  • Let’s make a Catch Game in Scratch! With this tutorial, you’ll be able to make a game where objects are falling from the sky, and you catch them to score points.
    Try it out:
    scratch.mit.edu/projects/editor
    You get to choose your falling object, choose the object or character that’s catching it, and choose your background. What kind of game will you make?

    To add some flare and difficulty to the game, make a new variable called "gravity", in all of the parts that return the object to the top, add a "set gravity to 0". In the movement script, put the gravity variable in the "change y by ()", making it "change y by ((gravity))". After the change y, put a "change gravity by (-1).

    Thank you so much! This is what I used as my first project I shared. And what I added different was that I made lives, a death screen, badges, fruits spawn faster and faster overtime, different fruits, and bombs! My project wouldn’t exist without this so thank you :)! It’s called “Catch the fruit! (My first game)”

    Hi Zinnea! I loved this tutorial, but you didn’t mention what to do if the Apple doesn’t touch the bowl. I already know how to do this, but I know some new players don’t! So for any new player, here is what to do.
    If (y position > (10-30 y under your catcher)) then
    Stop all
