The following, quite large, block of code also adds a gravestone sprite for when the player gets squashed, an axe sprite to chop with, and a log sprite that can whiz away each time the player chops.

Furthermore, we add some extra variables for the spriteLog object, including logSpeedX, logSpeedY, and logActive, to store how fast the log will move and whether it is currently moving. The spriteAxe also has two related float constant variables to remember where the ideal pixel position is on both the left and the right.

Add the following block of code just before the while(window.isOpen()) code, like we have done so often before. Note that all of the code in the following block is new, not...
