Movement Mechanics
Movement is the most important aspect of this game so we will start with the basic dash of Ivan

Now for some advanced techniques on movement.
Half-step: This is when you dash cancel in mid air by switching your weapons in between the dash animation to gain a shorter dash. This could be useful in many situations. If you are facing a skilled opponent they will know the distance of a normal dash and can easily predict where you will be moving, using the half step technique you could make it harder for the enemy to predict what spot you will end up on and in some situations could save your life.
The half-step side dash: JUMP>D (or) A>D (or) A> ATTACK (melee)> Switch weapon
NOTE: This must be done very quickly in order to take effect
