Give Them Moves

Because two characters staring at each other is not a game… it’s awkward.

We add two abilities:

Attack

The classic “bonk the enemy.”

def attack(attacker, target):
    damage = attacker["attack"]
    target["health"] -= damage
    print(attacker["name"], "hits", target["name"], "for", damage)

Explanation:

• We look up the attacker’s attack power
• Subtract it from the target’s health
• Print a dramatic battle message

This is the moment your characters stop being peaceful citizens and start being chaos gremlins.

Heal

The “snack break” move.

def heal(player):
    player["health"] += 20
    print(player["name"], "heals +20")

Explanation:
Healing is just adding health back.
It’s like giving your hero a magical juice box
