Try to sort out the questions in the given order, but if you hesitate about how to do one question, continue on to the
next questions and then come back to the ones you left blank

For this practical paper, you are going to produce two files.
You will have 15 minutes to complete all tasks
For the first file follow these instructions
1)
2)
3)
4)

Create a folder in the drive D: called 4_test_gamemaker_yourname

Download the supporting file (aula virtual), then open it using the game maker application
Save the file in the folder you created as 4_test_gamemaker_yourname
Complete the following tasks:
a. Create an object called paddle (using the sprite paddle)with the following actions:
i. When pressing the left-arrow key it must move 6 units to the left (bonus, make it
move only if the coordinate x is larger than 30)
ii. When pressing the right-arrow key it must move 6 units to the right (bonus, make it
move only if the coordinate x is smaller than the room_width minus 120)
b. Create an object called brick (using the sprite brick). This object has no actions (you only
have to make sure it will be able to collide, ie, you have to make it solid)
c. Create an object called wall (using the sprite wall). Make it invisible. This object has no
actions (you only have to make sure it well be able to collide, you have to make it solid)

sleep 2000 ms and restart the game
2. make the player lose one life every time the ball is outside the room
3. make the ball jump to start position every time the ball is outside the room
