I Made a Scratch Game with no Sprites.

I'm going to struggle for 8 minutes creating a game without ANY SPRITES, and the rule is, the game has to crash if you lose.
I'm risking my own computer for this challenge.

You can do it without sprites. Just do when i receive game over, then make a new variable using an invisible character (Look it up). Then do “when i recieve game over, set “ “ to “ “” then add a forever loop after that, and inside put “set “ “ to (join “ “ with “ “) it should freeze and make it unplayable.

Here's an idea to crash Scratch. When Green Flag Clicked Delete All Of *Insert List Name Here* Add *Insert Anything Here* To *Insert List Name Here* Forever Add Join List (Variable) List (Variable)

I'm pretty sure that doesn't work, but it might

you can use two of the CRASH blocks to crash scratch

you can't in 3.0

[@imnot4chriss]

you could also make the game from the "game and watch" system nintendo made, it didnt run anything, it was just a bunch of preset frames, (you could use backdrops for that)

[@ItzYeetus]

For crashing the game, just put a forever block in a custom block that runs without screen refresh

[@maroonmball]

Scratch actually has a failsafe for this. Putting a forever block in a custom block that runs without screen refresh won't freeze the game, but rather make it run at 2 FPS.

[@Dxrkmo0nYT]

Bro the codes are crazy! i never thought of that bro made a world record!

[@goamatotes]

When green flag Forever wait 1 sec Switch to costume (Random 1 to [Max Costume Num]) end Do that and when touching color of the target and mouse down make it do something, geez. You made it so much harder than it really had to be.

[@mrscratchnerd2450]

nice video, im subbed btw

[@DaDark.]

Bro, you can crash the HOLE APP by making a list, adding anything and making a on forever add (that list) to (that list). After that you strech it out till ur pc laggs out, then hide it, replace 1st item with (that list) and show it.

[@UnknownX-Edits]

The easy way to break scratch is by making a list and adding "add (list name) to (the list you made)" then put in a forever block done

[@krisdevos8452]

Another way: Add the text to speech blocks Add a broadcast block Add a speak block with a long text Set it to When flag clicked forever broadcast (the message) when you receive it speak: (your long text) This doesn't always crash it but it sometimes brings up the AW SNAP screen

[@flamedelf_real]

to avoid sprites to crash it make a list add the whole list to itself

[@aidantilanus1463]

To crash you can also just make a custom block with run without screenresresh on and call itsself in the block

[@LitoMike]

You do know you could've just made one of the whites (either the one on the target or the background of the target sprite) to a different color then checked for touching any of the target colors?

[@leochengsc900]

Crash project doesn't have to be clone. It can be list: set list to (Crash) set (list) to (list) *4 list will perform better*

[@nak2Edits]

For the target detection, couldn't you do when mouse is touching color?

[@JacksonAcademy1]

There is no Touching Color block on the stage :P

[@nak2Edits]

@@JacksonAcademy1 I tested it, and you can actually get a touching color block into the backdrop by creating a sprite, dragging the touching color into the stage, and deleting the sprite, but then i realized there is no "is mouse touching" thing so its kind of impossible yeah

[@JacksonAcademy1]

That's actually a genius way! Sad that you hacked scratch but it won't work :(

[@RonitCraftPlays]

This would be way simpler: when green flag clicked, forever create clone of myself. When I stat as a clone, create clone of myself, delete clone.

[@drippymissouri]

You could add a super long list value, it will crash scratch

[@LilChipWithDaEggs]

you could have used: if mouse pointer touching red or white and mouse down (change background to a different colour) next backdrop. just change everything but the targets colour

if you get the rays backdrop and convert to bitmap then back to vector it crashes scratch

[@Glitch10002]

Something I just wanted to say was you could probably have had less code for making the click detection by testing for if the mouse is touching the red color used for the target

[@Keaton42]

I was dying when he wouldn’t do that and was instead testing every position and adding tons of redundant code

I been on Scratch For Years, Yet I never thought of Doing this. I Have Hundreds Of Projects and Unshared Drafts. However Third Of my Projects Weren't Playable Because How Old they Are, This Caused Corruption and I Had to Delete 15% of my Projects. (Along with My Old Account)😅 From There Made New Account and I'm Still Scratching, With 114 Projects And Open Mind.🧐 I had (168+) Projects On USB Drive, However Being Used So Much Caused it to Be Carpeted With Broken Files And Missing Data. Starting The Removal Of those 15% of my Projects. That Weren't Useable. ↗

[@user-ep9dh3nj3q]

I think you should make the computer crash by first adding the create a clone of block and set it to myself and then add the delete this clone block underneath the create a clone block and put the code under the bit where you coded of how the game would crash code.
