    @body = @world.new_body position: [225, 35] do
      polygon_fixure box: [26, 26],
                     friction: 0.3,
                     density: 1.0

    @player = PhysicsSprite.new file_name: 'player.png', body: @body, type: KKinematicBodyType

    on_touches_ended do |touches, event|
      end_touch = touches.any_object
      end_touch_location = end_touch.location
      puts @hero_gorilla.body.methods.grep /linear/ # no methods found for changing velocity
      #how to move a KKinematicBodyType?
    end

@player is of type KKinematicBodyType because I wanted something that is not affected by gravity but still can be moved.

The player would stay at the bottom of the screen and move horizontally relative to user interaction
