Thank you all for being there this last session. I hope you still like Scratch, as we have been doing some tricky stuff today! At the start we shortly looked back at what we have done. The main things things to keep in mind are:
Part 1: Santa Quiz
Looking forward what to do this last session, I had a bunch of things listed:
That is a good size list but we had used a lot of them before already. The most important here is using Lists!
Lists (and variables) are used to remember things. You can use those lists in your game, for example as a quiz. So as an example I showed you a quiz game. This game has all the items of the above list, even Santa moving across the screen, dropping a present for each correct answer!
This was a full game, with all the things to make it look good. However, the most important part -the quiz- is shown below:
This will run the quiz for you. Make a list of questions and a list of answers, and off you go! :-)
We worked on this piece by piece until the break.
Part 2: A Scratch Christmas Card
After the break we changed and decided to look into making a Christmas Card. We wanted to make it look as if the Christmas Card was folded closed, and opened up after pressing the green flag. After some talking how to show this, we made 2 sprites: the front of the card (that you see when closed) and the bottom of the card (with the text). The front would have a costume (a picture) for each step of the page opening. The bottom page would just have 1 costume - opened up.
By giving the front of the card a different color than the inside, it looked very good:
Link to the games in Scratch 2.0 online
Go to the Scratch website and look for user cobhcoderdojo to find these projects.
I will share these projects on Scratch 2.0 (in browser, online). I will put a link to the game on Facebook as well.
