You can gather more string for your yoyo which increases its power and range.
When you have more than 5 string power, your yoyo will cast explosions, but
each explosion will remove one string.

If you are hit with something sharp, you will lose health.  If you are down
to one health, you will lose all of your string.  If you have no extra string
then you will die.
