Make an original scalable icon

Worked example

An original safe-object icon could be a rounded triangle with a line marker. A dangerous-object icon could be a square with a cross, remaining distinct without hue. Scaffold C-PICKUP — An exactly-once pickup signal Setup: Create Area2D root Coin, CollisionShape2D Circle radius 10. Layer 3 (bit value 4), mask layer 1 only. Monitoring on. Attach script and save Coin.tscn. In the Node > Groups editor add Player root to group player. Put a Coin instance and Player instance in World. Manager connects each Coin.collected to its score handler (see C-MANAGER). Signal wiring here is code-only: do not also connect body_entered in editor. ```gdscript extends Area2D signal collected(points: int) @export var points: int = 1 var taken: bool = false func _ready() -> void: body_entered.connect(_on_body_entered) func _draw() -> void: draw_circle(Vector2.ZERO, 10.0, Color.GOLD) draw_line(Vector2(-5, 0), Vector2(5, 0), Color.BLACK, 2.0) func _on_body_entered(body: Node2D) -> void: if taken or not body.is_in_group("player"): return taken = true collected.emit(points) queue_free() ```

GDScript (Godot 4, not Scratch, Python, JavaScript or C#). Scaffold C-PICKUP. Copy starts from this text. The desk does not run it.

Scene and node setup

Create Area2D root Coin, CollisionShape2D Circle radius 10. Layer 3 (bit value 4), mask layer 1 only. Monitoring on. Attach script and save Coin.tscn. In the Node > Groups editor add Player root to group player. Put a Coin instance and Player instance in World. Manager connects each Coin.collected to its score handler (see C-MANAGER). Signal wiring here is code-only: do not also connect body_entered in editor.

extends Area2D
signal collected(points: int)
@export var points: int = 1
var taken: bool = false
func _ready() -> void:
    body_entered.connect(_on_body_entered)
func _draw() -> void:
    draw_circle(Vector2.ZERO, 10.0, Color.GOLD)
    draw_line(Vector2(-5, 0), Vector2(5, 0), Color.BLACK, 2.0)
func _on_body_entered(body: Node2D) -> void:
    if taken or not body.is_in_group("player"):
        return
    taken = true
    collected.emit(points)
    queue_free()

Checks to run in the editor

• A player touching the coin emits once and removes it.
• A wall or hazard touching the coin does not collect.

Native Godot 4.7.2.stable.official.ed1daf0bf headless compile and representative node-tree/runtime tests passed; see native-qa-results.json. Visual UI, audible output, exports and website submission still need separate checks.

Make an original scalable icon — evidence task

1. 1. Create the SVG icon and replace one pickup’s visual child with Sprite2D.
2. 2. Make an original variation by changing a shape, not only its filename.

Deliverable. Original SVG, project checkpoint and changed-shape note.

Acceptance checks

• VGC-L093-T1. Icon imports and displays without missing-resource errors.
• VGC-L093-T2. Pickup collider and collection rule are unchanged.

Understanding question. What does importing SVG change about collision?

Include a downloadable project ZIP with project.godot, .tscn, .gd and original asset files when code changes. A private, teacher-accessible download link to that ZIP is equivalent. Screenshots or a playthrough do not replace editable source.

If this is still shaky. Use only circles, rectangles and text. Keep physics colliders unchanged while replacing a visual child. Start with the first assigned task and re-run its acceptance test before adding the remaining feature.

Optional extra. Make a second visual theme without changing any gameplay script. Document one changed parameter, your prediction, and the observed effect; optional, not required for completion.

Turn in typed notes and a JPEG, PNG, or WebP screenshot. One https address is stored as text and is not opened, extracted, or run. An MP3, WAV, M4A, MP4, or WebM file up to 4 MB can show a demo. The demo does not replace editable source. Zip and code files are refused. If there is no private link, keep the project on the family computer and review the code in person.
