 using System.Collections;
 using System.Collections.Generic;
 using UnityEngine;
 
 public class testCamera : MonoBehaviour   //Camera Script
 {
     private testInput _testInputSc; 
     void Start()
     {
         _testInputSc = FindObjectOfType<testInput>();
     }
 
     void Update()
     {
         Move();
     }
 
     void Move() //Move function
     {
         if (!_testInputSc._gameIsPaused)
         {
             transform.Translate(new Vector3(1,0,0)); 
         }
        
     }
 
 }

CameraScript

 using System.Collections;
 using System.Collections.Generic;
 using UnityEngine;
 
 public class testInput : MonoBehaviour  //The input script
 {
     public bool _gameIsPaused = false;    
     void Update() 
     {
         _gamePause();
     }
 
     private void _gamePause()
     {
         if (Input.GetKeyDown(KeyCode.Escape))
         {
             _gameIsPaused = true;
         }
         else if (Input.GetKeyDown(KeyCode.Space))
         {
             _gameIsPaused = false;
         }
     }
 }

Input script. You can do it with such a simple method.

Or can you use just this function.But this stopping all functions. private void _gamePause() { if (Input.GetKeyDown(KeyCode.Escape)) { Time.timeScale = 0; } else if (Input.GetKeyDown(KeyCode.Space)) { Time.timeScale =1; } } }
