    Hi, this is my first time coding. I need my character to move the x-axis and y-axis. But the code doesn't seem to work (my character doesn't even move)... I have no idea why. I would appreciate it if someone would help me.

    MoveSpeed is zero. Zero times any vector is the zero vector. I suggest making MoveSpeed public (or give it a [SerializeField] attribute), and assigning a value to it in the inspector.

    Thanks. Now I can control the speed, but I still can't move him. :)

    The script you posted is PlayerController. I do not see a PlayerController script on your player. I see a PlayerPlatformer... the filename must precisely match the classname, down to the capitalization and spelling.
