I like the gameplay part of trying to avoid them it just seemed a lil
unnatural. I will build new models for the mining machine tomorrow too and
lanterns. Just dealt with some technical issues

Whatever is fine. I was just putting down guys cuz no one said anything. I
thought, if I were in the cave I would panic and I went with that as a

so enemies chase you n stuff. I like your ideas.
