Once you have your scene created, you can change the code to make your objects move, interact, collide, and more! Let's see how this works with two objects.

Notice you can select an object, and you create code for that particular object. Remember in Scratch where each object had their code section and then in App Lab they shared? Here, each object has its code, but they share myFirstMethod. Let's take a look at how to make the objects do something.

Edit Code

Once we have added code, we press Run, and we can see what the code does.

Did they both say "hello"? Good!

First Method

We can also make the objects move, and instead of having multiple move commands, we can add more attributes or options to make them move the way we want. When you add a ,move command onto the screen, it will ask which way to proceed. If you select Left, which way will the player move? Did you figure this out? Why? Watch the video, and I will explain it.
