for the weapons there is no actual ammo or anything like that. I think the problem in the current version is every time you click weapon is suppose to fire. however ive also noticed if you click faster then the weapon fire rate the weapon wont fire at all. I think this is what you experienced and we are on that. the hit box in itself might be to small as well as I noticed that some times my shots would miss although it seemed that i hit directly. This is the original version of the game, since then there has been improvements. we will most likely post an improved demo in the next couple weeks/months.
In general, is the character supposed to be "that weak"?
Like I tried it with the knight, had no ammo issues there.
but given the 3,4 or 5 damage it does, it takes forever to kill one enemy with it.
and like they spawn cosntantly, so the horde gets bigger and bigger despite me killing as fast as I can.
or is thta the point, outrunning the overgrowing horder for as long as possible? :-)
they spawn indefinitely, the faster you can kill enemy's the faster you level up. the later levels get harder as you progress in the game. The gold gain is very slow to,makes it kinda difficult to progress as well. If you get Thor's hammer it makes the game like way easier as it does like 50 damage but the spawn rates for that weapon are low. I got it once testing the game for Like 10 hours. You can equipt different things to buff your character as well
