  public float moveSpeed;
 
 void update{
  if (Input.GetKey(KeyCode.D))
         {
 GetComponent<Rigidbody2D>().velocity = new Vector2(moveSpeed, GetComponent<Rigidbody2D>().velocity.y);
 }
  if (Input.GetKey(KeyCode.A))
         {
 GetComponent<Rigidbody2D>().velocity = new Vector2(- moveSpeed, GetComponent<Rigidbody2D>().velocity.y);
 }
 
 }

it's very basic but should get the job done

create a script, attach to player and set the value of movespeed in inspector``
