Another question, was Squeek confirmed to be the star of the third part of the quintoligy, and is there any infomation on him?

Squeek is definitely the third hero of the Quintology, but we know nothing about him short of his becoming an accomplice to Abe and his cause, as Munch has done. Lorne has admited only that
Squeek’s Oddysee will feature species involved in mutualism, leading some to speculate that Squeek is some kind of gestalt entity.

In Abe's exoddus, during the bad ending Abe is tired to the *tear collecting thingy* and shocked so that he would cry, but oh no, they shock him too much and he dies....and turns into birds?
In Abe's oddysee I was always under the impression that he turned into birds when he dies because the gameplay part of the game is just a memory of what has already happened (Cause at the start of the game Abe has already been captured and is telling the story which your playing), so when you *die* in the game, Abe doesn't really die at that point, so the birds represent Abe thinking back trying to remember what really happened (at least thats what I think). This would also explain why you get unlimited lives. But during the bad ending when Abe gets chopped up, he doesn't come back.
Which brings me back to my question, why does Abe turn into birds at the end of Abe's exoddus? Even if im wrong about Abe dying in game play, what about the bad ending on Abe's Oddysee? He doesn't turn into birds then. While we are on the subject, what about Munch? Both Munch and Abe not once turn into birds in Munch's oddysee. The closest they get is their health being birds. Is it because the gameplay in that game isn't a memory?

The gameplay of
Abe’s Exoddus is also a flashback—Abe narrates in parts, always using the past tense. Abe of course comes back after being chopped up in RuptureFarms, and after being electrocuted by the Tear X‐Tractor, he just goes back even further in time/gameplay, to give him a chance to redeem his bad Quarma. The lack of birds in the bad ending to
Abe’s Oddysee was probably just an oversight. Birds still represent life in
Munch’s Oddysee, but they are released gradually as characters’ health depletes. For reasons of gameplay, automatic regrouping of the birds to reform Abe was replaced with egg nests.
