i know this isnt a hylics fact in any capacity i just needed to get it off my chest

Oh, and Mason also gave us direct permission to share Shellhead a while back (which we asked about specifically since they got a redesign for H3) so I'm fairly certain this stuff is in the clear

Since Fishing Club is public now, decrypting RPGmaker games is obscenely easy, and Mason is fine with people discussing the internals of older games like H1, I think it's fairly safe!
If he reaches out and let's me know otherwise I'll take it down immediately. Always trying to be conscientious!

While we're here I may as well share some changed enemy names:
Ambulant Mass (final) - Ambulant Formation
Deep Wiggler - Deep Wiggly
Flying Jellyfish - Jumping Lung
Dude - Observer
Adversarial Form - Miniboss

The last unused enemy is Wumf. He's funny.

The Superstitious Pastiche, also programmed into Somsnosa under the name "Pastiche." Appeared in an unused "Sea Beasties" troop with the Superhuman/Merperson!

Mutant

Here's the Merperson, also programmed but unused in Somsnosa under the name "Superhuman."

It also appears as an unused "Cave Monster" sprite in Hylics and has been redesigned for Hylics 3.

Here's an alternate version of the Leviathan, which was slightly cut down in the finished version.

Here's the Handler

This sprite is also substantially older, maybe a couple years older if memory serves properly. Could have also been a lack of experience making characters with isometric movement or a slight change in method/art style.
