Oddworld spooce shrubs.

I think for Munch's Exoddus there should be less spooce. Lanning should make the spooce more real looking. In other word's instead of just walking over one and collecting them you have to pick them up and take them to some kind of chant circle. just like the quick time movie of the Rain Maker. The Mudokin that was walking up to the storm circle was carrying a pink humshrub. Of coarse it was called humshrubs back then when the game was for PlayStation 2.

I know there was a topic similar to this a while back but I want to give my full opinion on the spooce shrub idea.

Plus are spooce shrubs only located in the spooce shrub forest?
It would of been intresting to see them in Abe's Oddyssey on a 2 D format. But of course Lorn Lanning most likely had that idea only for Munch and the 3D format and it's farely new.

I also think spooce is some kind of fungas like a mushroom. But it's this fungas which give the Mudokins and other creatures unique abilities. I look at it as a natural life cycle. every thing alive is dependant on spooce. No spooce, no life.

So this brings me to an interesting idea. What if the industrialist were to start harvesting spooce shrubs for making possibly cigarites or cigar's and other products from it. The glukkens find out that spooce makes an excellent type of cigar. They would be stealing and depleating the land wiping out all the spooce just for makeing a new type of glukken cigar. Since Glukkens get lung cancer a lot, maybe spooce can be used for a sort of safe cigar. If you smoke spooce you won't get cancer plus it's refreshing. I can see that you have to shut down a spooce harvesting mill and regrow all the spooce. It's possible and it's anouther way for Glukkens to make a profit off the land.

This would be bad because it would start affecting the enviorment in some way. In MO the Vykkers were harveting spooce in the sewers. It's very possible.
