I'm sorry about the Japanese Thumbnails in the video. I understand that design preferences in Japan are different, catering to diverse choices among Japanese users.
However, for English users, it's not recommended to create cluttered thumbnails.
My thoughts
1. I like to put the instructions during the project, as like a tutorial (but make it very quick, easy, and skippable) because I don't think most people (even me) even read the instructions at all.
2: Japanese people are able to understand and navigate the thumbnails in their projects. It's because that's what they are used to in their culture. Actually when I once suggested using a less cluttered thumbnail they thought that the English thumbnail needed way more things in it. Although I don't think they mind the simple thumbnails that much.
3. Agree but make the first ones easy and simple and make them gradually get more and more complicated
4. I agree you should only have an intro if it is very unique or maybe make it unique to the specific project. Although japanese scratchers make a lot of intros to show their technical ability
5. lol
Ohhhh okay
nice
I see projects from 2015 and they promise new features but don't update the game forever 💀
I think having intros are fine, just make sure that if you click the green flag that it doesn't show it again so that you're not stuck sitting looking at the intro again and again.
Fun fact: I have done 3/5 of the mistakes at least once.
1. Cluttered Instructions
I tend to put links to things like forum pages or having a single sentence on something about the project (e.g. amount of blocks)
2. Cringe Intros
Overhauled. Enough said. It's a semi generic platformer.
3. Early Release
I promised to make a career mode for EiramC's Pizzeria last year in February. Did I actually make the career mode? No. No I did not. I said it would be coming in 3 weeks back then, but it's been over one and a half years.
Knowing that I have made these mistakes before, I'll try to avoid as many of the mistakes listed. Thank you for the video!
LOL nice that it helped you!
Tip 1: Yeah I got to stop with adding the story of the game in my instructions. I made sure not to make this mistake with my most recent game Apollo.
Tip 2: Here's what I do with the thumbnail. Make a scene Involving the sprites and shows what the game is about, Put the title, and bam.
Tip 3: And this is why I like to do Arcade esc games. Arcade games are just about how many points you can rack up.
Tip 4: All I do is make a logo in canva, show the logo with a fade in and fade out, and heck, you can even skip it.
Tip 5: I've only did this once, It was with my Angry Birds game, but even then, I waited to release it until the game was fully functional and all the birds needed for the game were there. I even waited until I made the first set of 21 levels. However, the first tech test was actually earlier, but it wasn't released on Scratch, rather it was showcased through my school computer to 4th and 5th graders. Heck there were many tech tests, one for the main gameplay, one for the level structure, birds, and physics, one for levels, and one for the mighty eagle.
imo even a short intro(max 6s, soft limit) is fine, IF SKIPPABLE. Space or any key is a good skip shortcut. Maybe you could even have it only play on first run
Bro, the project in tip 5 : No collision detection... yet 😂😂😂 When's this yet coming?
surely before GTA VI tho
@@McVincient Why do you like GTA so much? What's the big deal? It's just an AO game with some open world features 😕
@@MrIssa2021what's an ambient occlusion game, may i ask?
@@Cyberfishofant It's something related to 3D. I don't really know the definition, but you only need to worry about it if you're making a 3D game.
@@MrIssa2021 ik what ambient occlusion is. Were you referring to the "Adult Only" Rating?
Do you do any Scratch project reviews?(For our projects) It would be cool if you can check out some of our projects and give them ratings!
Yes I do! Another episode coming soon!
How do we enter our projects?@@McVincient
Fake loading screens are the worst. Imagine creating a sprite and animating a fake loading screen because you think it makes your game more professional looking when it just adds an unnessecary extra wait to the ACTUAL loading screen we already sat through just to play your game.
ok. i've submitted the project.
a Game : **Exists**
also a Game : "every thing coming in 44052"
Great video! I've seen many of these mistakes in my older games lol
