Released in November 1998, Abe's Exoddus is a 2D side-scrolling platformer game, and the sequel to Abe's Oddysee. It continues the story of Abe, an ex-worker of the Glukkons, charting his efforts to save his fellow Mudokons from slavery by his former masters, and also to evict them from the ancient gravesite of his people's ancestors. The game features more mudokons to save, more levels to explore, more enemies to kill, and the ability to take possession of your very own farts.

An autoturn happens when you try to jump up or climb down and you're facing the wrong way, Abe will then turn around automatically. However, if you start to run away while turning, the game will 'remember' what Abe was about to do. Then if you turn without running, Abe will continue with what he was doing; climbing down. Applying the trick while jumping up allows you to stand up in places where you usually can't; after turning Abe will jump up, fall down because of the enclosed space and then stand up. This allows you to chant in certain places where you normally couldn't. Doing this while climbing down allows you to climb down anywhere you want, even through solid platforms. While I couldn't put the canceling of jumps to good use, the other variety is obviously a game breaker. For example, it's possible to skip the BoneWerkz, Slig Barracks and the most of FeeCo Depot. In the Mudanchee Vault, I use it twice for a cool out-of-bounds shortcut. Together with some other small timesavers, I was able to improve my run by more than 50 minutes.
