-   -   Possible Squeek Concept Art? (http://www.oddworldforums.net/showthread.php?t=21707)

I can pretty much guarantee that this is not Squeek. The concept came from Silvio's personal sit. Oddworld inhabitants have to allow which art can be shown to the public and which can't. It would make no sense whatsoever to release art for Squeek this way.

Furthermore Lorne already stated that should we see art of an unannounced quintology hero he would change it.

So, no, this ain't Squeek. Sorry guys.

I love the idea of Molluck as one of the protagonists, but I assumed from one of Lorne's interviews, Lady Margaret forces him to go face the investors in her stead because it's his fault. The last we see of him, in this instance, would be Molluck riding the elevator into the depth of Nolybab. What happens to him thereafter, we dare not find out.

I'd still root for him as a protagonist. Perhaps the Glukkon economy crashes to an irrevocable point, forcing their entire society into exile. Thus, they must join the fight against the industrialists. Perhaps not Molluck, but I could definitely see a Glukkon there.

It should totally be Lulu since everyone loves him so much.

Always thought Squeek would be a fuzzle for whatever reason. That ain't no fuzzle.

To be fair I recall seeing Lorne mention Molluck's future fate in interviews quite a lot, so I'm guessing it's something that will have further bearing on the quintology's course. Didn't one of the glukkons in AE mention Molluck at one point as well?

I once asked Lorne about that. He changed the subject.

It would certainly allow for some interesting story moments – I could see Molluck’s quest being to rediscover ancient Glukkon culture and find out where they went wrong or something.

Yes – when Aslik, Dripik and Phleg are discussing the destruction of Necrum mines, Dripik states “if [Molluck] ever comes back we’re screwed”. It’s never outright stated, but Molluck also owned SoulStorm Brewery up until Abe shut down RuptureFarms.
