EXTEND: Great job! Now let's customize the game by changing some of the program variables.
- Is the game too easy? Try changing block_interval from 1 to 0.75.
- Too hard? Try changing the block_speed from -6 to -3.
- Maybe you need a new sprite? Try changing the dino into a Circle sprite. Circles don't have tails!
- Try customizing the other program variables like flappiness and block_gap.

# 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")
