☀️Update: Spline has improved a lot since we made this tutorial, and now, a couple of new features will enable you to follow this tutorial much faster.

1. The new Key Press event combines the Key Up and Key Down, so you only need to define it once. 2. With the new Components feature, you can duplicate an object and maintain the interactions on the duplicate (so you only need to build one Key).
