Thread: Graphics, Canvas Unreachable statement

Hey, I am trying to follow this tutorial: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=dwu4DAoac-I (or you can look on yt yourself, TheChernoProject: game programming episode 6), but perhaps I made an error along the way, since it says unreachable statement at this part:

Graphics g = bs.getDrawGraphics();

If anyone has some time to spare to enlighten me as to what I did wrong, I would very much appreciate it.

Thank you in advance!




Full code:

import java.awt.Canvas;
import java.awt.Color;
import java.awt.Dimension;
import java.awt.Graphics;
import java.awt.image.BufferStrategy;
 
import javax.swing.JFrame;
 
public class Game extends Canvas implements Runnable {
    private static final long serialVersionUID = 1L;
    public static int width = 300;
    public static int height = width / 16 * 9;
    public static int scale = 3;
 
    private Thread thread;
    private JFrame frame;
    private boolean running = false;
 
    public Game() {
        Dimension size = new Dimension (width * scale, height * scale);
        setPreferredSize(size);
 
        frame = new JFrame();
    }
 
    public synchronized void start () {
        running = true;
        thread = new Thread (this,"Game");
        thread.start ();
    }     
 
    public synchronized void stop() {
        running = false;
        try {
            thread.join();  
        } catch (InterruptedException e) {
            e.printStackTrace();
        }
    }  
 
    public void run() {
        while (running) {
            update();
            render();
        }
    }
 
    public void update () {
    }
 
    public void render() { 
        BufferStrategy bs = getBufferStrategy();
        if (bs == null); {
            createBufferStrategy(3);
            return;
        }
        Graphics g = bs.getDrawGraphics();
        g.setColor(Color.BLACK);
        g.fillRect(0, 0, getWidth(), getHeight());
        g.dispose();
        bs.show();
 
    } 
 
    public static void main (String[] args) {
        Game game = new Game();
        game.frame.setResizable(true);
        game.frame.add(game);
        game.frame.pack();
        game.frame.setDefaultCloseOperation(JFrame.EXIT_ON_CLOSE);
        game.frame.setVisible(true);
 
        game.start();
    }
 
}

Feel so stupid now :0

Love you
