this is a COMPLETE rebuild of the original game in unreal engine, with both the original levels and a bunch of quality of life features added. this thing looks fucking incredible, one of the labor-est of love labors i've ever seen. if you ever played the original (or like weird obscure RTS games) it's absolutely worth checking out. Gonna try it out myself this week, I hope. Find the download here: https://baraklava.itch.io/manic-miners and the trailer below!
Rock Raiders was the only RTS I felt like I could keep up with as a kid and even though it's more or less abandonware at this point it's really quite difficult to get running on modern computers (it wasn't exactly stable on contemporary computers either!), so this reaching 1.0 status is really quite nice. I never thought I'd see the day!
