Spring Trap

"Launches your enemy with a spring, sending them across (or off of) the map!"

Description
The spring trap is a trap in Gotcha!

It can be purchased in the shop for 2500 coins. The spring trap flings the player very far, sending them across or even off the map. It is not guaranteed to kill the player and can only do damage if the player is flung off the map. Each player can only place one spring trap at a time.

Strategies
Since the spring trap either does no damage or kills the player, it does not have any effective combos. But there are certain ways to make the spring trap more or less effective. For example, the Sewers map has a roof, so the player will most likely bounce off the roof and fall into the water.

The spring trap can also be very helpful when you are being chased, as it will launch the opponent very far away.

One disadvantage of the spring trap is that it can fling the player towards or even into your goal. (Which I learned from experience. Several times.)

Another thing that affects the spring trap are bridges. Hedge Maze and Canyon have bridges that help the player navigate the map, and if a spring trap is placed underneath a bridge, there is a high chance that the player hits the bridge... and falls back down and nothing happens. However, the spring trap ragdolls the player for a few seconds, making it easy for you or your teammates to kill them with a weapon.
