I don't think it was created to destroy the peaceful life between Mudokons and Glukkons. Abe's Moon is obviously good to Abe and the Mudokons, and peace between them and the Glukkons would also be good for them. The war was created, because the Mudokons called themselves the chosen race, because of Abe's Moon. The Glukkons were probably angry, so they made the Mudokons their slaves.

I think Glukkons couldn't do anything alone... I think they acted with the help of another stronger bad class. Could my opinion be right?

Before they took to hiding their bodies in sharp but restrictive tailored clothing, they may have been physically proficient, even with only two functional limbs.

Sorry bout this one, it's most likely a question that has been answered over and over but apparently in Exodus in the background on one of the levels you can see a meech, is this true?

Unfortunately I have no idea what level and if it's true at all. Thats why I'm wondering if it's true and what level it is so I can see it for myself.

There are Meech Munchies posters in a number of AO backgrounds, maybe in an AE background.

This is not true at all. It’s one of the oldest rumours there is.

What are really Sloggies? Are they Slogs's sons? Why are they smaller than Slogs?

They're basically Slog pups.

Xavier! What the hell have you posted? Anyway, I mean Sloggies and not Sloggi XD! What are they? Jordan, I think they're Slog's pups too, but why are they smaller? Why are they slower?!? What are they?!?!? Who created them?!?!?!?

Um. Do you even know what a pup is? It's the offspring of a dog. They start off small... And grow. So I assume that's what happens with a Sloggie.

I don't think they have a queen, because I found a pattern with simpler Oddworld creatures. Paramites have queens, and so do termites. Scrabs don't have queens, and crabs also don't. I don't think Slogs have queens, because dogs don't.

Yes, just like how fish and octopi have queens too.

Birds have queens?
Used is right, but you're on the right track MeechShyrkull.
Ok, I can't realy say that, but here is what I think:
The creatures of oddworld have both physcial and behavourial characteristics of several animals, sometimes they're the same (e.g. slogs and dogs) other times they're different (e.g. Glockens look like octopuses, but they tend to act like insectiod, parastetic speacies, in that they leach of other, or mudokons physicall resemble birds, but resemble termites or ants or other communial, self sacrficial speacies which are governed by queens in behaviour.

I have a question: I don't have Munch's Oddysee and I played only some levels of it. There is a level where Scrabs kill Scrubs... what is it? And why can Scrabs kill Scrubs? Where were Scrubs before they have been killed by Scrabs? I attach a screenshot of that level.

The 1%er is not an early version of a Slig. It’s an early version of a Meetle. I suspect it was repurposed at some point during development. The conceptual development of Meetles seems very complicated. Here’s some information I’ve worded previousy (and which I found very easily with a simple Google search):
http://www.oddworldforums.net/showpo...&postcount=297
http://www.oddworldforums.net/showpo...8&postcount=27
http://www.oddworldforums.net/showpo...&postcount=537

Abe is now! That level is ‘Brewery to Be’, which takes place in a valley surrounding a windmill temple. Scrabs live in the valley. The Scrubs are kept in industrial pens—​you can see the entrance to one—​so if Abe tries to free the Scrubs while the Scrubs are still around, loss of Mudokon life will shortly follow. Abe and Munch need to lure the Scrabs into holding pens first.

On the picture of the Song Engine thing, there are 3 characters: Abe, Munch, and someone else. Is the 3rd one Squeek?

It’s a design for Munch’s Oddysee, why would Squeek be there. It’s just some Mudokon guide.
