So I've been wondering how to use the pygame groupcollide. And I'm utterly stumped right now. As I am using collide_rect and it is fine. But for groupcollide I can't seem to figure out how to call the properties of the item inside of that group. And I can't do collide rect because there's going to be a lot of bullets.
def check_blast_collisions(player,bullet):
hits = pg.sprite.groupcollide(player,bullet,False,True)
for hit in hits:
print (hits)
if hit.vx == 20:
player.vx += 40
elif hit.vx == -20:
player.vx += -40
Here is a snippet of where I'm trying to use groupcollide. After I made this function, the bullets don't even show up. (The bullets are supposed to be called blasts but I forgot about it in this function.)

Here is the entire code. Any help is much appreciated. Thanks.
