Vykkers and their expieriments!
 
What are Vykkers up to other than testing fuzzels? You ever wounder what their doing behind the scenes? I aweys believe that they are genetically altering life forms. There is a some concept art where they show a Vykker walking across a bridge in Vykkers lab. At the end of the bridge there is a wall with hundreds of what it looks like crio tubes holding specimens. It makes you wounder what other evil plans Vykkers are cooking up. If you go to the Universe section at Oddworld.com, I think that pic is there.

Wow, a four-legged Vykker. That's different to what we have now. And just two spindly mechanical arms? I'm glad OWI are very picky about their final designs.

Oh, the first picture popped out of no where. Now I've had to delete a great proportion of my message.

what did you want to tell us intresting about that pic ?

Shrykullmaster 03-20-2002 07:01 PM

theres a gabbit in 1 of those tubes!

MojoMan220 03-20-2002 08:52 PM

I think there is more then one gabbit in there, but then again I can't even tell if there's one.

paramiteabe 03-20-2002 09:07 PM

Mann did you notice the one on the right hand side of the gabbit. It looks something like H.R. Giger's concept of the Chest Bursters from the movie Alien:eek:

Dequibenzo 03-21-2002 01:23 AM

There are 2 that kind of look like gabbits, I think. THe other one is in the upper right most tube on the left side of the walkway. Everything there looks pretty malformed, though- maybe they are using genetic engineering. That could make for some interesting new enemies in the next couple games- two headed sligs, big bro interns, sentient fleeches (eew, that would REALLY suck).
Actually, in the Universe pages, it says that the Vykkers created Fleeches in the first place.

paramiteabe 03-21-2002 01:36 PM

Whoe, do you think Squeek could be an expieriment from the Vykkers? An expieriment gone wrong? That would be cool. Maybe one of those creatures in those tubes can be Squeek? :fuzblink:

Xavier 03-21-2002 02:09 PM

hmmm
that would make the vykkers again the big uglies
I hope OWI will create, more bad guys for squeek
and not pic only the old ones, but still keep them

paramiteabe 03-21-2002 05:48 PM

Well the Glukkens are still around but now they are with the Vykkers. Maybe it will be the same with Squeek and the rest. The enemy will still be in the game but introduce a new enemy like Vykkers. It will be Vykkers and Chroniclars and Glukkens.

Xavier 03-22-2002 02:43 AM

hmmm Chroniclers...
they don't look realy bad to be the main bad guys.
What will be the connection whit squeak

The Shrink 03-22-2002 08:36 PM

Chroniclers being beaurocrats and lawyers and tax men and all, maybe Squeek hasn't paid his taxes or the Chroniclers are selling the Mud's or Squeek's land to the Glukken's or a new baddy. That would be pretty evil, taking the homes of Squeek and the Muds away for profit.
But we know that due to the loss of Rupture Farms and the Soulstorm Brewery Lady Margaret is in trouble with the Chroniclers. I guess it's because she owes them a lot of moolah.

Dequibenzo 03-22-2002 09:31 PM

I'm curious, how do we know that again?

You know you dont need genetic engineering to have something born deformed like in those tubes... Give the mother or egg (which ever the cass maybe) a few strange chemicals (vykker products) and will out will pop a adorable little mutant that takes after its fathers side (or something like that).

why not radiations, like the second pic I posted
