This happens when p5.js can't find these functions in the global scope.\n\nTo solve this, we need to use instance mode in p5.js. This involves creating a new instance of p5 and passing it a function that defines our sketch. Here's what the code would look like:\n\n```javascript\nconst sketch = (p) => {\n let player;\n\n p.setup = function() {\n p.createCanvas(p.windowWidth, p.windowHeight);\n p.background(220);\n\n player = {\n x: 0,\n y: 0,\n size: 50\n };\n };\n\n p.draw = function() {\n p.background(220);\n p.rect(player.x, player.y, player.size, player.size);\n console.log('Game is working');\n };\n};\n\nnew p5(sketch);\n```\n\n- Here, we pass a function (that takes the p5 instance as an argument `p`) to the p5 constructor. This function is where we define our sketch. \n- Inside this function, the sketch is constructed using methods of the p5 instance `p`, which is why we use `p.createCanvas`, `p.background`, and `p.rect` instead of calling these functions directly.\n- This method ensures that the `setup` and `draw` functions are correctly scoped and should resolve issues with them not being called.","project_id":516,"created_at":"2024-02-01T20:46:28.453646Z","output_tokens":null,"sender":"ai","code_id":33052,"deleted":0,"input_tokens":null,"id":18956}],"assets":[{"project_id":516,"creator":null,"cloudinary_id":"q0sed5wbx8q3dc7corhv","deleted":false,"id":874,"created_at":"2024-02-01T20:23:03.911767Z","name":"PlaceholderPlayer","resource_type":"image","tags":null}],"messages_sent":9,"comments":[],"steps":[{"title":"Player Sprites","instruction":"Add visual elements for the player characters.","created_at":"2024-02-01T20:18:25.119431","project_id":516,"complete":false,"step_number":0,"updated_at":"2024-02-01T20:18:25.119432","id":2943},{"title":"User Input and Movement Controls","instruction":"Implement controls for player movement and actions.","created_at":"2024-02-01T20:18:25.119486","project_id":516,"complete":false,"step_number":1,"updated_at":"2024-02-01T20:18:25.119487","id":2944},{"title":"Dodge Feature","instruction":"Allow players to perform quick dodges to avoid incoming attacks.","created_at":"2024-02-01T20:18:25.119528","project_id":516,"complete":false,"step_number":2,"updated_at":"2024-02-01T20:18:25.119529","id":2945},{"title":"Dash Feature","instruction":"Implement a dash ability for swift movements across the screen.","created_at":"2024-02-01T20:18:25.119568","project_id":516,"complete":false,"step_number":3,"updated_at":"2024-02-01T20:18:25.119568","id":2946},{"title":"Game Logic","instruction":"Incorporate scoring, collision detection, and timers.","created_at":"2024-02-01T20:18:25.119607","project_id":516,"complete":false,"step_number":4,"updated_at":"2024-02-01T20:18:25.119608","id":2947},{"title":"Audio Feedback","instruction":"Add exciting sound effects for a more immersive experience.","created_at":"2024-02-01T20:18:25.119647","project_id":516,"complete":false,"step_number":5,"updated_at":"2024-02-01T20:18:25.119648","id":2948},{"title":"Visual Effects","instruction":"Enhance the game with visual effects for dodges and dashes.","created_at":"2024-02-01T20:18:25.119686","project_id":516,"complete":false,"step_number":6,"updated_at":"2024-02-01T20:18:25.119686","id":2949},{"title":"Multiplayer Mode","instruction":"Create an option for players to compete against each other.","created_at":"2024-02-01T20:18:25.119758","project_id":516,"complete":false,"step_number":7,"updated_at":"2024-02-01T20:18:25.119759","id":2950},{"title":"Leaderboard","instruction":"Implement a leaderboard to track high scores and achievements.","created_at":"2024-02-01T20:18:25.119798","project_id":516,"complete":false,"step_number":8,"updated_at":"2024-02-01T20:18:25.119799","id":2951}]}
