I loved the voices of the Vykkers. I think half of the humour of it is that it doesn't suit them. It's totally unexpected, and if I'd have heard it for the first time in the game, I'm sure I would have laughed out loud. A shame the first time we hear it is when Irwin is in the distance. We should have seen more of them, and then had their voices revealed to be so high.

I also love the joke: "Don't worry; we can give you powers..." "Yeah, scary powers!" "Yeah!". The first two are delivered with deep, menacing and spooky voices. The last is high-pitched and squeeky, lol! Ah. Vocal humour is wonderfully done on Oddworld. That's a great like.
