Combat Core & Juice
Build the combat system that carries a 3D souls-like roguelike. One take_damage door every hit routes through, a Hurtbox and Hitbox overlap pipeline, an animation-driven AttackState, then the stat math (damage, stamina, crits, defense) and the juice (hit flash and impact) that make a swing land. Every lesson leaves a project that presses Play with zero errors.

Perfect for you if:
- You finished the 3D Roguelike Controller and want a real combat system on top
- You want a souls-like damage pipeline you actually understand, not a black box
- You want combat wired to a stats system (damage scales with strength and gear)
- You want each step to leave a project that runs with zero errors
Not for you if:
- You have never opened Godot (start with Godot for Programmers or the Controller)
- You want 2D combat (see the 2D Top-Down Combat quest instead)
- You only want finished code to copy without building it
- You expect the full boss fight and dungeon in this course (those are later courses)
