Scratch

dingdong · 2010-02-12 19:12:18

I technically already have quit scratch since I haven't submitted a project in months, but that was because I was making music, I was planning on making one more game, but I was lazy and now I have the beta of Stencyl (Which is ridiculously epic!) I'm officially never going to submit another project, but I will stay on the forums

And another famous user quits!!! I'll miss your projects, but I'm not altogether surprised since you haven't posted in ages.

well actually once I learn Stencyl I'll post any games I make, these will be GOOD games seeing that I'm not limited by the program, I'm estimating Stencyl can run about 500 sprites at once

Scratch has no limits.

Well, yes, it does, just like everything, but nobody's even scratched the surface of what Scratch is capable of.

Maybe not, but RHY's water physics project has crashed Scratch several times on my computer.

Why are so many great Scratchers quitting???

because there are many, many better programs to use, scratch actually teaches bad coding habits

Dingdong, Scratch teaches good coding habits.

actually no, reason being is the way you code in scratch, real programming languages require you to code things much differently as I am learning with Stencyl, and if you're wondering if Stencyl is correct or not I am for sure because you can actually do coding in just java text, but the blocks are simplified pieces of java code

Mr_X · 2010-02-13 11:22:14

Good thing I'm horrible at coding Scratch and not used to it

Scripts attatched to sprites attatched to spawners. Basically scratch in a nutshell. Except a little more advanced. When I got stencyl it was easy to catch on to the way that games are coded from the scratch way - it's basically the same.

What I don't like are the tiles. Bleugh.

I like the tiles, instead of having to snip out every tile from a tile sheet you can just import all the tiles from the get-go with it

Tiles are so limited though. Making scenes from little blocks doesn't work for really complex stuff.

not really, you just have to design more tiles

With limited collision bounds. ;(
