It is composed of Bricks (for platforms), Coins (for the player to grab) and a certain number of instances of the previous Enemy scene. These will be different, separate enemies, whose behaviour and appearance will be the same as defined in the Enemy scene. Each instance is then considered as a node in the Level scene tree. Of course, you can set different properties for each enemy node (to change its color for example).
