Origin. Crumbling floors from Super Mario Bros. 3 (1988) to Uncharted (2007).
How it works
A floor piece that gives way: delay seconds after a character first stands on it, it falls, and is switched off once it has fallen far. For crumbling bridges and set pieces where stopping is not an option. Needs the character's Contact Events module.
