Hello i am new to python and i am getting increasingly worried. I have a deadline on tuesday and i have to make a game in python. I have tried and tried but i am useless at python.
Therefore i have decided to finish off a piece of code that my lecturer gave to me. However it is making my head hurt i am so confused. Can anybody help me display a character and get it to move?
