Re: Scratcher's Digest

You can interview me 0_o.

EDIT: Does this belong in show and tell?

No, I don't think so.  Show and Tell is reserved for advertising specific Scratch projects and galleries.  This appears to be a blog about Scratch...so it could go in All About Scratch.  It's also a collaboration so, with a bit of a stretch, it might fit in Collaboration (where it already is).  I think we'll leave it here and see how it does  smile

Good luck with the blog.

Great, thanks! What are you interested in writing about?

A few ideas I had for things to write:
• Tutorials
• Helpful tips
• Scratch 2.0 gathered rumors

I just want to point out that bumping sometimes helps; people might not have noticed your post in the flurry of recent posts.

Re: Scratcher's Digest

Hey guys!

This idea has evolved a bit, and I just released a Scratchers digest website! If anyone has any helpful tips they want to write up, I'll put them under the tutorial page and give you full credit!

Re: Scratcher's Digest

Question: In your magazine/newspaper (I'm not sure what to call it  tongue  ) Do you have reviews for games? If so, I could be the reviewer. c:

Of coarse! On the website I linked to at the top of this page, I was planning on only putting links to projects, but it would be much nicer if there was a little review to go along with it!

If you're still interested, you can get started right away! When finding projects to review, be sure to choose a variety of lesser-known projects.

Thanks!  smile

Re: Scratcher's Digest

Ok!  smile  Think it'd be alright to make a topic asking if anyone would like a game review for the Scratcher's Digest?  hmm

For now at least, we should probably find the projects on our own. I don't want people to feel bad if we decide not to write about it.  hmm

Re: Scratcher's Digest

Found one! Logic Box

Please tell me if you want to use it.  smile  If you do, that's great, becuase I forgot to ask you AND Ro_bert (creator of logic box) and already made a review xD :

?!Logic Box!?
Ro_bert's Game
Graphics: 6/10
I think the graphics could be a little bit better. You might want to try adding a background, and maybe a little more shading. I would do gradient, its the easiest.  smile


Programming: 9/10
The programming was great! There were a few glitches, though, such as the green pen disappearing at times. Also, if you make the blue box (the one you move) go to far left, it gets stuck. But really, other than that, I can't think of anything else to say.

Overall Rating: ☆☆☆☆ (Four Stars)
Pretty fun! Its a hard game, but that's one reason I like it. I highly recommend it.  big_smile


Sorry the review's kind of short.  tongue
