How to add levels to my top-down game?

Hello everyone! I am new to coding and I would like to ask how to add levels to my top-down game. I have some cleaning up to do and minor changes but I feel ready to move to the next big step which is levels for me. I am scared of breaking my code and this is a big task for me so help is much apriciated. I have made back ups for the file but still, I don't want anything to go wrong. This is my first ever big project.

Here is a link to the game in question: https://scratch.mit.edu/projects/1314681536

I think its as simple as just moving the player to the start and having the obstacles and stuff be set to the current level costume. The collectables should probably have a list to read their positions from.

Should the obstacles and enemies have a list system for location too?

I would use hard set positions for each item in each level, either in a list or in actual <sb> go to (x) (y) </sb> blocks. then, store what level it is in a variable, <sb> (level) </sb> and have each sprite go to the right place each level.
