I Spent 2,000 Hours Using Scratch

The history of my scratch journey, from junior to senior scratch developer.
With constant struggles.

This video offers an in-depth exploration of my extensive 2,000-hour journey with Scratch, a programming language intended for teaching coding to kids. Join me as I share the insights, challenges, and discoveries that have shaped my experience with Scratch.

At first, I was kind of salty when I saw this. I spent over 5 years on Scratch trying to get popular as a kid, but I never got popular. I put a lot of time and effort into my projects, but I never saw any returns. But, your origin story was honestly kind of inspiring, and it made me realize I was making games for the wrong reasons. I was trying to get popular, instead of trying to make good games. I don't intend on going back to Scratch, but I do feel like looking at my new games with a different perspective.

It's just nice to see a scratch user that is actually aiming to make better games rather than get 10k followers.

Wow, I couldn't imagine making a 3d engine in Scratch lol. That's awesome

[neut_ro]

This encourages me to actually try learning scratch not just fool around.

This is fantastic! As someone who is trying to improve at scratch, it's awesome to see your work!

Hey, I've actually seen quite a few of your games on scratch, but clicked on this without knowing it was you 😂That's amazing! As an advanced scratcher who has spent a lot of time making games on scratch rather than switching to other platforms for a long time, I can relate to this

[PolyPenguinDev]

You made my two favorite scratch games ...

[LimoDieFlasche]

Your projects are the most impressive stuff I've ever seen... Just wow!

[fireworksstudios]

Your persistence is inspiring! Thanks for sharing with us your journey!

I love Scratch's block system, actually. I much prefer it to text-based code that breaks easily with syntax errors off of the slightest typo you can't find, and having to remember every little prompt and setup for every little thing. It especially helps me as someone with memory problems who only codes for fun on some occasions.

Keep on making Scratch games as you wish, I just followed you there and subscribed here. Can't wait to experience your other content!

I love this video, keep up the good work!

[SuperLlama]

Wow! Great video! Loved the storytelling!

[mathpuppy]

I don't know why I never thought that the creator of crystal seeker was a real human.... and to now know you made more fully fledged games, it's crazy man! I switched away from scratch a few years ago now and I never really got fully into other game engines. I felt like the barrier to entry was just too high. I also miss programming some of the fundamentals like physics and 3d renderers. Seeing how you use this platform as an honest large-scale creative tool is inspiring and maybe I'll come back at some point.

my jaw dropped when i saw editor for 3d platformer in scratch. Really impressive job!

[alecule]

the video is entertaining :) you're a good programmer to create those game in Scratch. good luck on your programming journey!

[Amelia-zmit]

you always make complex subjects so digestible, thanks! ️

Hey great video I’m also a scratch developer of some sorts, but I have recently decided to stop scratching but because of you I’m try it again.

[cubus]

Didnt watch the Video now but Scratch just is my favourite Game Engine. Also I just realized that Scratch is one of the only Programming Languages that dont have Errors, you just cant make Mistakes, also love it that you dont have to spend 80 percent of the time debugging, cus there are only logic bugs and no compiler errors or syntax errors

[glade]

Wow thanks so much for featuring my Bloons Tower Defense 3 :D
