If these guys ever update the game again, I have a very neat idea. What if the shield had durability, like how armor does when you attack it? If the shield blocks, then it would lose durability by like half the damage is being done.
Best game ever, it's sandboxy enough, but enough for me to actually have fun with it, along with all the levels and new items that are added, it makes this not have 10/10, just an amazing 100/10.
