Oh, I thought it was a take on the name Jesus. That's what I thought was cool about it. Oh well. I blame Luke for being too nice.

I hadn't thought about the birds being early Vykker designs. That would be a shame. I liked the idea of them being engineers and politicians as well as doctors. The politics on Oddworld would be fascinating to learn about. More fascinating than Earth politics as filtered by the mass media, anyway.

I failed to comment on my opinions of the environment designs. They were okay, I suppose. The concept art for the Stranger environments never particularly excited me, though. I just long for the amazing vistas and viaducts seen in the backgrounds of the first two games. The usage of regular squarey shacks doesn't please me. They need some distinctive style like the barrels in Clakker buildings.
