I don't really like this idea. Knocking someone down is a very important part of combat in spaceman fighting because the combat honestly sucks and if someone could still attack you or shoot you or Csaber you while they are laying down still would just make it even more dumb.

Yeah while I really like this idea in theory it probably wouldn't have very pretty results.

Maybe, as a compromise, let downed players interact with anything next to or on the same tile as them - you can't pick up items (for whatever reason, just roll with it) but if someone's closing in to grab and strangle you, you might be able to trip them up or pull them off their feet or something? If you're next to a table, maybe you could... pull yourself under or on top of it? Not sure, but I think there is potential for some slapstick interactivity that gives you a fighting chance instead of going "oh, I slipped on blood/a banana/urine first, guess I'm dead now".
