Traitor! tongue

Nah, don't worry, i'll still be on scratch. did you know, stencyl's design is partly based on scratch? with blocks and stuff?

Blade-Edge · 2010-10-20 10:46:22

Funny, I've never heard of that before
Just because it uses blocks doesn't mean it was based on Scratch
Many things use blocks

Cool big_smile I think I might get it soon.

Jon (creator) actually said the block thing was based on scratch.

My mistake, the puppetmaster misinformed me

If that's true, I mean

Fill out the form, and they will contact you when you are selected

waveOSBeta · 2010-10-20 12:39:53

Did that 3/4 of a year ago.

Blade-Edge · 2010-10-20 14:22:57

That must mean you weren't accepted

I don't like Stencyl. Scratch is much better. The Stencyl interface is WAY over-complicated. Sure, if a programming language is more advanced it will be harder to use, but Stencyl takes that idea to a new level. I was put off of it almost the minute I started when I couldn't figure out how to create a script! You might as well have text-based coding for all that Stencyl does for you.

I'd much rather invest my time in BYOB3, which has a much more promising future ahead of it. smile

johnnydean1 · 2010-10-20 14:39:39

I have it already, but I like dont like tiles so...

Yes it is. Scratch has a lot of potential and a great community, while Stencyl, although new, seems like it's already at a dead end.

Blade-Edge · 2010-10-20 17:12:05

Scratch has huge limits
Stencyl's still in beta
You can believe what you want, though

Also, have you even seen the stencyl community? They're much more grown up

... And?

I know that, and I agree with Shadow. I'll still experiment with it.

But I don't understand why you have to script something for everything even if you're only going to use it for one object...

I don't enjoy that.

yes you do; sign up for the beta and if they accept you, you can download it.

shadow_7283 · 2010-10-20 22:14:32

I also don't like the block system. Why 20 categories? Scratch demonstrates perfectly well that all necessary functions can be produced with the use of a few simple blocks; not 400. And BYOB3 allows for custom blocks, if there is one you are DYING to have.

And Scratch's only limitations are far and few. Just because you can't save or connect online doesn't mean it is limited.

okay, can you stop posting why you hate stencyl? if you hate it so much, make your own topic.

MasterOfDeception · 2010-10-20 22:59:38

I just got it too, but I'm still trying to figure it out sad

kayybee · 2010-10-21 14:07:02

Me too. Well, I completed the tutorial. Have you?

And I realized that it's good for making maps too.
If anyone could help me, that would be great.
