The Pikeman

meet the speedster, this enemy have 2 attack pattern:

  • if he has same ground level as you he will charge toward you very fast dealing knockback each time he hits you, once you get hit you get knocked back forward making it easy to take next hit from him.

  • if he is above or below your level he will attempt to throw the spear, its not hard to dodge that as its 1 projectile but its fast one.

The Archer

Next he have the archer, only 1 attack pattern but it's tricky:

  • he places number of arrows in the bow from 1 to 4, then he shoots arrow in a fixed pattern based on arrows in the bow, so as long as you focus on how many arrows are in his bow you can dodge the attack.

The Shield Holder

lastly we have the first enemy that blocks attacks, here is how it works:

  • when not in attack mode he will place his shield on his back making a stealth hit very hard

  • when in attack mode he holds the shield forward making front attacks useless

  • when he gets close he stops and attacks with the dagger, if you timed you attack correctly you can damage him now, also attacks from the top can damage him making extra jumps in mid air more useful

  • Shielded attacks does 0 damage to him

The Ballista

This is a stationary enemy that defends the Fortress
Will throw large burning arrows from far distances
arrows will pin to the ground setting the ground on fire

The Fortress Mortar

This is an enemy that will patrol the the Fortress
Will throw large red bomb from a far distance that explode into tiny fire balls that bounces around

Chain Reaction

This was a glitch that I decided to fix it into a feature
Imagine those 2 modifiers in your deck:
(1) +50 HP if you gained energy
(2) +2 Energy if gained HP
if you drink a health potion, those 2 modifiers will go into an infinity loop
this infinity loops is called a (Chain Reaction)
once this happens those modifiers will be applied x10 times
also player deals 1000 damage to all enemies around him
but cards that created this chain reaction will be consumed

Fireworks

Enjoy fireworks that will be thrown for each star you get on a tile

Story Comic

The Game will show comics at game start and when the game end to show you the ending

Off Screen Alert

Arrows that show enemies behind you will also give you an alert if this enemy tend to attack you from behind

Free Falling

when you are running and you find a cliff, then you will fall in the direction as you was running rather than stop in mid air

20 seconds of eyes Covered

to give player time to read his cards and hide
