Hitting an enemy in mid-air should hold you up for a moment

Fighting in the air feels great when each landed blow keeps you aloft just long enough for the next. Allow it without limit and fights never touch the ground; allow it on misses and players hover for free. Here is how the hold works and where it stops.

Why this works

A hit in the air should feel like a moment of control, not a stop in time. Holding the body briefly after each hit, less each time and only a few times, lets a combo flow while the limits prevent hovering forever.

When not to use it

Not suited to games where the realistic fall is part of the challenge, such as survival or sports games. There, a hover looks odd. Use a small upward bump on a hit instead, which keeps the weight of the body.
