Hello!

This is my first post on these forums.  I am trying to make a very simple videogame called "Pro Sreaker".

Here is my code so far:

import processing.opengl.*;

float x;
float y;
 

void setup() {
  size(300, 300, OPENGL);
  fill(227, 168, 109);
}

void draw() {
  lights();
  background(50);
  x = map(mouseX, 0, 300, -300, 300);
  y = map(mouseY, 0, 300, -300, 300);
 
  // Change height of the camera with mouseY
  camera(x, y, 220.0, // eyeX, eyeY, eyeZ
         0.0, 0.0, 0.0, // centerX, centerY, centerZ
         0.0, 1.0, 0.0); // upX, upY, upZ
 
  noStroke();
pushMatrix();
  translate(-0, -50, 0);
 
  box(30);
  translate(0, 30, 0);
  box(20,35,20);
  popMatrix();
  pushMatrix();
  translate(-15,-30,0);
  rotateZ (radians(30));
  box(30,5,5);
  popMatrix();
  pushMatrix();
  translate(15,-30,0);
  rotateZ (radians(-30));
  box(30,5,5);
  popMatrix();
  pushMatrix();
  translate(-7,5,0);
  rotateX(radians(30));
  box(5,30,5);
  popMatrix();
  pushMatrix();
  translate(7,5,0);
  rotateX(radians(-30));
  box(5,30,5);
  popMatrix();
  pushMatrix();
  translate(0,0,10);
  rotateX(radians(-20));
  box(3,3,5);
  popMatrix();
  stroke(255);
 
}


I am trying to figure out how to control his movements with a WSAD keyboard configuration.  I've tried making a variable for the Z position to make him advance in space, but the model doesn't move correctly that way.  It will advance in space as long as the W key is pressed, but when the key is released the model returns to the origin point.

Any help or advice on this would be REALLY appreciated.
