  • x, how far up or down the sprite is on the screen (0-4)
  • y, how far left or right the sprite is on the screen (0-4)
  • direction, which way the sprite is pointing (this works the same way as the turn function)
  • brightness, how bright the LED sprite is (this works the same way as the brightness function)
  • blink, how fast the sprite is blinking (the bigger the number is, the faster the sprite is blinking)
