Hold jump in the air to glide slowly down, but only for a while

A glide that starts at the wrong moment turns every jump into a float, or stops with a jerk when the energy runs out. The start condition, the braking and the refill rule decide how it feels. Here they are with numbers.

Why this works

A glide is a reward for timing, so it needs a price. A limited supply that returns only on solid ground makes the player choose when to use it, and a gentle slowing, not a sudden stop, makes it read as catching the air.

When not to use it

Skip it if levels rely on exact falls, such as dropping onto a small spot or through a trap shaft, since a glide makes every drop easy. Also skip it where other air moves already do this job; one tool for staying in the air is usually enough.
