Baba the... what?[edit]

As far as I'm aware, there is precisely 0 actual information on what Baba is. I highly doubt Baba is a Rabbit (I think they're a ewe/lamb), but at the same time we need some grounded source on what Baba is. —moonythedwarf (Braden N.) 02:10, 8 June 2020 (UTC)[reply]

I found an interview with the dev that confirms what the intent was (goat, surprisingly). --Masem (t) 03:42, 8 June 2020 (UTC)[reply]

Masem, I actually just now asked the dev. There's no official answer, so Baba isn't actually anything at all. —moonythedwarf (Braden N.) 04:24, 8 June 2020 (UTC)[reply]

note: this was asked on discord. Sadly, Discord chat logs are not (yet) a reliable source. —moonythedwarf (Braden N.) 04:27, 8 June 2020 (UTC)[reply]

I left it as "goat-like" so that it remains vague and to something we can source. The quote's included in the ref so that the reader can see it wasn't a hard-set choice, we just need a descriptor here. --Masem (t) 04:54, 8 June 2020 (UTC)[reply]

I always thought it was a pun. Baba is.. ewe. I guess I was wrong. casualdejekyll (talk) 01:28, 5 August 2021 (UTC)[reply]

Baba is you.

I could swear everyone was just supposed to be whatever, because the game's art style is too simplistic to juggle species around. cogsan (talk) 18:10, 30 January 2023 (UTC)[reply]

Outdated picture[edit]

I have noticed that the second picture, under Gameplay, is outdated. In the current version, traits are colored blocks with the words being "cut out" from them in order to differentiate them from nouns, however, in this picture, they look the same as nouns. I have also noticed that the level used, "Where Do I Go?", is slightly different from the current version. Could someone please fix this? RteeeeKed (talk) 20:50, 24 December 2020 (UTC)[reply]

This is not required. The differences are trivial compared to the purpose of the image. --Masem (t) 21:28, 24 December 2020 (UTC)[reply]

Baba plushie from February 13, 2024[edit]

Hello! I was checking Fangamer's website, when they released a new plush of Baba. Where would info about the Baba Plush go? Or is it not notable? - The Master of clockHedgehogsclock ^{(always up for a conversation!)} 13:17, 14 February 2024 (UTC)[reply]

I don't think this is notable unless there is a secondary source covering this (that Fangamer is selling Baba plushie) 0xDeadbeef→∞ (talk to me) 13:37, 14 February 2024 (UTC)[reply]

did some looking and... nah, not yet

give it 2 weeks or so, and maybe someone will cover it cogsan _{(nag me) (stalk me)} 13:46, 14 February 2024 (UTC)[reply]
