kEmptyBlock=' '   #DEFAULT: ' ' - air
kCoinBlock='$'    #DEFAULT: '$' - it's not a platformer unless you can increment a variable
kSpikeBlock='^'   #DEFAULT: '^' - instant death when touching this
kWinBlock='%'     #DEFAULT: '%' - instant win when touching this
kUpVelocity=-25   #DEFAULT: -25 - could be too high
kLeftVelocity=-5  #DEFAULT: -5
kRightVelocity=5  #DEFAULT: 5
kGravityFPSMod=5  #DEFAULT: 5 - provides a delay when falling
