trying my best to not be overcome with ScopeCrepe, another thing was issues with the background music, i use godot ( I'm new to it btw, my old engine was UNITY) in my last game this wasn't an issue, but when transitioning from one level to the next, the audio would not replay, or loop. this drove me nuts and i gave up on it in the end.

Nice, welcome to Godot! Your problem could be with the import settings, you can choose whether or not it loops there! (Ps this is also useful for importing pixel art and not having it be blurry)

Let me know if this helps!

also, you can take current music position from AudioSource.get_playback_position(), put that into a global variable, and then use AudioSource.play( global.music_position ) to keep the same music going thru scene changes

Or you could make an auto load singleton, and it will always keep playing, even after switching scenes. You could also use that as an audio manager/library (that’s what I do). I don’t know if this is recommended, but it’s an easy way to manage audio.
