directory to horns & avatars should be added too.
Also spacebar is used too as a button to activate stamina.

And maybe xplain that sprinting, jumping & walljumping costs stamina. ( people rly dont know what stamina is when they hear it for the first time. )

Everything else looks good.

OFF TOPIC:
More explanations on how the game works ( the gameplay ) should be added to the game as tutorials.
it will help new players / demo users and they will love to learn the game and understand it better.
