Cool. I had no idea that you were supposed to strike your own metal balls until I saw your gif so I tried to drop it on the enemies. Not really sure how I feel about the stamina bar as I felt like I was constantly running out of it and don't really understand the point of it unless you want there to be downtimes where you just dodge projectiles, but then you would probably have to limit the amount of enemies that are on the screen.

Hi, thanks for playing.
The stamina bar is there mostly to discourage using melee as your primary way to kill enemies. I didn't want to remove it because it's handy in a pinch, but without stamina you can just spam swings and kill everything in 2 seconds flat.
I tried to balance the stamina cost so it wouldn't interfere with you too much if you were playing the way I intend for best experience + scoring, which is to toss 1 or 2 balls at a time and try to build a combo.
I'm still working on getting numbers and balance just right, so I'll take this on board and tweak the stamina use a little bit.
