8 Years of Game Development in Scratch

[@CEFORMIVinhedo]

What an amazing journey, man! Congrats!!! Thanks for sharing your story! We are a public school channel from Brazil and we've recorded an interview with the artist responsable for drawing and create the Scratch cat and other characters. We believe you might enjoy the content. Best wishes on your new journey, we'll be cheering for you!

[@JacksonAcademy1]

Hi! Thanks for the comment, I really appreciate it. Who was the artist of the Scratch Cat? A scratch team member? I would love to watch the video when it releases.

[@ErikSepp]

0:33 This is the most madlad move I've seen in scratch.

[@McVincient]

EPICC Video! I really like your airplane unity game! 👌👌👌

[@JacksonAcademy1]

your air-o-plane game is better

[@McVincient]

@@JacksonAcademy1 if we compare to your scratch version, yes lol, but not better than unity

i cant find the airplane unity@@JacksonAcademy1

[@samyam]

Wow I didn't know scratch could be used to make such cool games :o

[@JacksonAcademy1]

Only good programmers can make good games out of a terrible programming language

[@aivanosgg2269]

they literally made 3d projects using math and pen blocks

Long and cool journey, bro (game with your sister's head is really something beautiful) Someday I'll make a video of my journey in gamedev too)

[@LEFFEOHMANOHMAN]

YOU are underrated your so much better than any other scratch guy

[@seth-blank]

Hyped for the unity content.

[@meehdrescher]

This reminds me of what I started with back in 2013 when I was 6 years old... It was basic as hell, but I made a game where you drive a car through a labyrinth and you try to get to the finish without crashing... Back then, my coding skills were god awful and you could only turn in 90° steps x) I then went on to create an open world racing game, it was 2D and there was pretty much no graphics, but I already had collision physics and even some vehicle customization and upgrades, never finished the project though. And in 2018, I managed to make my first ever tolerable driving physics which I combined with 3D graphics in mid 2020. Not the real 3D, just a bunch of stacked images. What am I doing now? Well... I am close to finishing my biggest project yet, which I call Pixel Driver Motorsport. Open World, 6 maps, I'm aiming for about 50 cars with 14 more to go, realistic sounds, shadows, particles, different physics for each surface and more. The game would probably be completely impossible to make without the custom extensions and features in Turbowarp, but eh, I'd rather have more FPS, a minimap, offline gamesaves and steering wheel support instead of running it on OG Scratch.

[@HeathRat]

I'm close to finishing a project. It's called Eternity at Fuzzy's. It only needs one more thing. And a bit of polishing.

[@bobthelendarygamer]

Why does 2013 remind of that thing that happen in Oklahoma in may.

[@JMTF1341]

Man I started on scratch recently and no one saw it it’s really motivating

[@JacksonAcademy1]

Just keep going!

[@JoshKoledoye]

Awesome. Hope to be awesome like you and griffpatch someday❤

[@JacksonAcademy1]

Good luck! ♥ 🍀

[@JoshKoledoye]

Thanks

[@SK3LO]

ngl i would love to see you make some unity vids

[@user-cb4lf3qu6e]

bro, your airplane unity game was just so clean :D

[@JacksonAcademy1]

You think so? I remade it in 3d on Sullystudios.itch.io, tell me what you think!

[@kosuken]

Same here (kinda), I went from scratch to unity, then to unreal, then back to unity (now I work mostly in unity but sometimes in unreal)

[@ChillJ4ck]

Me my brother and my friend are really good at scratch and we are BY FAR the best in our class 😂 ❤

[@mason0133]

This vid is really inspiring. Whenever I watch your videos the first thing I notice is how good your thumbnails are. What software d'you use to make them?

[@JacksonAcademy1]

Adobe Photoshop, and thanks!

[@amethystexpress1398]

How did he even learn hoe yo code this easily , learning all the scratch code is like learning the palagrithm theroy

[@rodrickhefffffley]

Awesome, follow him instead of your dreams.

[@ronaldtherabbit3065]

"Space" seemed like it was based of the spider gamemode in "Geometry Dash"

[@JacksonAcademy1]

No, I have never played Geometry Dash in my life, except for terrible scratch ripoffs of it. It is very similar though!

[@epoxychamp4246]

YO, I was just going to comment that 😂😂, not like any scratchers that I know of play GD 😅😂😂

[@epoxychamp4246]

Also the ship game mode icon from space never let me go lol

[@daxtonrogers7097]

Geometry dash!!!(that part from dash plays)

[@Thegamingpirate684]

Same bro 2013 scratch was pretty bad but I still loved it

[@KingRad155]

I have been dreaming to make a game like Airplane Unity. HOW DUDE, HOW

[@JacksonAcademy1]

once you master scratch you can basically do anything. IT's like you have creative mode on or seomthing. Do you use scratch?

[@Coder_playz98]

Wait so you can't use Scratch anymore?

[@kAiWerXx]

Hey scratch jr is great I love MAKEING games with it it’s easy

[@inoblox8185]

honestly I thought making scrolling games was harder than I thought (it's not that hard)

@@JacksonAcademy1 the mouth looks like it's facing the wrong way, I would flip all the mouth sprites, and the neck needs to be a little more polished, maybe by making it a tad wider
