Step-by-step Instruction for "Backwards Swinging"
This strategy, or technique is most useful during the early game or on the first night.
  1. Face towards the opponent.
  2. Swing your weapon!
  3. Just right after clicking the left-mouse button (LMB), move towards the opposite direction!
  4. You just did it! You swinged your melee weapon while moving backwards!
Alternative Options
Of course, there are alternative options, the actual melee weapons that you can swing while moving backwards. A few of them are:
  • War Axe of the Night
  • Excalibur
  • The Axe

    Thank you for reading!

Only with some weapons, like spears.
If you are coming from starbound, this is a different game with different controls. Sorry.

As scott stated only with some weapons like spears can you run one direction and face/attack the opposite. You'll have to experiement.

IDK if my game was glitched or messed up in some way, but I remember all swords swinging towards your mouse, and your guy could walk backwards much more easily.

-EDIT: I've only ever played PC
