Create an enemy

Here we'll create our first enemy: a small, red square that'll soon blossom into what we know today as "the goomba." Creating an enemy is not that complicated, all we have to do is create a separate class, code it so the instantiated object moves on its own, then add the necessary collision detection with our player.

We'll refactor our code along the way, creating functions to help make our conditionals as clean as possible.

Hey Mark, I had the same issue with the jumping and I can definitely help with that. So in your player class with the constructors, you'll add a this.jumps =0;, and a this.maxJumps = 1; then in your window.AddEventListener with the keydown, under your jump case, you'll add if(player.jumps < player.maxJumps){ player.velocity.y = -10; playerjumps++;}

Good luck with the other part!
