Out of ideas.

I'm out of ideas. I don't have anything to do. Suggestions?

I don't do games.

>Start a continuing series, with a major storyline. Will each entry be humorous? Dramatic?

>Just TRY a game. Learning the actual programming part of Scratch is really fun and can actually open up new opportunities for you in life if you go on to program in more serious languages.


I'm glad to think that the community will always be kind and helpful, the language will always be a fun and easy way to be introduced into programming, the motto will always be: Imagine, Program, Share - Nomolos

Well then, try again! Look at some scratch tutorials and maybe those will help you make a game with really good artwork in it.

Re: Out of ideas.

Make a game about a boy who likes a girl, and the girl want's him to prove himself, so he has to go around town doing good deeds.

Re: Out of ideas.

Or you could make one about a brother and sister.

The brother gets kidnapped, and you can play as either the brother or the sister, the brother, trying to escape, and the sister, trying to find him.

Re: Out of ideas.

I'd say start a series of projects (they don't have to be games) but if you need help, I recommend looking at Tanner-FBI's Cube World scripts. Try not to copy them script for script, but they would give you a good base structure to work with.
