In Periodicity - Hats and scars you can equip three weapons at the same time. Here I briefly explain how it works and which weapons are available so far.
Hats
Each hat in the game gives you a different weapon. There are currently three hats and the option to go out without a hat. These are almost always long-range attacks.
The classic cowboy hat is the first hat you'll find. It gives you a pistol that shoots an aimed bullet at a nearby enemy. Further bullets are possible. However, these will not be aimed.
The scare crow hat shoots two feathers at the same time. More feathers can be added to make it easier to hit opponents.
The bowler is a classic. It gives you a shotgun that doesn't shoot as far, but has a wider spread.
Tools
Tools help you to loot materials so that you can rebuild the village. These are mostly melee attacks that can be upgraded.
The axe can chop down trees to bring you wood. It strikes both trees and enemies in circles around you. Unfortunately, it breaks immediately when it hits any monster. However, there are upgrades to change this.
The pickaxe can smash rocks and therefore brings you stones. It always strikes in the direction of travel, so your positioning is very important.
The shovel pierces the ground in front of you at high speed and can uncover monster materials. It attacks in the direction of travel, so positioning is also very important here.
Tricks
Tricks are the last type of weapon. These are almost always medium range attacks or area attacks.
The aura is an area attack that pulses around you every few seconds and can hit all enemies. With the right upgrades and a bit of luck, the aura can become very powerful.
The card trick create individual cards that fly around you and injure opponents who touch them. After an upgrade, the cards are reshuffled.
Many more weapons, tools and tricks are planned.
