It's crazy to see how powerful Scratch is. I've been "coding" for a LONG time.....but my initial exposure to coding was in "Basic" and C......where you have to code EVERY SINGLE THING in any game or program....like, how to show the main window...how to add menus, etc.....Scratch takes all of that boring and difficult stuff and lets you focus on the fun parts. Your tutorials are AMAZING. Keep up the great work!!!!!

[@pyrrhuloxia53]

Dang bro just watching this series i got so much better at scratch. I'm currently working on a custom turnbased rpg combat system, and took a leaf from your tree and used a index to keep track of which option was currently being selected by my custom selector, using two other lists to keep track of the button's x and y, and using the option index, it's working FLAWLESSLY. you've been inspiring so much of my work, and it's amazing how well it's working. just wanted to say thanks!

Hi Griff, teacher here! I used Scratch a few years ago to do some pretty basic stuff. I just got through the first episode of this tutorial with no issues, it was so easy to follow! Thank you so much for putting this together! You might get to it in later episodes, but the only thing I would suggest is at the very end of this episode, I added a "Set PLAYER DIR to 180" to the "When Flag Clicked" block, that way it also sets my idle animation to look a bit more natural when the game starts.

[@realausome]

You cant not love Griffpatch! He's a genius and he can make crazy things with such a basic coding language. I cannot understand how he does this with SCRATCH!

[@double9videos]

Yes, because of this it reduces the reasons that I need to switch from Scratch to other more complex coding language because I just found more and more and more things are possible to make on Scratch!!!

[@MrPuzzleCodes]

@@double9videos well if you want to work profesionally, switching is very much recommended. But of you just do it for fun yeah, theres fewer and fewer reasons

8:30 is there a reason that instead of using the "Go to x:() y:()" block, you use individual go to blocks for this? As far as I know, there isn't a difference, but I'm just curious!

[@TONYXXXIFICATION]

Oh yeah I see what you mean. Great question, I'm curious aswell! You would think that changing (x) and (y) together in the same block would make for smoother diagonal movement, and that contrarily changing (x) first and (y) later, would risk creating a "staircase" diagonal movement. Does it really not matter at all? Maybe it's so fast that it all happens before the screen gets refreshed?

18:09 IMPORTANT: If the first costume/frame of the walk animation is named something like “walk90.1”, the switch costume command added at 20:31 will not work. Count your frames like at 20:57, where the very first costume of animation is just named “walk” and the player direction. I was stuck on this step for a while until I fixed the names of my costumes

For anyone who wants the character to only walk in one direction each time and not 2 directions basically under the define try move dx dy on change player x and player y put an if block on each one, then put with the player x inside the if block not key up arrow or down arrow pressed and with the y put if not right arrow or left arrow pressed, hope this helps

Fun fact! If you go back to edit the "Try move" block & add in a third input labeled "Speed", you can instead have the player's X & Y variables take the X & Y input times the speed input, so you can add capabilities for sprinting, if you so desire!

Hi griffpatch! Look I have a question to make. I want to make a game with a character selection for 4 clones insead of 4 spites, because 4 clones wastes a lot less space. But I keep finding every single place for advice and I can't find anything. KZbin is not the solution, it's really hard! So I made one of your scrolling games in scratch (I wanted to start making scrolling games) and I saw a trick you added in your scratch tutorial: To clone the sprites with a method. So that's what I did with the 4 buttons. But I wanted to ask you how to make a small (4) character selection? And all of your games are amazing! Nobody could beat you in a scratch competition !
