Then, create the character, e.g. a small, black circle, and the finish line, e.g. a flag with black and white rectangles.

For the character, place these scripts: when [right arrow v] key pressed change x by (10) if on edge, bounce // This means that if it goes to the edge of the screen, it bounces back

when [left arrow v] key pressed change x by (-10) if on edge, bounce

when [up arrow v] key pressed change y by (10) if on edge, bounce

when [down arrow v] key pressed change y by (-10) if on edge, bounce
