What's a bit strange is that each enemy's drops are completely random. Clearly, I defeated an opponent with 3000 health, but I still got a copper sword (nothing else besides the sword). The whole game seems to be set in endless mode, and each time the enemy's health doubles\u2014that\u2019s all there is.\n\nSome suggestions: \n\n- Give the player the same hit animations; you have already done this for the enemies. Doing the same for the main character can better show that you are in combat.\n\n- Open the display of the box to make the scene slightly richer, moving away from a simple falling animation.\n\n- Maybe have a few more attack detection buttons? For example, typing could trigger an attack, or the mouse wheel could attack? That would make the left mouse button easier to use. This point like @mr-mesmer show img.\n\nAnyway, thank you for bringing this cute cat! I\u2019m also giving you one in return.\n![ThanksCAT.gif](\/\/\/raw\/afd\/36\/z\/6f581.gif)","format":"md","likes":0,"spam":"N"},{"id":1183023,"author_name":"Felix Kern","author_uid":"felix-kern","epoch":1760344524,"text":"Love the style, reminded me of some old Youtube Videos I watched back in the days :) Would be cool, if you have to switch swords, because they each would have different effectiveness against the several enemies.
