Walkthrough of Scene

Scene Object	Description
[SnapSaber]	Parent SceneObject used to group all scene items. Contains no components or scripts.
[SnapSaberInstantiator1] / [SnapSaberInstantiator2]	Ghost spawners: all logic lives in the SnapSaberInstantiator script. InstantiatorStartPosition and InstantiatorEndPosition are meshes marking where ghosts spawn and despawn. Try tweaking their transform values!
[Manipulate Example]	The draggable blue box used to destroy ghosts. Contains interactability logic, visual effects (white outline), and holds Text + ScoreText (instructions and score counter).
SnapSaberCollisionHandler	Handles collision detection between the blue cube and ghost targets. Sends hit data to SnapSaberGlobalManager to update the score.
SnapSaberGlobalManager	Central access point for shared features: updating the text component, tracking the score, and more.
