Front of the Art Book

I've just recently noticed that the purple orb on the front the Art Book is a womb for two conjoined mudoken fetus'. Does that mean maybe Abe has a twin brother, or is it just something to fill the cover? I though it was sort of interesting.

Thanks to Mister Alf (and Xav)

Q: What is the story or meaning behind the two little fetuses in the OW logo? -Xavier

Alf: The twin fetuses have long since been absorbed into Oddworld lore. The caliper and test-tube motif for the Oddworld logo was created for a brochure for the 1999 E3 convention. At the time, we were working on two games simultaneously; Munch's Oddysee and Hand of Odd. As time went on and the gears of corporate commerce kept turning, Hand of Odd faded away and Munch's Oddysee became the sole focus of production. In the end, Oddworld gave birth to a kicking and screaming Munch's Oddysee only. This is the history of the twin fetuses.

Yeah, that's pretty cool. The idea itself is good, but having a meaning behind it is even better.
