And the damage you deal depends on your speed at impact. \r<br\/>Therefore: the faster you can smash the dash button, the faster you go and the more damage you deal.\r<br\/>\r<br\/>(In the Post-Compo version you can also hold the dash-button to run faster, but it's still not as fast as rapidly smashing the dash-button)"},{"author_name":"tompudding","author_uid":"12467","time":"Aug 27, 2013 @ 10:09pm","epoch":1377641040,"text":"I appreciate the digestive accuracy, though I wish the goat poop could be used to damage or dissuade the enemy!"},{"author_name":"mochalematazi","author_uid":"26040","time":"Aug 27, 2013 @ 10:11pm","epoch":1377641160,"text":"At first, I was confused since I only thought dash was used to go fast.
