There’s very little evidence to suggest Mudombies would be gameplay characters, although even less to state they would be FMV‐only. All I can think of is a sentence or two from Stephen Pierce’s preview of
Abe’s Exoddus in the October 1998 issue of the
Official UK PlayStation Magazine:
:
New enemies are also the order of the day. Fleeches, the undead Mudombies, Greeters, Slurgs, Sloggies and many more infest the SoulStorm Brewery

I wouldn’t go by that generalized description of the game. For all we know, he was accidentally referring to Mudokon spirits rather than some earlier gameplay build.
But everything you say, Slaveless, about technical limitations could be very correct.
