'''Maggots''' were enemies removed from ''[[MediEvil]]''. They were to feature in the [[Scarecrow Fields]] and [[Pumpkin Gorge]] levels. As their name suggests, they were large maggot creatures. They could burrow underground, and after erupting from the ground, they would spit projectiles at [[Dan]]. They can be found in the files of the ''[[MediEvil Rolling Demo]]'' and the ''[[MediEvil ECTS Pre-Alpha]]''.
==Characteristics==
===Appearance===
Maggots were giant, segmented creatures with suckers covering the front of their body. They had a big pair of mandibles and a huge gaping mouth with small, sharp teeth on their head.

==Gameplay==
Although they cannot be encountered normally, it is possible to hack Maggots back into the game in the ''MediEvil Rolling Demo'' and the ''MediEvil ECTS Pre-Alpha'' as their [[entity]] is present in the PG [[wikipedia:Overlay (programming)|overlay]] and their textures and model are in the Pumpkin Gorge [[cambridge:VLO|VLO]] and [[cambridge:WAD|WAD]] respectively.{{Gameref|RollingDemo}}{{Gameref|RollingDemo|[[MEDRES.MWD]], Files at indices 154 (Pumpkin Gorge textures), and 167 (Maggot model)}}{{Gameref|ECTSPreAlpha}}{{Gameref|ECTSPreAlpha|[[MEDRES.MWD]], Files at indices 191 (Pumpkin Gorge textures), and 204 (Maggot model)}} However, they don't seem to be fully implemented, as they do not burrow into or emerge from the ground, instead only thrashing in place. Killing a Maggot awards Dan with 125 [[points]].
===Animations===
Maggots have six animations in total.

==Behind the scenes==
===Development===
Two models of Maggots appear in the ''MediEvil ECTS Pre-Alpha''. One is used in the Pumpkin Gorge level and another is in a separate, unused WAD.{{Gameref|ECTSPreAlpha|[[MEDRES.MWD]], File 590 (Unused Maggot model)}} This second, unused version seems a lot more finished, as the Maggot is much more intricately textured. It is also not segmented; the whole model consists of only a single part, unlike the used model, which has six parts. However, the unused model only has one animation (thrashing animation).
