Cloud Game Tutorial | Part 1 | The Basics

[@Willinat]

Hey griff... listen, I know you get a lot of comments, but I want to be sincere for a moment... you are amazing! It was you that inspired me to do great things on scratch. When I was just 11, I signed up for scratch for a tech class. Immediately I was hooked, for coding is one of my strong suits, since it’s a lot of numbers and variables, which is something I’m strong in. At first, like anyone new to programming, I made basic projects, no surprise there. It wasn’t until I did a group project on scratch that I realized that it would be something I become strong in and would want to blow people’s minds with. As I continued to program on the site, creating more advanced projects, I was becoming successful on scratch. This was back when I was fascinated with geometry dash (which I still am), and I searched up geometry dash on scratch. No surprise, your project was the top of the list, so I checked it out. It is an amazing project, even if it’s only 3 levels. I’m sure many have asked this, though you actually replied to mine, I had asked why there was no level 4. I forget the reason why, I believe it was something along the lines of “I don’t have time or I’m not intrested in continuing this project”, or that it would be too advanced. It doesn’t matter though. I was inspired to create an amazing project for my age, a project that was more advanced than what I had ever created before, thanks to your works. It took me a month, but I made a windows simulator; Windows S.E. v1.0. For its complexity on scratch and my age, it was beautiful. I even released a v1.1. Unfortunately, I was 12 at the time, and I Was in a phase where online dating was my passion (which as you know is against the guidelines.) it wasn’t just that, but I kept breaking the rules, so of course, after a while, I was banned. I am 15 now, but those days I will never forget. I think I might start over one day, when I have plenty of free time. I’ve said a lot, so to sum it up... I was 11 when I started, programming is my strong suit, you inspired me to create a windows simulator, I ended up getting banned, and I’m 15 now, willing to start over. I hope you will read my comment, again, I know you receive a lot of comments, but if you at-least read my comment, so you know what I think, I’d highly appreciate it.

[@griffpatch]

Wow what a tale :) thanks for sharing, and I'm so pleased to have been able to inspire you.

[@FunnyAnimatorJimTV]

Yes! Thank you so much for making this! I haven't watched it yet but I know it's going to be great and so many people are going to learn so much from this - thank you :)

It's just the beginning, setting the scene so to speak .. but we shall hopefully go to some pretty fun places from here!

[@FunnyAnimatorJimTV]

@@griffpatch I meant people will learn so much from the entire series :)

[@griffpatch]

I really hope so! I don't get know how I'm going to teach everything I would like to teach. The trouble is, there is no one correct way of doing this, in fact I always tailor things for the game, but hopefully I'll come up with something! :) And explain a lot on the way. Mustn't get bogged down in the scripts and lose sight of what I'm teaching!

[@SP-ic4qf]

I love your projects and I love even more the fact that you make these helpful videos and projects. I recently made a 2-d game similar to super smash brothers where the player must fight the computer. It is challenging and the npc sprite works alright and I'm proud of the the graphics I made as well. But it's very predictable and gets boring after a short while. Thanks to this tutorial I'll be able to take my game to the next level by making it online! Also like 3 years ago I asked you what was the digit limit for cloud variables and lists or something on your geometry dash project and you actually replied, but I think Scratch now deletes messages in your inbox older than a year, so I'll have to scroll down 3 years of comments to find your reply to me XD. Anyway thanks so much once again. Keep doing what you do and congrats on 200k supporters. ♥

[@Rizcraker]

@@griffpatch also will you be able to do a recording tutorial like you did in generic red 3?

[@griffpatch]

@@Rizcraker That's an interesting one - The recording code is all in the mobile control sprite, it simply records the key presses and plays them back the same speed that they were recorded in. In theory you can include that in any project that is 'deterministic' - That means, that given the same inputs, it produces the same output - as in the game will play the same each time you feed it the same inputs - I could indeed make a video on that too... but gosh - so much to do and so little time!

Now that it's past 7 months, more than half a year, I'm commenting on my own. I know you have a life, we all know. But it's cruel (jk) to let us curious for this time.
