Battle System update - Part 2

Added 2020-01-01 02:36:16 +0000 UTC

Here's the remade battle with the dragon, during the tutorial level.

I wasn't at my best there 😩, took a couple hits I could have avoided but it does show some of the changes that most enemies are undergoing.

No damage-on-contact but attack animations for basic enemies too
Enemies can take 🐚 defensive stances to decrease the damage taken, it becomes important to time hits and to 🎯 attack from a distance the ones that tend to raise their shields when approached
No more enemies stuck (on other enemies/walls/the player) and unable to move, you can see in the video the dragon immediately freeds herself when kobold jumps right over her
Every enemy can now have different attack patterns / timings. In the last days I've worked on bats, mimics, hermits (from Finhead area) and Dragon Princess: they all behave differently!

I hope you're pumped for January, I'll see to have Finhead and even more enemies with the new Battle System by then!
