Do you know how to draw a background? Basically you just draw a background that's bigger than the screen, and include some kind of offset. For instance, if you move 5 to the right, you add 5 to the x offset. Them you draw the image at whatever position you want it at minus the offset. If your image is normally at 0, 0 when you start, you'll now draw it at -5, 0.

But how am I suppose to make the ground move?

Everything you draw that needs to move will need a variable to store an X value (an array might be useful here). Then you just need to change all of those values to move them.

Here's a small example, I documented it. you are the red ball, with a grey building in the background:

Turing:

setscreen("offscreenonly") var input : array char of boolean var offsetx, x, y : int := 0 x := 50 y := 20 loop     Input.KeyDown(input)     % Move left if you press a     if input ('a') then         x -= 2         % If player gets close to the edge, move screen instead of player         if x < 50 then             x := 50             offsetx += 1         end if     % Move right if you press d     elsif input ('d') then         x += 2         % If player gets close to the edge, move screen instead of player         if x > maxx-50 then             x := maxx-50             offsetx -= 1         end if     end if         % Player Drawing     Draw.FillOval(x, y, 10, 10, 12)     % Building Drawing     Draw.FillBox(100 + offsetx, 50, 150+offsetx, 200, grey)         View.Update     delay(2)     cls end loop

Pretty simple. In my example I made it so the background only moves once you're close enough to an edge. You can make it so it only ever moves the background, whatever you want.

In any case, this is the basic concept. What I'm doing is storing a value offsetx which tells me how far off I'd like to draw the background.
