Cut/PS1 content added to Manic Miners
Does anyone know if Baraklava plans on coming back later to update the game by adding cut/PS1 content? The PS1 game had various enemies not seen in the PC version, geysers/lava plumes, and Rock Whales (passive creatures that act like living barriers). It’s a shame the game was super rushed and they wasted time working on PS1 ports because with a few more months the planet could’ve felt so much more alive, and they would’ve been able to further refine the gameplay.
The way I imagine snakes working is they’d be able to swim through water and move across land. They could either just scare your miners, or be hostile (I think the black ones would fit better in the latter category, or just give them swim in lava). Giant spiders using webs to slow your guys down is definitely more mechanically interesting than them being generic enemies like in the PS1 game. PS1 scorpions sound like a natural evolution of how they would’ve been in the PC version, and them getting a ranged variant makes them more interesting.
