You're going to make your character jump across the Stage. Don't worry about falling in yet.

Choose: Add a jumping sound that suits your character.

Now make your character jump across the Stage by pressing the space bar on a keyboard or tapping the Stage on a tablet.

Test: Tap the space bar or Stage to make your character jump across the Stage to the End platform.

Adjust your code until the character jumps across the Stage in three or four jumps.

Tip: It's really common for games to have a forever block with if statements inside it to do something when important conditions become true

Debug:

If you have a bug that we haven't covered here, then let us know in the feedback. If you fixed the bug yourself (well done!), let us know that too.

Tip: If you're stuck, try reading your code out loud or in your head to make sure it says what you think it does. You might find the bug.
