Side Attack

The side attack is one of the three basic attacks that The Nameless King can perform. The side attack is the only attack which has the potential to hit an enemy more than once. Each of the two possible attacks are slower than an upswing but faster than a downswing, and each deal damage between that of an upswing and downswing. To perform a side attack, a player must swipe rightward on their device's screen.

Description
When performing a side attack, The Nameless King brings his sword to neck level. He then spins around two times, sweeping his sword out in front as he does so. During each rotation his sword will inflict damage to each enemy it hits. The side attack is very usefull as it is fast enough to hit quick enemies and it also deals a fair amount of damage. In addition, it has added advantages for attack parrying. The side attack can be used on both weak enemies and even very strong enemies such as bosses. However, a major drawback to the side attack is that after performing it, The Nameless King will be vulnerable for a brief moment, allowing the enemy to deliver an attack.
