OH NO @Contra HQ!!! MR. BIG ROCK, with the help of @Rive, has stolen your goat!!!

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,...
