This class will handle random movement and sprite flipping based on the direction. We'll also set up a system to spawn new enemies at random intervals and positions.\n\nHere's how we can implement it:\n\n### JavaScript (script.js)\n\nFirst, let's declare a global variable to hold our enemies.\n\n```javascript\nlet enemies = [];\n```\n\nNow, let's create the `Enemy` class.\n\n```javascript\nclass Enemy {\n constructor(x, y) {\n this.x = x;\n this.y = y;\n this.direction = p5.Vector.random2D(); // Random initial direction\n this.speed = 2;\n this.timer = 0;\n this.changeDirectionTime = random(0.5, 2.5) * 60; // Convert seconds to frames\n }\n\n update() {\n // Move the enemy\n this.x += this.direction.x * this.speed;\n this.y += this.direction.y * this.speed;\n\n // Check if it's time to change direction\n this.timer++;\n if (this.timer > this.changeDirectionTime) {\n this.direction = p5.Vector.random2D();\n this.timer = 0;\n this.changeDirectionTime = random(0.5, 2.5) * 60;\n }\n }\n\n display() {\n push();\n translate(this.x, this.y);\n\n // Flip sprite based on direction\n if (this.direction.x < 0) {\n scale(-1, 1);\n }\n\n image(yeti, -yeti.width / 2, -yeti.height / 2); // Center the sprite\n pop();\n }\n}\n```\n\nNext, let's modify the `setup` function to add an initial enemy and create a function to spawn new enemies periodically.\n\n```javascript\nfunction setup() {\n createCanvas(windowWidth, windowHeight);\n background(135, 206, 235);\n\n // Add initial enemy\n enemies.push(new Enemy(random(width), random(height)));\n\n // Spawn a new enemy every few seconds\n setInterval(() => {\n enemies.push(new Enemy(random(width), random(height)));\n }, random(2000, 5000)); // 2-5 seconds\n}\n```\n\nFinally, update the `draw` function to update and display all the enemies.\n\n```javascript\nfunction draw() {\n background(135, 206, 235); // Clear the background each frame\n\n // Update and display all enemies\n for (let enemy of enemies) {\n enemy.update();\n enemy.display();\n }\n}\n```\n\n### Explanation\n\n- **Global Variables**: We use an array `enemies` to store all the enemy instances.\n- **Enemy Class**: \n - The `constructor` initializes the enemy's position, direction, speed, and timers.\n - The `update` method handles movement and changes the direction when the timer expires.\n - The `display` method draws the yeti sprite and flips it based on the movement direction.\n- **Setup and Draw Functions**: \n - The `setup` function initializes the canvas and starts spawning enemies at intervals.\n - The `draw` function continuously updates and draws each enemy on the canvas.\n\nReplace any existing functions with the new code provided, and add the new code where instructed.

You can do this by adjusting the `display` method within the `Enemy` class.

Next, let's update the `draw` function to tile the stone background. We'll create a nested loop to draw the stone image across the canvas.\n\nHere's the updated `draw` function:\n\n```javascript\nfunction draw() {\n // Tile the background with the stone asset\n for (let x = 0; x < width; x += stone.width) {\n for (let y = 0; y < height; y += stone.height) {\n image(stone, x, y); // Draw the stone image at (x, y)\n }\n }\n\n // Update and display all enemies\n for (let enemy of enemies) {\n enemy.update();\n enemy.display();\n }\n}\n```\n\n### Explanation\n\n- **Nested Loop**: The outer loop iterates over the width of the canvas, and the inner loop iterates over the height. The step size for both loops is the width and height of the stone image, respectively.\n- **Image Drawing**: The `image(stone, x, y);` line draws the stone image at the (x, y) position for each iteration, effectively tiling the entire canvas.\n\nReplace the existing `draw` function with the updated code.

The `move` method checks for key presses and adjusts the position accordingly. The player can run faster when the Space Bar is pressed.\n- **Player Initialization**: The player is initialized in the `setup` function, starting in the center of the canvas.\n- **Movement and Display**: The `draw` function continuously updates the player’s position and displays the player sprite.\n\nReplace the relevant sections with the new code provided. Your player (the fox) will now move around the screen and flip based on the movement direction, along with animating using the `fox_run` asset.
