Who here thinks I should do a contest against Griffpatch to see who's better? 👇

[@ghtrefgi]

@griffpatch 😞It seems quite likely that up to 50% of Scratchers won't be able to participate, not excluding me. And for me, I find this very sad, and personally I am angered by this.

It feels weird to randomly say this, but I've just recently started to learn Godot 4 and I just wanted to thank you for guiding me through my first coding language. If it wasn't for you, I think I might never have even gotten into programming at all. Thanks, griff. For everything.

I'm glad that he's using his KZbin channel for tutorials again!

[@unn06]

Hey Griffpatch, I just wanted to say how much I love your videos! I used to struggle with JavaScript and coding in general, but after watching your content, I gained valuable insights into effective coding practices. I've even managed to access the Scratch VM for certain projects (using a secret method involving React). I've learned so much about JavaScript and made incredible progress, all thanks to you!

[@GeekAsteroid]

Glad to see you've uploaded again! your channel taught me how to code on Scratch over the years and now I also make lessons to teach others how to code too!

[@z3n_nz]

hi! I used to program in Scratch but, I've started to learn lua now. i used to follow your tutorials when i was younger. glad i discovered you during my first time in programming :)

Thank you so much, sadly, I've moved on from scratch and I'm on java (a programming language), but on my old account I was one of your first thousand subscribers, and you've brought me though an epic journey of scratch and the methods you've brung up has helped me with scratch and java, thank you!

I used episodes 1-14 to start my own platformer, building the rest off of that. Despite having made behaviors like that already, it's still cool to see your take on things.

[@toztoszok2565]

Yay, new episode!

[@frenzzzzy]

An enemy idea I got in mind is an enemy that moves towards you and stops after a few seconds, then goes again and pushes you if you are touching the enemy possibly becoming dangerous into pushing you off a ledge or into lava, or onto spikes, or even off the screen. The size of the enemy is about a little bigger than the player. And the enemy can look like anything up to you

[@oso_lacion]

here are my ideas for new enemies a mario "boo" like enemy is nice to add... like it'll move towards the player when the player isn't looking or maybe a minecraft "slime" that jumps towards the player. or probably not the movement but the mechanics where every time you kill this enemy, it'll split to two... or maybe both: movement and mechanics or maybe an enemy that blends well with the level (camo), and every time the player is nearby, it'll change appearance to stand out from the level and starts chasing the player. or maybe not camo, but something like a solid platform (or other items like key) but still chases the player another spiky but on the ground and ceiling the killer eye from little nightmares where it'll look from left to right and vice versa, and every time the eye sees the player, the player dies. the player needs to hide behind some objects to hide from the eye (will need raycasting for this) speaking of hiding from enemy, what about the armored guards from zelda, where they patrol in a specific path and player can sneak behind them. once the player is seen, the guard will chase the player until the player is far from the guard, or when the player is at a different screen what about a fake door, where the player will get squashed when it tries to open a fake door. if the player has a key, the fake door will eat it and will go back to where it was first placed

We need more. It’s getting to the point that I am so excited for more!🎉

[@Fr0g91t]

hi griffpatch! i loved your rpg tutorial and i have been wondering. could you make a tutorial for entering houses and temples/dungeons?

[@SuperDarkMatter14]

1: Maybe like a spike ball, but it's rolling on the ground with gravity, so it can fall on the player if not handled carefully. 2: A generator that spawns a bunch of red boys (like a pipe). 3: Bullet Bill type? 4: More levels? 5: An enemy that takes more than one jump to take out. 6: Mario's Koopa type with shell? 7: If you remember the sword mechanic you did a while back, could you add that here or a bow? 8: When you get damage, you get knockback, and you turn white instead of restarting, you know? 9: Gain back hearts item? 10: Touch grass?

[@imthecheeseguy8737]

for 9 just change hearts by one if touching an object

[@SuperDarkMatter14]

@@imthecheeseguy8737 Some of these I know how to make; I'm just sending suggestions.

[@Coder64-Castle]

I think he already has that cause if you look at the collectible sprite you will see it

[@rockets4lifegaming]

Yay the legend has returned!

[@nothpx]

i love griff man

[@mickys8065]

for the homing spikeball, I'd say it should do a spin before throwing itself at the player, as a visual cue. Maybe it could also slowly shrink as it flies, then grows back to its normal size when resting?

[@vedsorbit]

Finally a new episode Its been a while

[@deandean7825]

one fun thing for this platformer series is a grappling hook! , after a few levels maybe you should add a collectible item that serves as a grappling hook gun :D

[@farizparkar3476]

Thank you for this amazing video griffpatch!

[@CoderCraft2024]

Love the extra work!

[@that_one_guy8630]

I have a couple ideas for future episodes (incase you're running low) 1. an enemy that moves around the shape of whatever platform it's on 2. a little companion like Tin Tin's dog, Snowy :) 3. moveable objects like boxes that interact with things like moving platforms (or buttons???)

[@extrem780]

yknow, i'd love to have an icicle type thing, which would hang from the ceiling, drop on the player when the player is under it, smash on the floor, then would respawn after a few seconds

[@Quitting.Soon1]

YAY! A NEW EPISODE

[@KamranMk-uj2fy]

1:18 'Spikeball The Fearsome!' Lol Edit 1: If I put 1:19, It might sound like 'Bikeball The Fearsome!' For you.

[@foriqibnnodir6797]

That's cool!

[@ScratchyBladez]

Did you only finish the tutorial for griffpatch members and academy?

[@HangTran-yd5kf]

Your tutorials are awesome

[@Gaming-Wizards]

Is there a way to make a game splitscreen in Scratch?

[@thoxbox]

for a scrolling platformer you would have to make one side of the screen layed on top of the other.

[@zhansultanermekkali3680]

Wow, that's cool! Will you make episode sixteen?

[@sjduuxhd]

I am glad to see that Griffithpatch has continued to update this tutorial. I really want to know how to solve the problem of platform and enemy being out of sync when online. This problem makes me X(

[@ALECPETER]

This would be alot harder to do than anything else

[@kuzyn8422]

also for the bonus tile scrolling episodes I suggest properly fixing the coin fountain glitch

[@StrykerEXE]

SPIKY, ITS YOU!!!

[@GamerDumpGamer]

Let's add springboards that jump the player into the air! Or add such blocks upon occurrence of which the blocks are destroyed with a slight delay.

[@DanikaThing1]

Would it be possible for the spikeball homing enemie to keep floating towards you unless you’re looking at it, like ghosts in Mario. So if you turn your back to him he floats to you, but if you face him he will stop

[@PLUSHIE_WORLDOFFICIAL1]

[@RaeRae.22]

Is it possible you can make a 2nd part to the car physics?

[@vidyaagarwal5475]

You should add crouching and how you draw so good

[@jean-ernestinlapioche3638]

heya ! I know the platformer series is really popular but could you also do an episode on the tiled scrolling platformer where you could cover new mechanics that we could add that aren’t in regular mario?

[@Beans997-From-Deviantart]

random idea for the homing : they point at the posistion of the player before charging at them

[@Betterthantwix]

12:24 couldn't you simplify this by making it so that it checks for an enemy type that has "enemy" in it and the having all enemy types be something like enemy_red? That way you could remove this script from the red enemy script

[@vaguedestruction]

Could you add an enemy that crawls around on all sides of a platform? Like a crawlid from Hollow Knight. Or like that snake thing in appel if i remember correctly

[@enzotutoriaisgames3115]

GRIFFPATCH GRIFFPATCH GRIFFPATCH!! TEACH US HOW TO MAKE A BOSS ON THIS SERIE!!

[@Cringeroni]

an idea i had: one that takes 2 hits to be killed but only takes a life on its second hit it's prolly not gonna fit into the scheme of the game well, but idk considering we have a literal *spike ball* now yeah

[@KidsCoulter]

is there a way to add a textured floor to the 3d engine? I have experimented with making the walls longer and a different color but nothing really works that well

[@sokabl64]

i think a cool enemy would be steel red which is like a red but it requires many jumps to die

[@armaanshahzad2939]

Ideas: Boss Animated platforms (lava in particular) Something that shoots Power ups

Please introduce Level hitboxes - the theory in a Scratcher's project you showcased in ep7 or 8 that I really liked.

[@Miru_Man]

Hi Griffpatch! We're fellow scratchers

[@TtlyNotEspi-SP]

you should try and make the spikes more glider like, like how the space shooter ship world glide like it in space, the same with the spike, slowly there is resistance. Also if it hits a wall, bounces

[@Abstract007]

oh, whoops, i already made seven enemy types 😅 Also, maybe a video about how to have several platforms that do different movements in one scene?

hey griffpatch, loving these tutorials! I just want to say, the sad thing about your platformer tutorials is that most people simply copy yours script for script, with no creativity, not even changeing the color of the background! I wonder if there could be a way to stop that?🤔

Hey griffpatch, is it possible to try and code an real time strategy multiplayer game on scratch.
