Hi @Jacob_Cain and welcome,

Your scene setup is quite ok, the reason it isn’t working is because you are using entity.translateLocal() to move your player.

Since the player is a rigid body and part of the physics simulation you have to move it using:

  1. Forces/impulses
  2. Or by setting its linear/angular velocity directly

Here are two examples:
