## Assignment

1\) Create **five** levels in which the player needs to explore in a controlled way. The level should have a start point and an end point. Think about how far / high characters can jump to keep parts blocked off.

Make sure you control how the players can progress through the level with terrain. You should use Probuilder, MagicaVoxel, or both to design your level. You can also use other resources such as physics materials.

2\) Add at least one "hidden area" to your level.

3\) Add at least one area which requires an item to progress.

4\) Create one power up for your character (different than the progression item).

5\) Use slime enemies in the environment. If your player touches a slime, restart the level (or if you are feeling like a bit of a challenge, make checkpoints and move the player to the last touched checkpoint).

6\) Create at least one additional "humanoid" enemy complete with animations. Make sure the player can interact with the enemies in some way (attack, avoid, etc)

# Agent Instructions
This documentation is published with GitBook. GitBook is the documentation platform designed so that both humans and AI agents can read, navigate, and reason over technical content effectively. Learn more at gitbook.com.

## Querying This Documentation
If you need additional information that is not directly available in this page, you can query the documentation dynamically by asking a question.

Perform an HTTP GET request on the current page URL with the `ask` query parameter, and the optional `goal` query parameter:

```
GET https://gilmour.online/compsci/3d-game-design/game-3-third-person-platformer.md?ask=<question>&goal=<endgoal>
```

`ask` is the immediate question: it should be specific, self-contained, and written in natural language.
`goal` is optional and describes the broader end goal you are ultimately trying to accomplish on behalf of the user. GitBook uses it to tailor the answer towards what is most useful for that goal.

The response will contain a direct answer to the question and relevant excerpts and sources from the documentation.

Use this mechanism when the answer is not explicitly present in the current page, you need clarification or additional context, or you want to retrieve related documentation sections.
