thanx!
Tbh, after getting in contact with the artist, he told me about the idea of losing control in a 2D platformer and after a bit of coding I got inspired by the game Speedrunners (it's on steam if you wanna check it out).
You crouch instead of sliding when the slide is on cooldown (it's like 0.5 or 0.25 seconds long). I did this otherwise it'd be waaaaay too easy to gain momentum and sliding would be overpowered.
I'm glad to hear you enjoyed it :D
