OH NO @Contra HQ!!! MR. BIG ROCK, with the help of @Rive, has stolen your goat!!! Okay, on the first level, you have to throw the goat (no goats were harmed during the animation). The more points you score, the more seconds you’ll have to spend in the second level.

That makes sense — separating the end-state conditions keeps the logic modular and easier to iterate on.
Are you handling those as independent state checks or through a centralized state manager?

I’m using independent state checks within each individual script, which has proven much more efficient for debugging the specific mechanics of each stage. Essentially, each level independently handles its own completion logic and passes the necessary data to shared variables,...
