I want to create a dash attack that can kill enemies. How can I?

I'm making a platformer where to complete a level you have to kill enemies. Yet I am new at this engine and I don't know how to do much. Is there a way to make it so when you click space it will dash in that direction and kill enemies without making it so you can kill the enemies without the dash.

Use a variable to keep track of the dashing state, then use that variable as a condition when colliding with an enemy.

I usually have a Dash Animation.

When the Dash Animation is playing, I change the max speed of the player. Also, I set the max fall speed to 0. Then when the Dash Animation is not playing, I change the max speed and max fall speed back again. To decide how long the Dash is going to last is determined by how long the Dash Animation is playing.

The enemy will be destroyed if the player is overlapping the enemy AND the Dash Animation is playing.

You can do this (Dash) in many different ways but this works for me. I made a quick example for you.
