Babe quick MilkManSteve just uploaded.

Maybe he could have a pet wolf with a revolver in its mouth that follows him around and when you right click the wolf shoots in that direction and can hit an enemy.

[icerod]

You could give him a revolver, that shoots but in a limited range (similar to the sword's range) Cool video btw

[based_dynin]

Can't wait to see how it turns out. Looks sick so far 👌 👏

[cloudy]

Look into how Nuclear Throne does attack animations
It simply teleports the sword from one side of the player to the other while creating a separate slash object which slowly dissipates
I’ve used this technique in my current roguelike and it works amazingly well

[RockOnTheKitchenTable]

The venom idea is cool and I think you should do something like that! Just make sure it makes sense in the lore

[demonz]

I feel like the older model could still work fine if you made him look more closely to a blob around the face area and just had a bigger emphasis around the face

[PlayerSlayerYT]

Dude that boss fight intro absolutely slapps

[MRZ_]

First thing I want to mention is that the new character design looks infinity better than the previous design. I'm getting the vibe that you have no clue what to make his face look like considering you covered almost all of it up despite the fact that you said you prefer it that way. Based off of looking at this new design, what if you made his entire head a black skull? I don't really have much to say about the animations because you summed it up in the video and said you would work on it. In terms of the juicey gameplay feedback, I still haven't played the game yet so I got nothing to say on that.

I really like that gun mode and sword mode idea, you can build a boss around that too

(like it can only be attacked by a sword after it does a certain move and it only does that move if you use the gun on some moving targets it has or something,

maybe it has its own safe lil cage thing and only comes out when you beat its flying goons that are hard to hit with a sword and it returns to its cage once its goons return, maybe its some kind of Canary or bird like that,

Maybe a road-runner so it has a reason why it doesn't fly and its goons are canaries)

I would love to see another music mini boss, which is a child instrument named “a minor”

[kiro]

I like the floating sword idea and the attacks that we're in the the video were pretty good i think you're doing great.

[koolkid]

for the attack, maybe the guy can have a sword with a hilt that can fire bullets, like with one key he swings the sword, but with another her turns the sword on it’s side and it fires.

[Snoebal]

I’ve always wanted to make a game, and I’ve come up with many ideas for it, but I’ve never been committed enough to actually learn game development. Glad to see you pulling through and learning it. Keep up the great work. Also what if for a 2 hit floating sword combo, you swing it overhead for the first hit, and for the second attack the sword flings out and spins in a circle.

[The-Crystal-Warrior]

I think that a character that changes between a cowboy and a ninja could be interesting

[AlX-ziux]

I really like the sword form and gun form idea, maybe he doesn’t start out with the sword form or some cutscene where his head is knocked off sending him into this sword form then the player gains the ability, I don’t know I’m not the dev but I think it’s a solid idea

[purpLCrwn]

The devil may cry ideas you said would be cool (demon form, giant sword) also make a cutscene that he gets stabbed by his sword but instead of dying he awakens his demon form, like the lore

[zoesusername]

as a nonbinary person, i can say that i am a haunted strings instrument

[ajanimations]

Lactose gentleman has uploaded, I am experiencing a boost in dopamine.

[goomberr]

as a alpha tester for this game i can say that this game was a fun mac supportless adventure
