On the new map with arrow-keys is working and does not cross through the lines of
the maze. Since, the color of lines in both the maps is same; there the code will work
in new map now, if not then it means colors in both the maps are different. Now set
the maps color to be the same.
 Now load the new map in the game. for this purpose, when the Pico touches the end
