Hi, I couldn't make the sensor work. I copy your programming but the microbit only counts to 14 and stops, then shows game over and I do not know what am I doing wrong.

Hello there, I have followed all of the instructions EXACTLY and the coding part A doesn't seem to be working. After the time is up instead of showing the score if shows the time. I am not sure why.
