"It's a monkey enemy that hangs from ceilings and jumps when Megaman gets close to him"

―Note in Returning Monking's code, Megamix Engine

Returning Monking is an enemy from Mega Man 3. It is a newer, lighter model of Monking.

Returning Monking was first made available in the devkit for the original Make a Good Mega Man Level contest, where it appeared in the Final Stage.

While Returning Monking was strangely absent from the devkit for Make a Good Mega Man Level 2, it is included in the Megamix Engine, and is planned to return as a devkit enemy in Make a Good Mega Man Level 3 and Make a Good 48 Hour Mega Man Level.

Behavior

When Returning Monkings become visible on-screen, they will jump up into the air, only stopping if they hit a ceiling. If they hit a ceiling, they will hang on it until Mega Man gets close, at which point they will drop down and jump frantically. They will jump up a second time when they reach half health.

Trivia

• As of the first build of the Megamix Engine, Returning Monking is the only devkit asset to appear in a MaGMML devkit and be absent from one or more devkits following its debut (not counting the Mega Man 5 Wily Stage 1 variant of Conveyor).
