Mechanics

• Keys and Locks - A key opens a corresponding lock, enabling interaction with "levers" across different levels or scenes.

• Combat and Collision Boxes - Hitbox, hurtbox, parrybox, pushbox, similar to those used in fighting games.

Systems

• Functions Library - Global utility functions for mathematics, pause management, screen effects, and geometry operations.

• Phantom Camera - Advanced camera system with 2D/3D support, multiple camera types, noise effects, and smooth transitions.

• Save System - Comprehensive game state persistence with automatic node tracking, manual checkpoints, and file-based save/load operations.

• Buffer System - Input buffering and action timing management for responsive player controls (coyote jump, input buffering, etc.).

• Dynamic Expression - Flexible expression evaluation system for mathematical calculations, logical conditions, and property assignments with NodePath resolution.

• Input Visualizer - Device-aware input display system that automatically detects input devices (keyboard/gamepad) and provides localized button names and images for different platforms (xBox, PlayStation, Nintendo, PC).

• Waypoint System - Screen-space visual navigation indicators that show direction to their own positions in 2D and 3D space, always visible on screen with icon-based styling.

Objects
