Scratch

[blocks]<timer>[/blocks] has a checkbox next to it. Click it.

Good point... The are no show and hide blocks for the timer but you can set a variable to the timer and make that variable show when you what it to.

Try just "Say [you survived (timer) seconds]"

Make sure to reset the timer at the start of the game. (Darn it, the game!)

This looks like a job for VARIABLES :b

When the timer starts to count how long you survive, put a reset timer block right before, then once the player has died, have a variable (like "survivaltime") and put this in right after:

Code:

set [ survivaltime v ] to (timer)
... when you want to say how long the player survived, put
say (join ( join [You survived ] (survivaltime) ) [ seconds] )

Yes that will work. Or, as he dies, just do:

say (join ( join [You survived ] (timer) ) [ seconds] )

also, should scratch make a "stop timer" block? like, really.
