Welcome to the forums @SSJGAGE ! I think that the solution is that when he overlaps with the goomba, if Mario is higher than the goomba, it dies.

My goodness, this is amazing! Maybe you can take a line of code or two from this: [https://arcade.makecode.com/#example:/blocks-games/jumpy-platformer](https://arcade.makecode.com/#example:/blocks-games/jumpy-platformer). The enemies seem to die when you jump on them. Hope you figure this out

This is a great game!
Anyway, I figured out how to make the jumping on goombas thing work, and while I was at it, I added the ability to jump into the question mark (and brick)blocks from below. You still need to add the coin effect and some other stuff, but I did the basics because it felt wrong without it.

I have a couple suggestions:
1. The pipe idea is kinda cool, but you could do it in a better way by turning the screen black while Mario is traveling. Then whenever he interacts with part of the pipe, he follows the direction it’s facing (overlap block)
2. Get some animations for the lava. Using the tile utils extension, you can place a sprite on every lava tile that looks just like it. You can then animate the sprites.
3. Fix the lava death! Whenever you fall into lava, it just freezes and then Mario dies after a while.

I forgot a couple things:
1. The goombas should swap directions when they hit a wall. Just pointing that out.
2. Where are the coins? You should add them!
3. There are goombas near the start, but then… There aren’t any further along. Assuming that the problem might be that they just keep walking to the left before Mario gets there, use the Sprite Utils extension to detect when Mario gets close and then start the Goomba movement.
Still though, it really is a great game!
