Thanks for the feedback! Currently the shuriken slime is a joke slime implemented for the discord members who are saying combat is too easy!
Buffs and debuffs generally get shown once, like a red line effect, etc. Still trying to figure out a way to show buffs wihtout making the main combat scene too convoluted or ugly to see.

I think stat changes would be good as icons with positive and negative variants.
Status effects like poison, stun, burning or others could be represented on the character sprites themselves. For example: burning with a red color tint, poison with the typical green bubbles and stun with spinning stars on their heads.
