Made a lot of progress with the ability modifier system. Trying to build the system to be able to handle any combo of mods, giving the player 100% agency.

Still missing a lot of sounds but I have been adding a lot of gameplay interactions. Enemy stagger system.
Enemies become vulnerable during some attacks, so you can interrupt them. Also interrupting enemies during some attacks causes them to backfire.

Not too much to show, but I've been revamping the visuals and sounds of all the enemies.
Here's the basic enemy with the updated VFX/SFX.
Let me know what you guys think!
