After learning how to watch Spritey our code was like this:

-- Use this function to perform your initial setup
function setup()
    spx = 100 -- Spritey x
    spy = 100 -- Spritey y
    print("Hello World!")
    print("Look at me go!")
    parameter.watch("spx")
    parameter.watch("spy")
end

-- This function gets called once every frame
function draw()
    -- This sets the background color to black
    background(0, 0, 0)
    -- Do your drawing here
    sprite("SpaceCute:Background",374,374)
    spx = spx + 1
    spy = spy + 1
    tint(0, 255, 0, 255)
    sprite("Planet Cute:Character Boy",spx,spy,101/2,171/2)
end

Now add this after the very end

    sprite("Planet Cute:Character Boy",spx,spy,101/2,171/2)
end

function touched(touch)
    spx = touch.x
    spy = touch.y
end

Now play. When you touch the screen, Spritey will move to right where you touched.
