If someone is pulling you with Space Magic Ray, they can pull you faster than you can move yourself, but you can still move from side to side- and with slick flying you can spiral out of the beam's reach if they don't compensate

good design: the developers of N++ found that a lot of playtesters felt like they sucked at the game because they kept dying, so they made it so that the demos that play on the title screen are all of the character failing. you'll never see the ninja on the menu reach the exit. it's as if to say "don't worry, you're supposed to die a lot. you'll get there."
hilarious design: as you play the game, those demos get replaced with your own fuckups

"Then... why are you returning it?"
"This will sound really weird."
"Try me."
"It misses it's mum."
"Oh! That's a rare glitch. No return necessary, it can visit the factory any time during business hours."
"Oh good!"
