I Made a Scratch Game without Code

Yes everyone, I'm going to be making a video game WITHOUT ANY CODE.
actually, heh, its a little more than that. I can't use WHEN GREEN FLAG CLICKED, the most used block. and If Then, it's going to get CRAZZZY.

We need a tier list based on the most useful blocks to the least useful.... Or the block people use alot and the block people don't or barely use at all.

[@choco-person]

I dont think anyone is using the volume variable show in their code so 🤔

[@cootleg]

people arent using if on edge, bounce

[@Fidumo]

@@cootleg ive used it recently in like 3 of my projects, its useful if u wanna want to make ur sprite turn around when touching the edge and u dont feel like making it urself

[@madison-3325]

Wait until is useless because you could just do repeat until and make it repeat nothing.

[@siyahseeker]

@@cootleg unless for boss battles that move across and turn around when hitting the edge.

[@ItBeJC]

For a "forever" loop you could've just used 'repeat until 1 = 0" Also, maybe add a "set pitch effect to pick random 0 - 100" block for when the player hits the green platform.

[@jumpwithkarl]

I am pretty sure you can just use a repeat until loop without a condition and it will still act as a forever loop

[@RonicTheEgg]

How to do a forever loop in the situation: Make a custom block called “forever” then add the stuff you want in it, then the LAST block is the same “forever” custom block and it’ll continue.

[@jorrynchui]

Also a When I receive (message) block and a broadcast (message) loop works too

Just make sure you don’t make that block run without screen refresh

The repeat block can take an input of Infinity if given by a join block

[@BestBoi8]

you can also use a variable, then make the variables data "Infinity" this also works with the color block to make things grayscale for some reason?

there are workarounds for all of these green flag clicked - timer > 0 forever - custom block with the custom block at the end of it (recursive loop) or repeat until hide - set ghost effect to 100 show - set ghost effect to 0 (or whatever ghost value the sprite is at wait - repeat loop with nothing inside turn - point in direction (direction) +/- (value) if - wait until

everything right but the If command not, it makes it stops the current script until the wait command ends

[@joelhoon1707]

I would imagine making a simple pong game would be pretty easy and still work with these limitations. Even with a score counter using a sprite with costumes of the numbers 0 to 10 and sensing to see if the ball's X position is past or below a certain point, then changing to go to the next costume and waiting 1 second. The ball can also just wait around 0.1 seconds after going past certain points before going to the middle and waiting 1 second.

Me who knows you can use the "When [timer v] > ()" block to make custom when conditions

That chord sounded like the: Do you want a break from the ads?

[@havenshaw7856]

Jackson Academy: This is so easy why didn’t I Remove More Sprites? Also Jackson Academy: 7:05

[@mrqwerty567]

you can also use the "when key pressed" block

[@just_mr_mikl]

i know how to get around your limitations (since you already figured out how to do green flag without green flag): "forever;" becomes "set [var a] to (1); repeat until ;", so long as (var a) never changes, it will continue to run to no end. "wait (x) seconds;" becomes "repeat ((x) / (30)); point in direction (direction);". x is the amount of seconds you wait. "hide;" and "show;" become "set [ghost] effect to (100);" and "set [ghost] effect to (0);", respectively. "turn cw (x) degrees;" and "turn ccw (x) degrees;" merely turn into "set direction to ((direction) + (x));" and "set direction to ((direction) - (x));", also respectively. now, the hard part here is going to be "if then;", because it's functionally identical to "if then; else;", except "if then; else;" only runs the blocks in the lower grouping whatever if the boolean value provided is false. i'm not sure if you're letting yourself use "if then; else;" also. you probably aren't. although you might find "repeat until ;" and "wait until " very useful, if you want to have something do something or do nothing until something is true. anyways, thanks for your time reading this comment, and say goodbye to restrictions.

[@thenikita2422]

for if you can use repeat times. since condition is boolean, and when converted into int, it returns 0 or 1, it'l repeat code 1 time if true, and 0 times if false.

[@acertifiedsomeone]

um

[@SamiSaba2]

1:41 if you need a forever block, use the join block and put one value as infinity and the second value as nothing and put it in the repeat block and you get a forever block without a forever block

for the show or hide blocks u can just use ghost effect lol

[@plutopawzz]

you can make another hide and show block by using the effect block, setting the effect to ghost, and if you want to hide it, set the input to 100. if you want to show it, set the input to 0

[@theREALsilviautism]

that's not a perfect solution tho, since setting the ghost effect to 100 still makes it so touching blocks work, while if you hide something it stops that entirely

[@plutopawzz]

@@theREALsilviautism yeah ik, it's just the simplest solution I could think of at the time.

​@@theREALsilviautismthen put it somewhere where you would not touch it/offscreen

@@ellayin0406 you can't really do that in native scratch without a little bit of creative exploits. scratch has a feature where no sprite can move offscreen if by doing so you couldn't see it anymore.
