Shovelknight DIG tweets a consideration that the game may correspond to the birth of "Shovelknight". I'm having it translated by a translation tool, so sorry if the English is weird.
If you have played Undertale, you may have heard of the game Touhou Project, or at least its name.
The character Koishi Komeiji in Touhou Project is a character who uses the dream of an unborn child inside her mother's womb in the Japanese novel "Dogra Magra" as the basis of her bullet-pointing technique.
It is a metaphor for the way organisms have evolved from microorganisms to fish and then to dinosaurs during the course of evolution.
Microorganisms include mushrooms and other fungi.
Also, Shovelknight DIG has an NPC that you can tell is a parody of Bloodborne; the Bloodborne theme is also a baby.
Based on these, it may be easier to understand the characters in DIG if we think of Spore as a fungus, Mole as a fish, and Rotating Drill as a metaphor for a fetus being born as it rotates during birth.
This is a matter of speculation, but Tinker may be a metaphor for magma as amniotic fluid, and Scrap for the large backpack she is carrying as a metaphor for her mother's belly.
As for Hive, I couldn't think of any birth-related metaphor for the idea I just came up with.
However, there is a meaningful text in the Japanese version of the camp conversation where he is dismissive of mammals and that watching the bonfire seems to reveal the truth.
My guess is that Hive is an insect, so it gives birth differently than mammals. The reason I could not associate Hive with the human birthing metaphor in this discussion is because he is an insect, or my lack of study.
If you have seen the story of DIG, you have seen that the entity at the deepest level was the source of the game "Shovelknight".
This is the "baby" of the "Shovelknight" game. Therefore, I considered Shovelknight DIG as a metaphor for the birth of the game "Shovelknight".
I hope the translation tool has been able to translate my poor musings a little better.I know this was a long tweet, but thanks if you read it.
※This sentence is the same one I tweeted on Twitter.

By any chance does Koishi Komeiji worship the blood chaos god Khorne the entity of war, hatred, and anger? Known for the Blood for the Blood God! Skulls for the Skull throne! Battlecry?
This “loser” Doesn’t worship “Tzeentch” :/
