Double jump

Double-jumps are a popular platforming feature. The player gets a second, usually smaller, upwards boost if they press the jump key a second time while in the air. To implement this feature, you need to add a few things to the player script.

First, you will need two variables to track the state:

var max_jumps = 2var jump_count = 0

When entering the JUMP state, reset the number of jumps:

JUMP:    new_anim = 'jump_up'    jump_count = 1

Finally, in get_input(), allow the jump if it meets the conditions:

if jump and state == JUMP and jump_count < max_jumps:    new_anim = 'jump_up'    velocity.y = jump_speed / 1.5    jump_count += 1

Note that this makes the second jump 2/3 the upward speed of the normal jump. You can adjust this according to your ...
