Kicking
Set the Parrot Jumping Sumo to Kicker position to push an object away.
Before pushing an object away, the spring of the Parrot Jumping Sumo needs to be
compressed. This compression may be performed just before kicking, in which case a
delay of several seconds is necessary before executing.
You also have the option of anticipating the kick by dragging the key to the left to
compress the spring, while continuing to use the Parrot Jumping Sumo. Once the
cursor has returned to its original position, you will be able to push the object away
without delay. To do so:
1. Ensure that the pad of the Parrot Jumping Sumo is in contact with the object to be
kicked.
2. Press .
The kick function is blocked as soon as you take hold of the Parrot Jumping Sumo .
