Swapdead Game Initial State

I should start posting to motivative me to update my current-working game. I am in a course and the next section is to spend three months making a game. I already spent about four weeks on it. I don't have much time to spend a day, while working a full-time job. Striving to keep it very small and strive to polish it well. Currently, I need to fix the battle part. I get frustrated that I cannot defeat my enemies, so I must improve that.

Could I have a more flesh out game if I clone another game? I agree I could, but I rather make something that is sorta unique. This game reminds me of Kirby, but I wanted to be the enemies instead of gaining their powers. I want to see how a game could be with that premise. I am not an artist, so the asset pack is what I bought, so I know I will get complaints that the characters don't attack up or down. I will need to rethink about how I am going to do art for my next games.

I hope you all have a great day whatever time it is for you!
