What is wrong about this script / why cant the player walk up and down?

[CORRIT]

using System.Collections;
using System.Collections.Generic;
using UnityEngine;

public class PlayerMovement : MonoBehaviour
{
public float moveSpeed = 5f;
public Transform movePoint;
public LayerMask WhatStopsMovement;

// Start is called before the first frame update
void Start()
{
    movePoint.parent = null;
}

// Update is called once per frame
void Update()
{
    {
        transform.position = Vector3.MoveTowards(transform.position, movePoint.position, moveSpeed * Time.deltaTime);
        if (Vector3.Distance(transform.position, movePoint.position) <= .0005f)
        {
            if (Mathf.Abs(Input.GetAxisRaw("Horizontal")) == 1f)
            {
                if(!Physics2D.OverlapCircle(movePoint.position + new Vector3(Input.GetAxisRaw("Horizontal"), 0f, 0f), .2f, WhatStopsMovement))
                {
                    movePoint.position += new Vector3(Input.GetAxisRaw("Horizontal"), 0f, 0f);
                }
                
            }

                if (Mathf.Abs(Input.GetAxisRaw("Vertical")) == 1f)
                {
                    if (!Physics2D.OverlapCircle(movePoint.position + new Vector3(Input.GetAxisRaw("Vertical"), 0f, 0f), .2f, WhatStopsMovement))
                    {
                        movePoint.position += new Vector3(Input.GetAxisRaw("Vertical"), 0f, 0f);
                    }

                }
                
           

        }
    }
}

}

movePoint.position += new Vector3(Input.GetAxisRaw(“Horizontal”), 0f, 0f); VS movePoint.position += new Vector3(Input.GetAxisRaw(“Vertical”), 0f, 0f); As you might notice, you are setting the x value of the vector3 on both cases. So you move in the x direction when using up/down and when using left/right. If you want to move forward on the z-axis, you need to assign the vertical input to the z-component of the vector3 and not the x component.
