I didn't had the feeling that they were enemies. They were just walking around and didn't do anything to me. At one point a randomly hit one and that was when I realized they were enemies. I thought they would steal the ball or something.
Ahhhh I see, totally understand! We planned to properly tweak the little enemies' AI settings/give them more than just basic mechanics, but put it off for too long then real life happened. Definitely should have just made that a higher priority. Thanks again :)
