In an interview with Media Snobs, Oddworld creator Lorne Lanning admitted that Abe was intentionally made to "stand out from the crowd" with his cowardly and dim-witted nature.
"Now back in the 90's the day was filled with muscle bound prepubescent designs of "heroes" that justified shooting everything but didn't really stand for anything that had a modicum of conscious intelligence behind it. No offense to the creators, who I love and had fun with their games, but I'm just calling it how the rest of the world sees it. Or in the opposite gender direction, there was the quickly over saturated anorexic huge bosom sex bomb with a gun. So yeah, we didn't want our heroes to be in those categories, and those were the dominating categories. So we were definitely aiming for separation from the trends."
