Name: Air Walkers Description: A pair of knee high boots of varying appearance, with a set of gravitic channels built into the soles of each shoe. Abilities: On-Air: Allows a wearer to "walk" across the air by creating a dense "platform" of gravitic compression in a manner similar to double-jump boots. Long-Fall: Allows the user to fall from heights up to ten meters in earth-like gravity without being injured. Planets with higher or lower gravity will have differing effectiveness. Limitations: Fall Limit: If a user falls from higher than ten meters, the Air Walkers will break and the user will experience the full impact of the landing. Continuous: A user cannot stop their movement once they've activated their Air Walkers, as the platforms cannot sustain themselves for longer than a few seconds. If movement is stopped, they immediately begin to fall. Conditional Limitation: Battery: Air Walkers can only operate for an hour before a user must recharge them, which takes fifteen minutes. Electro-Magnetic Susceptibility: If struck by an EMP, a pair of Air Walkers will be broken entirely until repaired. How does it work: While a user is in the air, the Air Walkers automatically use the gravitic channels located on the underside of the boots to create a momentary compression field in a manner similar to Double Jump Boots; allowing a wearer to "walk" across the air as long as their movement is continuous. Flavor text: Created by the Combe Corporation for civilian use in freerunning in the early 3200s, Air Walkers found additional use by various mercenary and paramilitary units for rapid traversal over gaps too large to easily jump across naturally.

Pending. I'll be your first-pass grader today. Long Fall - Clarify with what gravity (Olympus has stronger gravity than Haven - presumably they don't have the same fall range. Is it ten meters earth-like?) When they break, shouldn't they slow the user anyway? Is there any sort of limit on how fast someone can go while using them (ie using some other tech to get fast movement and then using these to still place the platforms for 'long strides' or something?) There doesn't need to be, but I'm curious - and if there isn't a limit, maybe mention that in the app. Other than those things, this is a pretty straightforward app that will be very easy to give a pass too!
Yes! It's ten meters earth-like, thank you for pointing that out, I will edit that in. Planets with higher or lower gravity will have higher or lower heights that can be safely fallen from. I will edit that in after I post this. As for when they're breaking, no they wouldn't. This is partially me using other examples of Long-Fall tech in other apps as a reference. There is no limit on how fast someone can go while using them, just that they need to stay in motion.
