ENEMIES

-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-

Skull
Simple enemy; follows you around! Low health, but decently quick.

Eyeball
This enemy bounces around the screen, regardless of the player's position. A bit slower than a Skull, but beefier!

Ghost
Similar to a Skull in that it follows the player around, but it is invisible until it gets in close range. Slower than a Skull but has a lot more health!

Alien
Does this really even look like an alien? Are aliens even "spooky" nowadays? I don't know. Either way, it charges at you once it gets close. Very quick but low health.

Coded in just under 2 days as part of a personal Halloween game jam! Pretty happy with the results but who knows it might be super buggy haha. Please let me know if you encounter any strange behavior so I can try and fix it! :)
