New release of Lockstep Arcade, adding 'Spirits' game (N++ like with online co-op)

So I added another game to Lockstep Arcade, shown in the clip.

The new game, 'Spirits', is an homage to the classic platformer N++, with inertial movement (WIP), and support for online coop.

Elements included so far: switches and doors, edge crawlers with beams, mines that rearm, timer and time replenishing pickups. (Many more to be added.)

I'm interested in thoughts/feedback about the control method, because this is central to the game and very tricky to get right (so still to be tweaked a lot).

I'm also interested in trading play-testing, and setting up mutual play sessions with other people developing multiplayer games (as discussed here.

The game is playable in free a browser, including for online play, with no account required (use 'Connect as guest').

Other games in the arcade include:

- Neon Swarm (a Lemmings retake, single player, multiplayer versus and co-op)

- Pilots (multiplayer battles with homing missiles)

- Serpents (a multiplayer version of the classic snake with inertial movement, single player with high score)
