From the talk and from talking to Lorne for a while afterwards, I can confidently say that this game will be the right green.
The only thing I'm iffy about is Alf's design, but I feel like it might just be because I'm so used to the original. I'm really hyped for this, it's going to be next-level oddworld. I'll probably make another post tomorrow when my brain has settled because this entire day has been a bit mental.

Alf's design is very similar in tone to that of Alfred Gamble, who is his namesake. If you look at Abe and Toby (squee for his adorableness), they have small ears and smaller foreheads whereas in comparison to the real-life Alfred his ears are exactly the same and his nose and forehead have a very uncanny resemblance.
I was sad too initially, but mainly because of his distinct lack of fez. He could still have the fez or acquire it in the new game but his look didn't fuss me too much. Kevin very quickly pointed out the resemblance to original Alfred however, and I really like the tribute.
Overall I'm very happy with what I saw and am just a teeny bit excited. The best part of the night by far was the use of my idea! No-kill runs for all!!
