Noob question about wasd movement

Unity Engine
1

So basically I’m just trying to do a basic command to move the player WASD in a top down arcade setting

Here’s my code. Basically whenever I change from moving x to y or y to x it resets my position to the starting position. Do I need to make it update the players position and how would I do so?

	void Update () {
		
		if(Input.GetKey(KeyCode.D)){
				transform.position = new Vector3(transform.position.x + (MovementSpeed), transform.position.y, 0);
			}
		if(Input.GetKey(KeyCode.A)){
				transform.position = new Vector3(transform.position.x - (MovementSpeed), transform.position.y + 0, 0);
			}
		if(Input.GetKey(KeyCode.W)){
				transform.position = new Vector3(transform.position.x, transform.position.y + (MovementSpeed), 0);
			}
		if(Input.GetKey(KeyCode.S)){
				transform.position = new Vector3(transform.position.x, transform.position.y - (MovementSpeed), 0);
			}
	}
}

Thanks for the help
Cheers!

var x : int;
var y : int;
var speed : int

function Update()
{
      if(Input.GetKey(KeyCode.D))
      {
             x++;
      }
       if(Input.GetKey(KeyCode.A))
       {
            x--;
       }
       if(Input.GetKey(KeyCode.W))
       {
            y++;
       }

        if(Input.GetKey(KeyCode.S))
        {
                  y--;
        }

        if(tranform.position.x != x || transform.position.y !=y)
        {
                transform.position = Vector3.MoveTowards(transform.position, Vector3(x,y,0), speed * Time.deltaTime);
         }
}

This should give you the result you need.
