Hi I am working on the Create Video Games with Phaser.JS capstone, FastFoodie and hit a very early snag. I feel like I have done everything correctly up to step 7 however, step 7 says if I have done everything correctly then I should see my customers lining up, yet they are still in the top left corner of the screen when I start the game. Am I doing something wrong or did I miss something small that is now tripping me up?
Any help or guidance would be greatly appreciated. Thank you!
