Treehouse TeacherThis is going to be very hard to debug without seeing your code. There's a "Markdown Cheatsheet" link at the bottom of this page 
But the "unexpected" error generally indicates that something above that line wasn't closed off properly. I'd look up a line or two and make sure that all open parentheses and closed parentheses match. Hope you find it!

Treehouse TeacherHi there! You've declared this:
[SerializeField]
private BirdMovement birdmovement;
But then you try to access it with this line:
// Allow the bird to move
birdMovement.enabled = true;
Note the difference in capitalization of birdmovement vs birdMovement. My suggestion is to change the declaration to this:
[SerializeField]
private BirdMovement birdMovement;
Hope this helps!

Treehouse TeacherThe line above is missing a semicolon
playerMovement.enabled = false
This should be:
playerMovement.enabled = false;
Hope this fixes it!

4,675 Pointsthanks that is solved ,but now it shows this
Assets/Scripts/GameState.cs(77,31): error CS1061: Type UnityEngine.UI.Text' does not contain a definition forColor' and no extension method Color' of typeUnityEngine.UI.Text' could be found (are you missing a using directive or an assembly reference?)

Treehouse TeacherThis one, I really don't know. Because if I copy/paste that code into MonoDevelop it shows no errors and no warnings.
