Player Movement

Basic

The player has basic movement capabilities that consist of running left and right as well as jumping.

To move the player use the left and right arrow keys and to jump use the up arrow key.

Advanced

• The player can double jump by pressing the up arrow twice. The double jump only resets when the player touches the ground.
• The player can also scale a wall by pressing the up key with left or right key (depending on wall direction) repeatedly.

Health

The player has a health system where the player is provided with five hearts at the start of every level.

Lives are lost on contact with the "enemy" which is dependent on the level. Fire sprites are found in the forest, oil sprites in the ocean level, and acidic clouds in the city level.

Lives can be gained on each sustainability action, such as planting trees, managing energy usage, and cleaning up trash to signify that the change has a positive on our health overall.
