One character moves when you tap the arrow keys on the screen
When the character that moves bumps the other character they hide, move somewhere while they are hidden, wait a bit, and then reappear
Done? Can you do one of the following:
Make your character that disappears move all the time so they are harder to catch. They still need to do what they did before.
Add an "enemy" that appears and hides over and over. If your character that moves bump the enemy they disappear not the enemy. Hint: The enemy will need to send a message (a different color than the arrow keys) when it is bumped and the character that moves needs to receive it and hide.
