Coins, Combos & Stomping
Your character can already run and jump. Now give the world something to do. You build collectible coins that sparkle and sing, a combo-scoring HUD that warms up as you chain pickups, an enemy you stomp instead of dodge, and a clean death-and-respawn loop. This is where a controller turns into a game.

Quest Lessons
4 lessons · 1 freeIs This Quest For You?
Perfect for you if:
- You finished the move and jump quest and want a real game loop
- You want pickups, scoring, and enemies that actually feel good
- You care about juice: particles, screen shake, combos, and feedback
- You want to understand the stomp-vs-hurt decision, not just copy it
Not for you if:
- You haven't built the platformer controller yet (do Move & Jump first)
- You want 3D or top-down combat
- You only want a finished project to download
- You're brand new to GDScript (start with Code From Zero)

Traps & Hazards
Quest 6 of 8 in 2D Platformer.
Danger makes a platformer. You learn one shared trap contract (every trap is an Area2D on the player's collision mask that kills, launches, or carries), then build the game's four hazards as drag-anywhere scenes: a spike, a patrolling bat, a moving platform, and a bump-from-below ? block that drops a gem.
