   I tried this tutorial and it does not work as expected. The computer only sometimes moves and the scores are not updated in their respective labels, rather there is one single score and it gets updated in the middle of the court and then disappears.

   Here is my code:

   #import “iTennisViewController.h”

   #define kGameStateRunning 1
   #define kGameStatePaused 2

   #define kBallSpeedX 20
   #define kBallSpeedY 30
   #define kCompMoveSpeed 30

   #define kScoreToWin 5

   @implementation iTennisViewController

   @synthesize ball,raquet_yellow,raquet_green,player_score,computer_score,gameState,ballVelocity,tapToBegin;

   /*
   // The designated initializer. Override to perform setup that is required before the view is loaded.

   }
