Kids who animate with Scratch master sounds, timing, variables, complex code sequences, and so much more. We love how Scratcher jobicodes brought these concepts together for their project “Shao is Ready for Battle!”

Scratch projects don’t always feature a big punchline or fast-paced gameplay. We’re enjoying relaxing under a procedurally-generated canopy of stars and roasting marshmallows in this beautiful ode to camping by Scratcher Penthusiast! 🏕️

I learned about the HUD while learning how to make my own games with @MIT's @scratch ecosystem.
Mini shill, but the projects by other people there gave me so much foundational knowledge for me being able to read video game files while bug exploiting, and I'm so thankful.

I have a bad habit of clowning on games that are like “press A to jump” or “move right stick to move camera” forgetting that legitimately that game might be someone’s first
but actually when the hell did I learn what a HUD was? Like was it explained in instruction manuals?

Adding physics to a Scratch project can help kids understand the utility of math and science concepts. In this game, players carefully balance Scratch Cat on a high wire. Behind the scenes, Scratch blocks determine the difference between a close call and a tumultuous tumble. 🙀
