For some reason, my player character keeps starting to slowly rotate whenever it hits a wall. It doesn’t have any bounce value so why is it doing this? Please help!

I pressed the left button to see the effect you’re describing. I agree that it shouldn’t rotate when it’s set to fixed rotation and no bounce. I haven’t used the Canvas much so maybe I’m missing something but I would recommend filing a [bug report]([https://docs.thunkable.com/bugs-and-feature-requests](https://docs.thunkable.com/bugs-and-feature-requests) and include a link to the project and a link to this topic.

May be because of stage gravity

Even when I turned off all gravity values of every sprite, It still has this problem.
