Hey! I've been at this for a few hours now but I'm stumped

How do I implement it so that as I reach the edge of the map it endlessly loops back around? I'm trying to do this with a parallax effect on 3 (or maybe eventually 4) layers but I keep ending up walking into blank space

from launch, the easiest way to see this is to just try to walk backwards

only one of the layers is fully drawn but It's not looping correctly at all. some things are commented out as I was debugging but as of rn I'm lost

thanks in advance for any help

A prototype I whipped up in two hours, my first completed "game", now I just want to polish it a bit, adding in some fade-ins or something for the reply-reveals
Please enjoy
EDIT

broken platformer movement

EDIT_2
lol nevermind I figured it out. I'm so happy about this

EDIT!

so I finally came back to this and got some of the fixes implemented, but now every time my character collides with a surface they teleport back to the top of the screen. Can someone point out what I'm doing wrong?

Thanks again

original post:

I'm stuck again, this time on why my movement isn't working correctly.

When I try to go left, all movement and physics stop. when I try to go right, I "jump" and then fall through the floor.
additionally, the jump "boost" only works when also moving right

i'm following along with the NerdyTeachers YouTube tutorial, but I've rewatched the vids I think would make sense for these issues at least 3x each and I'm still stuck
