In this Godot 4 Lesson I cover I cover how to construct a simple (cube) player object that you can control with keyboard arrow keys & make jump with the space bar! We'll create this player CharacterBody3D physics object a reusable scene, add it to the game level, and attach a script file with directional movement & jumping gd script. We'll also organize our scene tree a little better by creating a branch / folder for all the 'rigid body' falling block scene instance nodes.
