Bugs: - If you die, it makes more coins (witch make like 5 coins in 1 spot) - The coins don’t reset with each level - I am also pretty sure the coins are off by a few pixels ---

This is so cool! Is there by chance a walkthrough to explain the coding. I’m pretty new to Makecode so some of the code you are using is over my head. thnx ---

Wont be on a computer until tommorow, but the sprite bottom checks if the spite is off screen by comparing it to the number of tilemap rows and the tile width. ---

I see the problem now. Seeing the project, instead of a set y position to on the camera, you set the x position. [Next page](https://forum.makecode.com/t/did-not-take-me-long/5958.md?page=2)
