This is a massive problem, and the main reason I haven't tried to self host a #Fediverse instance on my own again.

The first question I ask is "how do I keep #CSAM off the instance" and nobody can answer that question.

Added platforms. To stand on. There are also platforms offscreen to prevent the character from falling in the "transition zone" between wrapping to the other side of the screen. Something to keep in mind when implementing an actual level format and level editor.

So, writing a Metal Storm clone is just way to complex for me right now, so I'm working on a vertically scrolling platformer instead (something like Kid Icarus). This is what I got so far. You can disappear from one side and reappear from another.
