Most sounds in the game come from his kitchen, but do they fit this enemy?

Enemy Tells in Combat
Paying attention to enemies' behavior is important in battle. Some have a pattern and knowing/reacting to it will help you get through them more easily. For example, this turret charges before attacking.

While adjusting the pattern offset to make my mech the prettiest one at the prom, I noticed my controller had drift, and it created this cool animation.
