Allow Gouie to travel during aerial inhale#1117

Judging from the gameplay steam yesterday, it seems like Gouie will stop mid air if you inhale an opponent while airborne. Not only is it impossible to keep an opponent inhaled for longer than the eat animation (roughly 39 frames), it is not even possible to fall with an opponent for this short duration.

I don’t know what it is but it seems like the devs are afraid of making moves that can carry opponents into the blast zones. Kragg has a similar mechanic with his cargo where he will auto-throw a cargo’d opponent when off stage. Why can’t we let Gouie be this goofy cheese character that can swallow and kill players off stage. This is provided that he manages to hit them with inhale, and that they are already very close to the blast zones. That is a lot of requirements to successfully “kirbycide”.

Why does every move in this game need to make it impossible to have the same kinda fun mechanics that exists in Smash. Gouie was the perfect character for this, but not even he is allowed to have any “funny” moves. Rant over 😅
