All in all, I'm glad that no one asked me to change the species of Devine from a Mudokon to something new. I was worried that him being a Mudokon would make him to similar to Abe, while Stranger and Much were done to be different from Abe.

He doesn't seem much similar to Abe at all personally. Yeah, he is a hero character that's a Mud, but he has much different character than Abe. While Abe is often referred to as a lovable idiot, Devine (I assume that's going to be his name?) is more like some sort of master sage. That, and Abe usually doesn't get directly involved in anything, as in he doesn't usually slap Sligs to death.

Weren't the Clackers in Stranger's Wrath count as creatures done with Earth things? They're the only creatures in Oddworld so far who are based on Earth creatures, so why not have a species that is an amalgam of cows and elephants.

Now that looks back, most of the creatures are based on earth creatures. There are a few nice changes, but the thing that I think I liked the most about the Oddworld games was that there is not just one sentient species. Anyways, it's pretty obvious that a Meep is just a Sheep, Slogs are Dogs, and Bats are... Well, Bats.

But I am really glad that others find it really Oddworldian.

After some consideration, I do think it fits the world just fine.
