Hi,

Tomorrow I am going to teach my class the paddle game (and introduce functions). I have built the code but the paddles will only work together with one set of buttons. I have been through the tutorial multiple times trying to find my error. Have I missed something or is this not really a 2player?

Any help would be much appreciated.

PS My class are absolutely loving arcade. We are working through the tutorials and I use each one to introduce an element of code. I then use the makecode youtube video lessons to show the children cool ways to mod their games. This has been a massive help during lockdown especially as all my teaching has been remotely via Teams.

Here’s the fix:

In the move right paddle function, see that it uses a slightly different movesprite block – it’s below the original block you had.

Also, thanks for your kind words, we really appreciate it! 🙂

Hey, I’m new to Arcade and I’m sorry to reactivate that post, but I have the same problem and I can’t seem to find the solution.  
Here is my code: [https://arcade.makecode.com/S83339-11886-68197-66849](https://arcade.makecode.com/S83339-11886-68197-66849)  
Thanks in advance.
