Oddworld Inhabitants was formed in 1994 by special effects and computer animation veterans Sherry McKenna and Lorne Lanning with the goal of creating interactive entertainment.

Beginning with its debut products, Oddworld: Abe’s Oddysee and Oddworld: Abe’s Exoddus, Oddworld mixed a potent brew of Hollywood artistry with rock solid gameplay to produce experiences rich in emotionality, empathy and entertainment value. Through its products, Oddworld introduces a collection of characters set in a common universe, sharing the highest standards of creativity, quality and unforgettable personality. More than actors in a play, the inhabitants of Oddworld are A.L.I.V.E.: Aware Lifeforms In Virtual Entertainment® with their own physical needs, emotional quirks and unforgettable personalities.
