    sounds like a concept with a insane amount of potential. one way i could see this working is if the moves you stole persisted across the game so you could build a moveset of your own choices and make some OP synergies and as you level up at certain points not only would you gain stat increase but you could gain more slots (ex: every ten levels)

    Also posted this on the game itself but... Nice work! I just beat it barely... I did break the buttons though. Also if the heal runs out on her side she starts healing for negative points lol! I know it was just fun and you did it in scratch, I don't envy you there. It's actually inspired me to get back into coding. I'm an IT major who doesn't touch code very much but using game maker sounds fun, so I might give it a whirl.

    Man I can relate to this video, I was making scratch games since I was a kid lmao. I unironically tried making a full on RPG in it about 2 years ago and decided it was so painful that I moved to RPG Maker, which after 2 years and a nearly finished game (that was unable to fulfil quite a number of mechanics I'd have liked), I've concluded that Game Maker 2 is my next best step. Amazing video!

    The heal will eventually deal damage to the enemy when they try to use it.

    As a suggestion (bear with me, I have no idea what scratch does or does not have but since you said you'll move into an actual engine I guess it can work).
    You could make the buttons into an immutable class which holds 4 "actions" and each time you want to swap, you swap with a new list of 4 actions and only on UI layer you do the thing where it moves and each button then could move into their respective order in the list of actions they now have. this way you will always make sure you will have 4 actions and that the buttons never overlap again.
