====[[Helicopter|Glide]]====
====[[Helicopter|Glide]]====
Using a Glide action allows the player’s character to stabilize in the air. When combined with a Movement action, a Glide action allows the player to move horizontally across the same level without touching a platform. The player can glide over any number of spaces, but the Glide stops as soon as they reach a platform. A Glide action alone does not count as a Movement action. The player can also Glide at ground level, allowing their character to soar over obstacles and potentially rescue [[Teensie]]s along the way.

The player can jump to a higher level and then stabilize with a Glide action, allowing them to move horizontally at that level. Using a Slap action while gliding will end their Glide action, but they can use multiple Slap actions to hit a target from a distance. The player stops gliding when their figure reaches ground level after gliding over an obstacle or when they reach a platform. While Gliding, the player cannot use Crouch or Jump actions; to perform these actions, the player must first end the Glide. If they are gliding from a higher level and fall down one or two spaces before stabilizing and continuing to glide, the player must stop their initial Glide action and then start a new one.
