Chapter 14. Becoming a game maker

 

When you started this book, you were a Scratch novice. But look at you! You have five games under your belt, and you probably have dozens of ideas churning in your brain. You’ve also learned some of the basic building blocks of computer science, such as conditional statements, variables, loops, and Booleans, which means you’re ready to branch out into other coding languages, too.

Now that you’re officially a game maker, you’re ready to dive into the greater Scratch community. This chapter will help you get your bearings as you set off to design your own games.

Sharing your work

Right now, you’re the only person who can see your games. But you can push them live on Scratch and allow other people to find them and play them.

How to share your projects

Sharing your project means that it’s visible to all Scratchers. They can play your game, remix your project (more on that below), and leave you comments. Sharing means you can send your friends and family a link to your game online.
