Scratch is a great program that lets us build our own games, animations and tools. Using brightly coloured blocks of code we can control individual objects (called Sprites) as well as being able to combine multiple elements into more complex programs. However my favourite thing about Scratch is that you can make just about anything you like if you use your imagination.
That’s exactly what happened last week when I heard this…
“Mr Woolcock, can I show you this game I’ve been making at home?”
Below is a video of that particular game, complete with play-by-play commentary!
I can’t overstate how much creativity, problem solving and complex logical thinking are involved in bringing a project like this to life – it’s absolutely ace.
If you’d like to have a play of this game (or the prequel – Grammar Castle) you can use the buttons below.
