Side-scrolling Platformer scripts/animations?

I am currently working on a side-scrolling platformer with Lua, and I have no idea how to start on this project. Any help/scripts would be much appreciated on this! Here's what I need:

1) Scripts to let it scroll left or right
2) Scripts for collision and physics
3) How do I make animations for a character including, but not limited to: jumping, walking, using an object

And any other things that I might need while making this. Anyone who helps out in the long run will recieve a spot on the credits.

Thanks!

1) You can easily do this with love.graphics.translate
2) HardonCollider, Bump
3) AnAL, anim8

Other libraries can be found on the wiki here.

Thanks so much! If you want to help with this long term as a consultant, I guess it would be, you can pm me your email/skype and I'll put your name on the credits!
