Techie Club 1/7/15: More Scratch!
Today in Techie Club, we did more Scratch! The game I’m working on is a game where you are a submarine and you are trying to destroy missiles. I’m not very far along yet, but it’s going pretty well. I admit there are a few bugs and glitches right now, even in the early stages, but when it’s finished I think it should work pretty well. Basically, it’s programmed so when the missiles touch the sub or the ground, the game ends, but when they touch the torpedoes that you fire, it disables them. I’m planning to make it so that there are several levels and each level has more and more missiles. It uses a lot of blocks that I haven’t used before, so it’s interesting to see what I can do. I few blocks I used are broadcast message, which tells another sprite (character) what to do, and a block that sends a message if it is touching a certain sprite. If you didn’t know already, blocks are the things that make scratch programs work.
