===Development===
====''MediEvil'' (1998 original)====
{{Cut content|section|''[[MediEvil (1998)|MediEvil]]''}}
The mini game was initially set to appear in ''[[MediEvil (1998)|MediEvil]]'', courtesy of programmer [[Matt Johnson]], but was cut out in the end.{{Siteref|MediEvil-Boards|12662|MediEvil developers - Q&A;|May 7, 2013|quote=That was a little extra added by one of the level programmers (Matt Johnston{{sic}}). There's a rock jutting out of the pond in the village and the idea was that if you stood there for a moment or two the game would start to spawn ducks swimming across the pond that you could shoot with a ranged weapon. I don't recall exactly why it didn't make the final cut. Most likely there were just too many other things to finish and debug. Shame - I love little easter eggs like this!|author=Chris Sorrell}} It can be seen in the ''[[MediEvil ECTS Pre-Alpha]]''. Unlike in ''MediEvil: Resurrection'', the ducks don't fly; they swim instead.
