weapon pickup/upgrade: DONE
battle and hp system: DONE
picking up a weapon causes you to do more damage than punches(obv) and animations for weapon and i have the code in place for the final weapon upgrade.. yes they're holding a half of garden shears (kill la kill anyone?) and at some point of the game you will find the other half and then the weapon will be even more powerful
also you can use it to cut vines or something to go through paths maybe :D
also look at that mole ai i spent most of my day to that!! good battle took me a while to balance it so its not a unfair fight lol. i still need to fix that hp bar position but other than that... battle system is done? player has hp, can die etc... i just need to add a bunch of other enemies and thats basically it. my goal for today is somewhat completed
