Making video games can be really tough. But thanks to cool game engines like Scratch, it's incredibly simple. It uses a high-level, visual scripting language to help teach kids and adults how to program. And honestly, it's perfect for people who are asking the question "How to learn how to program?" or "How to make video games". And after my last programming video using C++, let's see just how easy Scratch MIT is to use.
Today I'll be making a game like Pokémon, Digimon, or even Tamagotchi. A little creature raising game in Scratch. I've been a huge fan of the creature taming/digital pet genre for awhile now. Can I do it?

[@SkidesGames]

Affinity Designer is such a great program

Which is a great program btw I recommend it to everyone

YES! I’m so glad people are giving more recognition to scratch- it’s not just a kids toy!

[@Goodgis]

It's a lot of fun to use!

[@sentientsodacan]

i really like it even though i'm also learning python/gdscript, it's just satisfying to get a complete(ish) game thats fairly polished without the errors and intimidating code

[@JuhoSprite]

Its an amazing way to learn the basics of coding. Even if u wanna start out coding in other languages, scratch is so easy for beginners to understand how code functions.

[@hilariousskullnamedcatzo647]

@@sentientsodacan same, well expect the python part

[@Joemama-rt4vi]

I use it to make raytracers and other simulations

[@Xezyr]

the art is super cute! but in scratch sometimes characters get cropped off slightly, so I would recommend an invisible square going around the characters :)

[@Goodgis]

Thanks for the recommendation!

[@GenericSquareGD]

I just LOVE your art style! It's so round and soft, and gives me such a good vibe

[@Goodgis]

I seriously appreciate it.

[@BigBouncyBanana]

more scratch!! the water effect is so clean, and the art is amazing

[@Goodgis]

Aww, thanks! :D

[@JDFgames]

Got some ideas for this :) - Clicking on the "monsters" will make them play a small animation. The animation will vary depending on the type - Different monster, other than the regular chick that would do different stuff - Maybe add a house item that lets you store some of your monsters, to decrease clutter. Every house will differ depend in how many monsters you can store - Save and load system

[@idkWhatMyNameShouldBeLol]

You should make it so there are island upgrades, where it gets bigger, and so it doesnt get crowded every island upgrade your island can hold more little chickens. Also, the game looks very nice and cute. I love the art style

[@cheezum]

This is amazing! Something about your art style is just so entrancing.

[@Goodgis]

Aww, thanks so much! :D

[@matangoldstien5922]

That is adorable, I love that you took it up a notch and the game looks lovely! Also I am glad you are not working only on dewdrop because burn out exist, its great having smaller projects

[@Goodgis]

I try to take a week every month or so, to just work on a small project for YT. It really helps give me a mental break and come back fresh.

[@matangoldstien5922]

Yeah figured so, glad you do that man 😄

[@weirdbitgames]

This is so cute-looking. And again I love the art style! I love using something similar myself too

Super pretty art style in your recent games. I’m enjoying the new style of videos a lot! Great video and game! :)

[@Goodgis]

Aww, thanks dude!

[@PinStudiosOfficial]

I am so glad that you gave scratch another shot because last time you said it was very limiting, which it is but using turbowarp can make things so much better with a camera addon and stuff like that :D

[@jakeoreilly]

It's crazy how clean art makes the game so fun and appealing!

[@JustTaaco]

I love watching youtubers make games in scratch, the limitations of it make it look like such a fun challenge PS - goodgis is confirmed bird person, 2 games with birb like beings in a row

[@Twingamerdudes]

It’s more about the previous game but for displaying text like a score. I would use a text engine like Rex’s ppe+. It saves lots of time!

[@RealRodey]

TIP: You should make the egg hatching to take longer, and you see a timer or smthn above the egg, so u know when its done. When you click the egg its gonna hatch faster. Also you should make the coins spawn with a sound, and do the little guys on the top layer, and the coins at the back layer. So that when a little guy walks over an egg, the egg isn't on top of that little guy. Also, you should make the hitboxes a llittle bit better and a bigger hitbox for the coins, so u dont have to exactly click on it.

[@thedollargamestore]

Hey Goodgis. Your art is always so appealing to look at! Would you be able to share some of your color palettes you use regularly?

[@Skeffles]

Love the cute island! For some reason it reminds me of an old game the BBC made called microlife.

Thanks so much!

[@link_55]

In the shore sprite, how about changing the "set y to" block to a "set y to (-100 + (10 * (sin of (timer * 200))))". This allows for it to be in the exact same place, even if turbo mode is turned on (shift-click green flag).

[@emmielaine7352]

I think having challenges or minigames every now and again would be cool! Nintendogs had agility courses. It'd be cute and funny to see pojos trying to make it through an obstacle course with their lil legs 😁You could have races... maybe a mini version of soccer or volleyball!

[@iamosoli493]

@Goodgis a cool mechanic for the game is you can buy more land similar to forager in which different islands have different biomes with types of creatures

[@FerdiGD]

I want to make a game like undertale. You know, I dont know anything about coding, and the only things I know about undertale is that Sans is in it and Papyrus is in it. Yup, that's all i have to say, and I've wanted to say it for a long time. Love your content btw love your work, and I'll probably start looking through many different tutorials and try looking into the sponsor ;) so i can start learning coding and game development.

[@nextProgram]

Yo Goodgis your art always looks so good

[@Luukskywalker]

I also love YOUR videos nextProgram :)

[@BestBoi8]

This is a pretty small change, but you should add a settings menu with an option that adds small shapes to things that are differentiated by color, for anyone who can't see color as well Alternatively you could also just change the shape a bit for rarer pojo's but eh

[@dungeonsfightercoding2020]

Suggestions/improvements 1. make it so the shop is a button or show all items because I dunno how much money is which item until I save up for it 2. more animals/monsters 3. hatching animation and click to hatch thats it for now :)

[@Jayayaay]

Its a great day when goodgis uploads 😊

[@pawsp7]

Would be cool if you could do some videos on how you create your art style it seems really simple as it's generally just basic shapes combined It'd be interesting to see your methodology behind it all I find making art assets one of the harder and time consuming parts of game dev

You should add a feeding mechanic, to help your pojos grow faster, you should also add breeding, and be able to use gems to skip breeding time.

I'll try to make a remix with better ai, predators that may come to your island, and most importantly a naming system and the ability to give the different clones their own stats. I may not have artistic talent like you, but at least i've spent way too much time in scratch and teach it. I can only dream of people remixing the projects I've wanted people to remix.

I would love to see you make a Keeyp video game so you can play online with friends. It would be amazing. Games like Life, monopoly, and other board games are in digital form and are all fun. So if you could make a keeyp video game, it would be amazing I just watcheed your keeyp video and recently got interested in game making. you might have 124k, but you are still underrated.
