STEP 10: If we call our function inside the interval event, it will make blocks each time the interval event runs!
- Drag out Function Call so that it's indented in the interval event.
- Change my_function to make_blocks to call the function we just defined.
- At the moment, we won't see the function do anything because it doesn't have any code in it.
- Click Run, Submit, and Next to move on and add code to our function!

# Program variables (DON'T DELETE!!!)
block_speed = -6 # controls how fast the pipes move across the stage
block_gap = 200 # controls the space between the top and bottom of each pipe
block_interval = 1 # controls how often a new pipe appears
gravity = 8 # controls how fast the sprite falls
flappiness = 5 # controls how much the sprite moves up
# Store and display score
score = 0
score_text = codesters.Text("Score: " + str(score), 100, 200, "yellow")
