Hi! I gave the new version of the game a try. Seems to still have some animation issues. The movement is a bit "funny" in that the player never stops. I can press left once and the player continually goes left. Same for the other directions. The attack button starts the swing animation, but only what seems like the first part of it. Then it kinda gets stuck.
I'm still learning lots about animation in Unity myself and the newer input system. I read your comment elsewhere that it's your first time using the new input system. Keep at it and check out some more youtube videos.
I don't know what level your dev skills are at, but check out this tutorial from Code Monkey.
It helped me a lot. It does go into animation and the input system. It gives a practical structure on how to arrange the code around those systems. And overall, the video is super educational and I'd suggest you watch and follow the whole thing. Not gonna lie, it's almost 11 hours long. I followed along coding and trying to understand it all, it took me more than double the time to get through. I enjoyed every minute of it as I felt like a stronger developer afterwards. And Code Monkey is a great teacher.I had a look at the other games you made on your itch account and I can see the passion you've put into them. So my best advice is to follow that video. It's really a full high quality course for free. I'm really no expert as I'm on this game dev journey like yourself.
Good luck and I hope to see you at next year's game jam.
