 Stewart Gilray explained that initial conversations led to discussions about "new items" and their website now indicates they are the "exclusive developers for titles based upon the Oddworld brand", and has expanded their team from two to 17.This would not have been possible without Oddworld's faith in their own brand—they had the foresight to guarantee that ownership of their IPs would be returned to them after a couple of years out of the industry, and kept all of the assets from the original games, of which Just Add Water now has full access.Of Just Add Water, Lanning said, "In sitting at the [Just Add Water] studio... people are there until 1am... you know you have a team that cares about the content, they're not just trying to get a product done, they're trying to get something they're proud of done."
