About this mod Machine translation
Skeleton enemies that were common in the original game now have a unique appearance for each dungeon.
Regionalized Skeletons
🎮 **Make each dungeon’s skeletons unique! **
In the original game, **Skeleton Minions** are common enemies in ruins, wilderness, and caves, but strangely, they are not found in the bay. This mod creates unique variants of this monster to match the style and atmosphere of each dungeon, and adds them to the bay as well. There is no change in the attributes of these skeletons, it is just a visual beautification.

🦴 List of Skeleton Variations
- **Skeleton Soldier** (original design)
- **Type:** Unclean
- **Appearance location:** Ruins
- **Rotten Soldiers**
- **Type:** Unclean, strange monster
- **Special Ability:** May spread disease
- **Appearance location:** Wilderness
- **Drown Crew**
- **Type:** Unclean
- **Place of Appearance:** Bay
- **Rotting corpse**
- **Type:** Unclean, strange monster
- **Special Ability:** May spread disease
- **Appearance location:** Beast Cave
💡 **Design Notes:** Adding additional tags to enemies (e.g. "Alien") is actually a slight nerf, as it means they are less resistant to Alien attacks. To balance this out, I added an extra chance for them to spread disease, which also fits the theme better.

Install & use Install: follow the bundled instructions
- Unzip the archive from playbuff and read the bundled readme / instructions first.
- There is no universal mod manager for this game: some mods replace game files directly, some go into a game-specific Mods folder, and some need a game-specific community loader or tool first — follow the bundled readme.
- Place the files exactly as the readme says; mods with listed dependencies need those installed too.
- Launch the game to confirm it loaded; some games require enabling mods in settings or an in-game mod menu.
Install locations vary a lot between games and mods — the bundled readme is the most reliable guide.
