Apologies for the newb question.
I’m trying to get a turtle sprite to chase a falling algae sprite utilising Pygame’s inbuilt functionality. Have spent many hours reviewing questions and answers and suspect I’m missing some foundational logic as a beginner. Below is full code pared down to essential lines only. Please help!
No errors received, yet turtle sprite does not move.
