I'm trying to get my sprite to go back and forth.
I've tried to do:

When gf clicked
Forever
 Glide (15) secs to x: (x) y: (y)
 Go to x: (x) y: (y)
 Point in direction [-90 v] 
 Glide (15) secs to x: (x) y: (y)
 Go to x: (x) y: (y)
 Point in direction [90 v]

This worked on my first maze game, but now my sprite gets stuck on the edge of the screen. I've tried:

When gf clicked
forever
move (10) steps
point in direction [-90 v]
move (-10) steps

That didn't go to well. My sprite got stuck at the point it was supposed to turn around, and started to shake.

So is that the only script that your sprite has? I doubt that, though if it is true, then your sprite's going to shake because there's no delay and things are happening very rapidly. You'll probably want to use a glide block, or a repeat loop instead. That, or you could add in a delay. As for getting stuck, I'm not sure what'd cause that in your script. :/

Anyway, hello Sturm_Programing and welcome to Scratch! I hope tat you'll have a great time here!

With regards,

here's something like what ernie suggested (using both repeat and wait blocks):

when gf clicked
forever
   point in direction [90]
   repeat [10]
      move [10] steps
   end
   wait [1] secs
   point in direction [-90]
   repeat [10]
      move [10] steps
   end
   wait [1] secs
