Scratch

~*~!!!IMPORTANT!!!~*~
Does anyone else remember the theme is interactive storytelling? Before we make everything fit together, we have to put the story in. Otherwise, it's just a collection of minigames stuck together. Not a story.

Does the theme also suggest that the player should be able to influence the plot, as well? Such that there might be different paths through the game, depending on choices they make.

No, the interactive part could be the plot, the people in the story, or both. I say we make the people interactive, it would save time.

Ah, good. I agree; we'd be best to do that, then.

Edit: I may've forgot to mention that I'm disappearing for a week, starting on Sunday. If you want my help doing anything (merging the projects together?) it would be really helpful if the minigames were finished soon (today or tomorrow, perhaps?). I'm happy to help with finishing them, too, but could you let me know if this script is the final, finished version?

If you don't want my help anymore, seeing as I won't be here for a week, I'm fine with that, too (:

What is the script for the plot? I'm starting to do it and i can't find the script;.

Not. that one. The first part, the animation-only one, thst makes this an interactive STORY.
With the scratch cat talking, kaj kidnapping the dialogue with Lightnin, and the other thingamagig's. (lol 4 the last part)

This one was made by me. No feedback?
ScratchCat: Thank you for your efforts !This year's edition of Collab camp was greater than the others!
SC:All the teams put a lot of effort in their projects!
SC:You all guys did great, but the winner is...
Kaj: Not too fast!
Kaj:(*Takes Scratch cat , puts it in a bag, and runs away)
The Crowd:Oh no!
Liliacfuzz101:(*talks to another judge*) We need to call the Admins... It seems that "He" came back to revenge.
Player:Who? What revenge?
Lightnin:Kaj.He promised to destroy Scratch. It seems that he started this plan.
Player:What do we do now?
Lightnin:We don't know anything about Where is Kaj now, so we leave it to the cops.
Player: What??? Leave it all to me.
P  *goes on the street*)
Bkg(*Some random guys on the street where kaj was seen running. A good one(that tells the truth) and Jak (that is kaj's accomplice)*)
If you click on the good guy:
P:Have you seen a guy with a bag running?
GG:Yeah, a paper felt out from his pocket. It's somewhere to the right.
If you click on Jak:
P:Have you seen a guy with a bag running?
Jak:Yep, he took on the left.
If you go on left:
A massage pops out and says :You've got tricked by a Kaj's Accomplices! Don't always trust strangers, especially it they look suspicious! CLick on the arrow to go back.
If you go on the right:
You see a paper on the ground. You click on it and you take it. On the paper is drawn a map of the countries Kaj was.
P:Hmm.... Where we will go now?
(Buttons showing Japan , India , etc.)

Ok, i'm asking'em.
The scenario is old, when kaj was kaj and not jak.

I just found some duplicate broadcasts — names like "Play" — that will make everything go crazy when we merge the projects together, as Brazil will respond to Canada's "Play" broadcast, for example. I'm renaming them all to fix this.

I updated the Cricket game to improve the movement of the ball and bat — hope that's okay...

Thank you!!! Acmulan and I were completely stumped on how to program the cricket game. btw, I like happy_011's script better. It just sounds easier to merge.

Also, how should scoring work? Should you lose points/game over if you miss the ball completely? From playing the game, what do you think would be a good win condition? Getting a score over 50? 100?

It just occured to me that using "script" to talk about the plot means I keep confusing it with "script" — a collection of blocks in Scratch. We couldn't just call it "plot" instead, could we? 

Agree. I'll make the intro.
