What is it you are trying to achieve? I want to create a game for my final project where the sprite stays in the middle of the screen, and when the user clicks an arrow, it moves the screen instead of the sprite, yet the sprite moving animations still take place |

Do you know how to do the opposite, make a sprite move and everything else stay stationary? |

yes, with KEY_UP_ARROW (or anything else) and a couple of variables,, I can move my sprites.. However I am not sure i know how to make the screen move if it reaches the edge of the screen either. |

Don't think of it as moving the screen, think of it as moving every image on the screen except the character. All of those images, rectangles, circles, whatever, all have x and y coordinates that you can change just like your character does. |

I think i understand, so say, each time key=true and chars=KEY_UP_ARROW all things on screen are (spritey+5)? |

Sure, though instead of 'spritey', you might try a more descriptive variable name, like 'backgroundX'. |

any idea on how I can make the background move as your character moves though? |
