Every time I play this game I like it a little bit more but I still don't think it's a classic. Perhaps it's time for another chance?
I think MDK was the first game I played on PS1 that wasn't a mascot platformer, followed by LAPD. It was one of the few games I had access to so I played it even though I didn't like it that much. Over time I started to enjoy it a bit more, but I dunno if I would have given it as many chances as I did otherwise. I get the appeal, I just wasn't really hooked.

The thing about this game is that everyone likes it for the concept and not the execution. "YOU'RE A SPIDER WITH A FLAMETHROWER, WAOW!!! HIDDEN GEM OF THE YEAR???"
It's a video game. They didn't train a real spider to do this stuff man. And the actual game is just okay.

Swagman looks and plays like a mediocre SNES game but it's on the PS1 so it has CD quality audio, which is kinda jarring. Spookiness and decent music save it from total disaster but it is a frustrating slog other than that.
