Hmm I don't know it was on the 'Official' website I'd like to think they would take time to make things accurate, also size and scale are important parts of the design process.

They didn't. This is a
dramatis personae, lined up in front of a height chart for effect. The scales are all wrong.

Oddworld is a whole different planet. Everything in that world can be super huge. I mean, we only seen not even a fraction of what the world that is Oddworld.
Here's an example: On Earth, the average human height would be about six feet, give or take. And Oddworld, who knows, it could be ten fifteen, know what I mean?
Sure, gravity must be powerful there but the inhabitants have adapted to it as we did here on Earth. Oddworld isn’t that much different from Earth, it’s just a huge different scale. I mean it’s ten times the size of Earth.

An organism adapted to high gravity and pressure is a short, dense, stocky blob, probably with many paddle shaped legs to drag itself along. On a world with the gravity suggested by Oddworld's size (in which the in-game floar, fauna, climate and physics do not corroborate), falling over for any of the creatures we'e seen so far would be fatal. Think falling off a building at faster that maximum velocity. The only feasible species design so far are slurgs.

I think the gravity would be stronger if the density of the planet is the same as ours
|
A planet that size would be far denser than Earth, because of all the extra mass weighing down on the mass below, compressing the planet. And even with all that compression, we result in a world ten times the size of Earth. No plate tectonics, no continents, no oceans. A super Venus.
