In the game a diver will swim through a course to try and reach the end without touching the edges or getting caught by the shark.

Paint a new backdrop with the following:

1. A blue background.
2. A course with lanes for the diver to swim. In our example we use red lines.
3. A finish line. In our example we use a green line.

Add the Diver1 sprite from the sprite library and then drag it to the start of your swim course.

Once you've positioned it at the start, add the following code to set it up for the start of the game.

To control the diver we are going to point her in the direction of your mouse pointer and then make her continually move 2 steps forward. Doing this will make the diver keep on moving towards wherever you put your mouse.

Add the following code to the Diver1 sprite, underneath the go to x: 0 y: 0 block.

We are going to make the shark appear in a random position and then animate it to make it bite. It will keep repeating this over and over, move to a random position and then bite.
