As you may see in other comments though, despite the efficiency factor, the slap feels satisfying and people have fun using it.\rAlso, I introduced the bag later because I wanted to progressively introduce the player to new mechanics as he was going by.\rIt's probably a balance mistake on my part of having the bag "overpowered" or maybe not stunning you long enough to have a true situational "advantage" of using the slap rather than the bag.
