LO: To create a sprite with movement.

Last time we created our own scrolling background like the one the bird flies through. The

bird has to be kept in the air by continually tapping a key otherwise it will drop to the

ground. In this lesson we are going to create our flying sprite and give it movement to make

it move up and down.

We are continuing our project based on the

game ‘Flappy Bird’.

Return to the cat sprite as we are

going to create some code to make

it move.

Drag and drop in these

codes from events, control

• forever

• change y by . . .

Change this number to -2.

Negative numbers will make

the cat go down.

Now drag and drop in these
