I made shoot and bomber! then I made shooter and bomber V2.01 and found out about the 10MB limit and posted a project saying I hated lifelong kindergarden! LOL! I really should delete that project

I think I just played around with it first, really confused. Than I made skateboard (tried to use sensing XD)

Re: The first thing I did when I started Scratch was...

I felt like I already knew the program. It's really similar to flash. I started programming a space shooter. Never finished it though, maybe I'll get back to it one of these days.

Re: The first thing I did when I started Scratch was...

Lets see. The first thing I did was download it. Just kidding  tongue  i first looked at some of the most popular games and studied the scripting. Then I played It, I mean "Watched the Scripting Work".  smile  After that i started to make games and simulations.

Re: The first thing I did when I started Scratch was...

I just went "mmm-hmmm this is all very nice but what is going on!?" Then I had a look at some help things and bit by bit, i used my little head to logically work out what all the blocks meant! Then I made heaps of projects and introduced heaps of people to scratch and now i LOVE IT!


Scratch on, everyone! Never get discouraged! SCRATCH ROCKS!!!!!!

Re: The first thing I did when I started Scratch was...

I made a large amount of tiny projects (which I did not share) to understand how the different blocks worked. Then I downloaded several of Paddle2See's projects and read through their script. I learned a lot from doing that.
