Scratch

OK, this might work; (sorry, it's a little complex - maybe too complex)

when gf clicked //x velocity is "for this sprite only"
forever
set [enemy count v] to [0] //"for this sprite only"
repeat (length of [enemies v]) //basically check if I'm touching any enemies...
change [enemy count v] by [1]
if <touching (item (enemy count) of [enemies v])?>
if <(x position) < ([x position v] of [player v])> //if I'm on the left of the enemy
if <(x velocity) > [0]> //and I'm moving right (towards it)
set [x velocity v] to [0] // stop
end
else //on my right?
if <(x velocity) > [0]> //and I'm moving left (towards it)
set [x velocity v] to [0] // stop
end
end
end
end
if <(x position) < ([x position v] of [player v])> //if I'm on the left of the player
set [x velocity v] to [4] // set my x speed to 4 (change it to adjust speed)
else
set [x velocity v] to [-4] //set my x speed to -4 (moves left)
end
change x by (x velocity) //change x by x speed

add [SPRITE NAME OF ENEMY HERE] to [enemies v]

There are no lists of sprites, are there? So you can't script: touching variable.

*Facepalm* Your supposed to add all the enemy sprite names to the list. It's kinda like a "Sprite Class". If you see what I mean...

Also, mine makes enemies "bump" into each other.

repeat until <touching [player v]?>
   point towards [player v]
   move (0.5) steps //change this to whatever speed you want
end

Then duplicate the sprite many times, make them appear from different places.
Scratch on!

It moves left/right. What if the enemies are a different height to the player?

if <(x position) < ([x position v] of [player v])> //if the player's on my right
wait (0.5) secs //makes it more realistic, if you jump over something, it will take about 0.5 secs to realise what's
point in direction [90 v] //happened (from above)
else
wait (0.5) secs
point in direction [-90 v]

Draw enemy

when gf clicked
set (side) to (pick random 0 to 1)
if <(side) = 1>
   set x to [240]
else
set x to [-240] 
end
forever
   glide (x position of player) for (speed) seconds
