branch master

Checkpoint: watchtowers with decks, wall hurtboxes, and spawn spacing.
Inbox: Drive folder
Overview
Two unrelated Git histories, 426 tracked files each. Same art for slide/run/land. Different game underneath: keys, slide timer, hitboxes, spawn, lives, kick, towers.
Do not treat as the game

Hut eaves slidable and board-arrow towers solid. Playtest, hanging, kick-breaks-rocks live here only.

Methodology errors
Why we diverged. These are process mistakes, not Rizky bugs.
1
We treated the Icarus fork as the game.
Packed our zip for Rizky. Wrote CONTRACT.md, playtest_driver.gd, and walk skills against our architecture: pattern spawner, hanging, GameState.lives, kick-breaks-rocks, hut-eave-safe.
2
Discord notes mapped onto our scenario table.
slide_into_rock, hut as platform, tower_00/02. Canonical has no hanging, no playtest, no watchtower.gd.
3
Input maps are not the same.
Writing slide to .godot/walk/command talks to the fork’s action names, not Rizky’s keys. Canonical: D jump, S kick, Down slide.
4
Slide art is identical. The stutter was our clock.
8 frames @ 15 fps ≈ 0.53s loop, still loop: true. Icarus SLIDE_DURATION = 0.65. Canonical already 0.5.
5
Identical SpriteFrames hid a different game.
Hitboxes, spawn, lives, restart, and tower scenes do not match. Regression tooling would have measured the fork.
Input map
Same action names in Godot. Different physical keys. This is the first thing that makes walk notes lie.

Slide clock
Art is the same clip. The timer is not. Scale is 0–0.65s (Icarus duration = 100% of this bar).
0.50s canonical SLIDE_DURATION
~0.53s art loop (8× / 15 fps)
0.65s Icarus timer
SLIDE_DURATION = 0.5. Ends when the timer hits 0. Already shorter than the looping clip, so the clock does not overrun the loop.
SLIDE_DURATION = 0.65. Ends via _try_end_slide() then _hanging_still_in_hit_area(). Timer longer than the 0.53s loop → stutter we diagnosed. Hanging linger has no canonical equivalent.
Same art SpriteFrames slide / run / land in main.tscn are byte-identical. slide still loop: true, 8 frames, speed 15. Default anim: canonical run kick, Icarus run.
player.gd
| Canonical | Icarus fork | |
|---|---|---|
| End slide | timer hits 0 | _try_end_slide() + hanging linger |
| Hitboxes | swap SlideHitbox / DoubleJumpHitbox / FootCollision | resize one body+hit rect (SLIDE_HIT_H = 40) |
| Lives | player.lives + lives_changed | GameState.lose_life() |
| Kick | anim only; clears on land | stays until run kick finished; breaks Rock*; score 25 + Sfx + kick_pop |
| Hut | every hut area can drain | _hut_corner_is_safe if y < 188 |
| Idle gate | none in physics | GameState.is_running() early return |
| Hit drift | -DRIFT_SPEED | -GameState.game_speed |
| Death | freeze_world() + pause | GameState.end_game(); delayed pause |
Spawn
Canonical rolls. Icarus plays a fixed 12-slot tape that includes hanging and a bridge — neither exists in the RAR game.
Icarus PATTERN (loop)

05hut
06gap
07rock

09hanging
10tower

Interval 0.9 scaled by speed. GROUND_Y_TOWER = 121. Scripted watchtower.gd swaps textures 00/02 and 01/03. Rose chips (hanging) and gold (bridge) are fork-only.
Canonical random
Hut 25%
Rock / bamboo / bamboo2
After a hut, tower chance 1/3. After bamboo, tower chance 0.1. Four tower scenes. GROUND_Y_WATCHTOWER = 63. Interval randf_range(1.8, 3.5). No hanging. No GameState gate. No reset / seek_kind.
Scenes / hitboxes
Same path names, different nodes. Boxes are scaled ~0.7 px per Godot unit, feet on the ground line.
body 24×150
foot
slide 90×40
dj 48×58
Body (24, 150) + FootCollision (24, 24) + SlideHitbox (90, 40) + DoubleJumpHitbox (48, 58). _update_hitbox() toggles disabled flags.
body 64×150
hit 44×140
No extra slide/foot/dj nodes. _set_crouch rewrites rectangle sizes pinned to feet. floor_snap_length = 12.
Obstacles
| Canonical | Icarus fork | |
|---|---|---|
| Hurtboxes | child HitArea / BodyHitArea / RoofHitArea / WallHitArea; root often collision_layer = 0 | root Area2D collision_layer = 2 |
| Hut | BodyHitArea + RoofHitArea; roof not one-way | one-way roof StaticBody2D + _hut_corner_is_safe |
| Towers | Deck + optional WallHitArea, scale ~1.2, plant y 63 | scripted posts/panels, scale 0.85, plant y 121 |
