[SPEC] Flippers

Should also enable wearer to non-lethally bonk others on the head, disarming them.

It seems like a fun item, I think I can work on this.

I made some progress on this. Right now, wearing the flippers allows extra 3 jumps while mid-air and it disarms the other players when bonk on the head (makes them throw the picked up weapon). However, my poorly drawn test asset obviously does not look good and I think flippers need a walking animation very much like the "Shoes" item. So my question is where can I get those assets, should I try to draw placeholders or should I ask the designer (on Discord)? Also, maybe there should be an animation for "disarming" as well. What do you think?

[SirGiraffey]

I think it could make the fish ragdoll instead of only disarming them but then it could be unclear to the player whether they died or not.
As for simply disarming, some particle effects, a nice thump-like sound and flippers' owner bouncing back up a little should make it feel just right :)

[orhun]

I see. I'm going to create a PR for adding a functional flippers item to the game, without walking animations.

So my question is where can I get those assets

@PixelFrog123 will add this to his list. We can discuss further in chat about how exactly the art should be implemented for this.
