Soulstorm is a rewrite, using the spine of Exoddus.
I'm pretty sure I've used this example before, but if you rewrite Hamlet to put it in Africa and make all the character lions you have The Lion King. But it's still Hamlet. Soulstorm will still be Exoddus, The Quintology will still be The Quintology.

Also, I never said I wanted a story focused solely on Abe. Please don't put words in my mouth.

...I see this as, for lack of a better term, "Quintology, Mark II". This is a chance to start again, to tell a simpler, more refined story. I can't help but feel—this time around—we're going to see less quasi-revolutionary risks, and a far more streamlined, character-centric story, with Abe as the lynchpin...

The Quintology, Mark II:
  • New 'n' Tasty
  • Soulstorm
  • Abe's Happy Third Adventure, sans Munch [Unreleased]
  • Abe's Amazing Fourth Adventure, featuring Squeek [Unreleased]
Forgive me if I'm wrong, but you seem to have written exactly that you want your "Quintology, Mark II" to focus solely on Abe.
