When I run my code and I move my turtle up with the space bar, all the obstacles, that are supposed to be moving, stop moving. What causes the problem and how do I fix this?
I have no idea what can cause this problem and I've tried Googling but can't find anything. Since this is my first week of trying out Python, or programming in general, I have no idea what I've done wrong.

One problem is that your horizontal motion is controlled, out of sync, by a while True: loop but your vertical motion is controlled, in sync, by a keyboard event. We need to get both motions in sync using events via replacing your while True: with an ontimer() event. Here's my complete rework of your code along these lines with a few simplifications for example purposes:

player.speed('fastest')
