xD and thank you!! Had tried several approaches to the controls -i tried your suggestion with a separate spin button -and i liked it! buuuut it also makes the game far too easy and removes the need for the player to land carefully to not lose their combo -so while i like your suggestion I think I'm going to leave it as is for now at least until I can figure out a better solution -but I appreciate the feedback and suggestions-thanks again!! :D
Oh and i really like the rail color idea -i will try that too! :D
