not trolling here, Scratch is capable of doing some CRAZY things if you look in the right places. Since Scratch is open source, many mods and even mods of mods of mods exist, such as TurboWarp, PenguinMod, Snail IDE, Gandi IDE, and a whole lot more. Turbowarp and many subsequent mods of Turbowarp even have full on physics engines as extensions, and PenguinMod can even do 3D. TL;DR, don't underestimate the Scratch community lmao

[@ego-lay_atman-bay]

Turbowarp is basically just the optimized version of scratch, and has many new editor features, because it incorporates scratch addons. The reason most mods are of turbowarp instead of base scratch, is because turbowarp is just better in every way.

Cool video! Its rare to see people attempt interesting stuff on Scratch if they're coming from outside. I have a few tips I will share with you that should help you attempt larger projects. In order to make more complex stuff in Scratch you generally need to avoid using the stuff that makes Scratch accessible to children, like the sprite system. Larger projects, especially 3D and Graphics projects usually only use sprites for organisation (dividing projects up into Initialisation, Rendering etc.), and not for actual objects, as it is better to create these functionalities yourself with variables/lists. As for rendering, its better to use the Pen Extension (i'm not sure why its an extension as it is a core functionality available to everyone by default, and used to be a regular category of blocks) to render pixels, as this allows up to 480*360 resolution and full RGB colour, unlike clones which are very restrictive in both these regards. It's also easier to deal with than having 300 clones operating independently in their own scripts. You can also tick the "run without screen refresh" box in the custom block creation screen to force everything in that block to run before the frame renders (this is how you can fill the whole screen in one frame, etc. and is absolutely CRUCIAL for making more complex Scratch projects). Basic 3D rendering is actually probably much easier to implement on Scratch than anywhere else if you know this stuff. I'm happy to answer any questions you have about this stuff too of course.

[@nathanjarjarbin816]

Next time, u can use TurboWarp, it's a game changing for scratch, it can delete all limits like clones and it has more addon

[@anthonyapm]

[@amynagtegaal6941]

1. Your code is really unoptimized. 2. Turbowarp (which is a highly optimized fork of scratch with also community made extensions) is less limited, and if i recall correctly you can enable to remove the clone cap so that the amount of clones is limited by your CPU's capability rather than a set value

[@circuitcoder]

I have a friend who literally made an entire os using the pen feature with windows and everything, and a bunch of people who have made 3d stuff so this hurt a lot to watch. Either way great job by figuring out for yourself, it's not as easy as others make it seem
