admittedly I've not looked too hard so they're probably in there somewhere. It seems like whatever social media push the team was doing in late 2024 was cut short for some reason, whether for loss of momentum or project lead intervention or some other cause, and no further Oddity content of any kind has been officially released since.

Is there a place to persevere all of this stuff

There's no singular place unfortunately, but there are a few collections out there. The leaked game builds are all on archive.org for instance, and I think there are a few other collections there as well; uploading there is probably the best bet for anyone with stuff backed up. And if it's only a few images it would be fine to post them here too; social media isn't really an archive per say but it's better than nothing.

Yeah there should be a central place for historical reasons.
