Pac Man beginner

Garnuk

I need to make this ellipse respond to my arrow keys and eat small orbs(pac man points) This is what ive done so far

float ang = 0;
float speed = 10;
int posx = 50;
int posy = 300;
int i = 1;

void setup(){
  background (128);
  size(800, 600);
  frameRate(20);
  ellipseMode(RADIUS);
  fill(#FAF312);
  noStroke();
}

void draw() {
  background (128);
  ang = atan2(mouseY - posy, mouseX - posx);
  posx += speed * cos(ang);
  posy += speed * sin(ang);
  translate(posx, posy);
  rotate(ang);
  //arc(50,50,75,75,.51,5.02);

  if (i == 1){
    arc(50, 50, 50, 50, .51, 5.9);
    i = -i;
  } else {
    ellipse(50, 50, 50, 50);
    i = -i;
  }
}

you need to add direction and direction2 to posx and posy (no ang / cos etc. !!!)

     posx=posx+direction ;
     posy=posy+direction2 ;
     translate(posx,posy);
     if(i==1){arc(50,50,50,50,.51,5.9); i=-i;} else{ellipse(50,50,50,50); i=-i;} }

then use this function:

    void keyPressed() {
      if (key == CODED) {
        if (keyCode == LEFT) {
          x = x - 10;
          direction = -1;
          direction2 = 0;
        }
        else if (keyCode == RIGHT) {  
          x = x + 10;
          direction = 1;
          direction2 = 0;
        }
        else if (keyCode == UP) {
          y = y - 10;
          direction = 0;
          direction2 = -1;
        }
        else if (keyCode == DOWN) { 
          y = y + 10;
          direction = 0;
          direction2 = 1;
        }
      }
    }

It keeps telling me unexpected token for posx Can you like the complete code you used to make it work?

No. I am not at home

You need to declare everything and debug it

float ang = 0;
float speed = 10;
int posx = 50;
int posy = 300;
int i = 1;

int direction, direction2;

void setup() {
  background (128);
  size(800, 600);
  //  frameRate(20);
  ellipseMode(RADIUS);
  fill(#FAF312);
  noStroke();
}

void draw() {
  background (128);

  posx=posx+direction ;
  posy=posy+direction2 ;
  translate(posx, posy);

  if (frameCount%20==0)
    i=-i;


  if (i==1) {
    arc(50, 50, 50, 50, .51, 5.9);
  } else {
    arc(50, 50, 50, 50, .2, 6.2);
    //ellipse(50, 50, 50, 50);
  }
}

void keyPressed() {
  if (key == CODED) {
    if (keyCode == LEFT) {

      direction = -1;
      direction2 = 0;
    } else if (keyCode == RIGHT) {  

      direction = 1;
      direction2 = 0;
    } else if (keyCode == UP) {

      direction = 0;
      direction2 = -1;
    } else if (keyCode == DOWN) { 

      direction = 0;
      direction2 = 1;
    }
  }
