Thanks for the feedback and the suggestion, to answer your question of what the red gun thing does, it's an item that you can equip using "c" that allows you reach buttons that were previously too high to reach. Sorry for not explaining this in the actual game, I didn't get anyone to playtest before releasing it so I wasn't aware that the player had no clue of how to interact with items. Thanks for bringing this up, it really helped. I'll fix this issue as fast as possible and also try to add in your mid-air deceleration suggestion.
