Text Based Games

The scratch website has over 1,000,000 users. The scratch forums has over 270,000 users. But would you think the Text Based Games only have over 72,000? That's about 200,000 less users then the forums. There are lots of games that are hits, and in 12 hours, there are 3 pages of topics. The forums have over 1,275,000 posts! Yet the TBGs surprisingly have over 534,000 posts. That's a whole lot of posting. The TBGs are soon bringing back a old feature, Featured Games, after the hit TBG "London 2012" ends at a unknown date. The mods pick a "Game of the Week". Here is what some users had to say:

jontmy00 said "It'll be great, but hopefully it doesn't go to waste. I hope they'll feature games from lesser-known TBGers, so that each topic gets a fair chance to be played. Then, the TBGs would be a better place, with better games too."

From your comment:

Hi Jontmy00, sorry for interrupting, but please note that you are the reporter for Interest Story (TBG) and comings and goings, so please start on that soon. Also please check the forums frequently. -chongyian, vice-CEO, The Scratch Chatter

From your post:

Interest Story: TBG
Done, except for art (Zangooser)

Explain that contradiction.

Do you want to do art for TBG? You can replace Zangooser for that, and others if you want.

After you finish this...

Comings and Goings (welcomes new scratchers and says goodbye to old ones)
Reporter: Jontmy00

Create a thread at new scratchers forum, for them to register their names and for you to interview them, if that is what you mean...

Umm... Scratch Cat, Title: Community Guidelines.Place the title on top and the cat below, unless you have a better design (strongly encouraged). Also refer to issue 1,1 for format. Thank you for your time!

Bump. For the above.

Ok, since I am the artist for Comings and Goings, I would like to do lordfireball. Here's his logo.

Scratchers Say

Scratch 2.0 is a big topic within the Scratch community, and so I decided to see what Scratchers had to say about it. Some thought it was great, and some thought it wasn't. There are Scratchers who like specific features, such as cloud variables and video motion-sensing.

Many Scratchers are very excited for Scratch 2.0, but some have found downsides. For instance, soupoftomato thinks that the paint editor is absolutely awful. This Scratcher also thinks the blocks are a bit uglier, and wishes clones could copy code.

Scratch 2.0 is allowing Scratchers to dream big and come up with great ideas that could enhance the community. An example is Agg725's idea to use the new video motion-sensing feature to create games that encourage activity while on the computer. This Scratcher hopes to create athletic games, such as volleyball, tennis, and more.

Plus, the new version of Scratch is opening up new possibilities for games. Maxskywalker is planning to use the new cloud variable feature to turn his RPGs into online multiplayer games, and describes Scratch 2.0 as "a huge milestone."

Scratchers' opinions are summed up perfectly by BirdByte: "Scratch 2.0 is a great step forward, but as always, moving on has its downsides."

ok,chongyian said that I am the repoter for the project review and/or the upcoming projects,what project do i have to see.

No good projects are being submitted to me!! I can't review anything right now!
