πŸ’‘ AI App Starter Prompt

Use this prompt to build a project with arcade
Create a simple yet engaging 2D platformer game using the 'arcade' library in Python. Your game should feature a player character that can move left and right, jump, and collect coins while avoiding obstacles like moving platforms and enemies. Here’s a detailed breakdown of what your game should include:

1. **Character Movement**: Implement basic movement controls where the player can move left and right using arrow keys or WASD. The player should also be able to jump.
2. **Collectibles**: Place various coins scattered across different levels. When the player collects these coins, they earn points.
3. **Obstacles**: Include moving platforms and enemies. Moving platforms should change their position periodically, requiring the player to time their jumps correctly. Enemies should chase the player; if the player touches an enemy, they lose a life.
4. **Levels**: Design at least three different levels with increasing difficulty. Each level should have unique designs and challenges.
5. **Score System**: Keep track of the player's score based on the number of coins collected. Also, display lives remaining and the current level.
6. **Game Over**: The game should end when the player loses all their lives. At the end, show the final score and allow the player to restart the game.
7. **Graphics and Sound**: Utilize the 'arcade' library to add appealing graphics and sound effects. For example, play a sound effect each time the player collects a coin or collides with an enemy.
8. **User Interface**: Create an initial screen where the player can start the game, and a screen that displays the final score after the game ends.

Use the 'arcade' library to handle window creation, event handling, drawing sprites, and managing game physics. This project will not only showcase your ability to use Python for game development but also improve your understanding of object-oriented programming principles.
