Challenge Task 2 of 2: JS

Instruction says to change command on line 25 using the string 'platform2' instead of just 'platform'. I did that and checked the work and it just says "Oops! It looks like Task 1 is no longer passing.

game.js
let game;
let player;
let platforms;
let badges;
let coins;
let cursors;
let jumpButton;
let text;
let winningMessage;
let won = false;

function createCoins() {
    coins = game.add.physicsGroup();

    coinCreate(375, 100, 'coin');

}

    platforms = game.add.physicsGroup();

    platforms.create(300, 200, 'platform');
    platform2.create(400, 450, 'platform');

    platforms.setAll('body.immovable', true);

function createBadge() {
    badges = game.add.physicsGroup();

    const badge = badges.create(550, 450, 'badge');
    badge.animations.add('spin');
    badge.animations.play('spin', 10, true);

    const coin = coins.create(left, top, coinImage);
    coin.animations.add('spin');

It wants you to rename the string containing 'platform' to 'platform2'. The variable should still be called platforms.
