I'm not particularly sure? Boolean is a new term for me so I'm not familar. 😅

But here's all my code for the squirrel if that helps? (Realizing now I probably should've posted this last night, sorry)

extends CharacterBody2D
const NAME = "Squirrel"
@onready var animation_player: AnimationPlayer = $AnimationPlayer
const SPEED = 80
var motion = Vector2()
var UP = Vector2(0,-1)
var direction= -1
var dir = 1
var gravity = 20
var knockback_dir
var knockback
@onready var ray_cast_left: RayCast2D = $RayCastLeft
@onready var ray_cast_right: RayCast2D = $RayCastRight
func _process(delta):
if is_on_floor():
motion.x += SPEED * direction
if ray_cast_right.is_colliding():
direction = -1
if ray_cast_left.is_colliding():
direction = 1
position.x += direction * SPEED * delta
animation_player.play("walk")
func _physics_process(delta):
if knockback == true:
motion.y = -100
motion.x = 100 * knockback_dir
knockback = false
motion = move_and_slide()
func _on_spinner_knockback() -> void:
var player_dir = get_parent().get_node("Spinner").dir
knockback_dir = player_dir
dir = knockback_dir * -1
knockback = true

And here's my spinner which does the knockback (or is supposed to, haha)

extends CharacterBody2D
@export var animation_player: AnimationPlayer
@onready var spin_attack: Area2D = $"spin attack"
@onready var animation_player_2: AnimationPlayer = $AnimationPlayer2
signal knockback
var knockback_dir = Vector2()
var knockback_wait = 50
var dir = 1
func _input(event):
if Input.is_action_just_pressed("spin attack"):
animation_player_2.play("attack")
for body in $"spin attack".get_overlapping_bodies():
if knockback_wait <= 0 and body.get("NAME") == "Squirrel":
emit_signal("knockback")
knockback_wait = 50
knockback_wait -= 1
if event is InputEventMouseButton:
if event.button_index == MOUSE_BUTTON_LEFT and event.pressed:
animation_player.play("Spin")

Definitely am only working with one enemy for now (which is the squirrel). After work tonight I'm gonna focus solely on art and get that done so I'll have the next couple of days to hopefully figure out the coding. 

Thanks so much for the encouragement. It's really appreciated! 💖
