Scratch

Are you puzzled because you don't know how to make a game? Here are some tips to help your character move.

To make your character move forwards, make something like this:

When Green Flag Clicked
Forever
If (key right arrow pressed?)
Move (how many steps you want) steps

To make your character go backward, make something like this:

When Green Flag Clicked
Forever
If (key left arrow pressed?)
Move (how many steps you want, but it has to be a negative number) steps

To make your character fly, do this:

When Green Flag Clicked
Forever
If (key up arrow pressed?)
Change Y by (whatever number you want)

The problem with making your character fly is that if you let go of the up arrow key, he'll stay in the air. So make a script like this:

When Green Flag Clicked
Forever
If (not[key up arrow pressed?])
Change Y by (Whatever you want as long as it's a negative number)

I hope this helps!

Bonus advice: For characters, you can be creative. With the paint editor, you can be creative and make a jack-o-lantern with 2 stems for your character. Let your imagination fly!
