I think it has to be 3D, so that we can design more advanced programs.

Everybody on Scratch is sick of new users saying that we need 3D Scratch. Polygonal design does not fit the "make it easy" attitude of Scratch, and anyway there are other 3D programming languages you can use, like Alice.

Do I HAVE to tell EVERYBODY about this?!
1. Insert Mac OS X Leopard DVD 2
2. Click an icon saying "Xcode Developer Tools"
3. Useful stuff for your mac such as access to Quartz Composer, a 3D Scratch-like programming language, Xcode which allows users to program in lots of programming languages will install as with lots of other dev tools
4. If you're stuck on the AppleScript part of Xcode 'cause you don't know how to do AppleScript, I can teach you some AppleScript.

display dialog "Hello World!" buttons {"Continue"} default button 1
if the button returned in the result is "Continue" then
say "Hello world"
end if
end

Look for Alice 3D. It is a JAVA based programming interface for simple 3D programming for young people

Sometimes Scratch is cool enough for 3D, but there is a slowdown inside Scratch, and that's the problem.

Simple 3D-Objects drawn with lines in a list ... possible, but very slow (today)

But Alice 3D cannot do games. It only does animations. We would be grateful if we ever found the secret password on Scratch to make 3D Scratch
