Not much is known about oddworld before the mudokon Advisor Age. We do know that mudokons evolved from birds and that in general, the evolutionary course is turning bird-like animals into more reptilian creatures (kind of oposite some evolutionists veiw of earth evolution). So in the past I can imaging all sorts of dinobirds. Perhaps scrabs once had wings and feathers, but gave them up for powerful legs and a long beak once it realized there was no prey in the air.

Sligs evolved from a sluglike species and the glukkons from an octupus like thing. Both originated from swamps and I believe they are closely related species. Many members of the octigi family have mouth-fingers similar to a sligs. I also think that paramites are a part of the same animal group.

In prehistoric times an early version of vykkers would be swinging throught the trees. They were canopy dwellers who liked hights. I think that the reason theyy removed their legs is because they used to by long legs used for climbing, which are not needed on the smooth floors of Vykkers Labs.

Vast amounts of sea creatures must have been swimming the seas and even more creatures would inhabit the sky. The now extinct guardians would be raoming the forests of what would eventually become necrum and herds meeches would still be alive.

I hope that helps give you an idea of what an early oddworld might have been like. And yeah, the Almighty Raisin was probably a baby... or more likely not even born yet, depending on how far back you want to go.

One last thought. A prehistoric oddworld would possibly have less moons. They might not have been trapped by the massive planets gravity.
