Dropkick The Faint

You control a character who runs from one side of a stage to the other. The main objective is to collide with each member of the band, launching them off the platform. You build momentum by running, then time a button press to perform the dropkick as you get close. The mechanics involve managing your run-up speed and the precise moment of impact. The pacing is quick, with each attempt lasting only a few seconds, and the difficulty comes from nailing the timing to achieve the longest possible launch. It feels like a brief, physical release of energy.
