Belly-Sliding Player Movement - How To Replicate

(I am fairly new to using Forums so notify please notify if something is off)

Hello! Currently I am trying to achieve a “Belly-Sliding” player movement similar to this

Extreme Tux Racer

I’m looking for a way like forking the Player Module or maybe scratching humanoids (Although that’s my last resort because of all the problems)

It would greatly be appreciated if you respond articulately because I am less trained in working with movement systems like these.

So far I have tried messing with BodyMovers and BasePart Velocity.

This post contains a link to an open-source platformer movement demo that has a dive and slide mechanic similar to the one shown in the video:

I believe it uses a ball part and then relies on Roblox to calculate the physics so that the controller simply has to align the character to the rolling ball, but I have not experimented with this mechanic.

EDIT:
Here’s a simple demonstration with a semi-transparent part:

I just saw this, I had no idea that existed! I’ll see to messing with the ball controller.

Edit: This is exactly what I was looking for, thanks!
