This is the second episode in a mini series on how we can add melee attack to our game.

In this episode we will use hit and hurt boxes to use the sword and attack the slimes.

Please remember that this is in no way the only way to create an action RPG in Godot. In most cases there will be several ways to implement a new feature.

This is how I would do it.

But I will also try to reflect on the choices made during this series. Why we make them, and what alternatives we could have explored further.
