You remember those rings that are everywhere in slime rancher, those massive ones?
Well There is one in the ruins too, at the start...
I expected those to originate from the ruins, but they do not,
In the picture the ring looks out of place, it is to dark to fit in with the light stone of the ruins
What do you think?

Could just be the shading. Or different material. Considering they're not exclusively confined in a specific area like the slime statues, I don't think it's exactly out of place once you bring together the entirety of the Slime Rancher world.

On another note, my guess is that the ancient ruins was a way to contain the quantum slimes. Or perhaps even an attempt to bring them over from their own reality to this one. But I doubt this was how slimes came to being in this world in the first place, considering the game states that the dry reef used to be a seafloor.

I Think this is what the Rings relate to.

And there are three of those rings in the Ancient Ruins. Good catch.

Come to think of it, the layout of the ancient ruins is not unlike that of Haven or the Aurora Islands in Spiral Knights. I wonder...

Heheh thanks.

About Aurora Islands in Spiral Knights, they do look similar ngl and it's made by the same company. I wonder if that's the Easter egg Nick was talking about.
