What's one character that's going to be in your virtual town? :D

I like how these tutorials have been getting increasingly more complex. Personally, I believe that an effective Scratch tutorial would not only show the viewer how to code things, but also what the blocks they're using do. This can help the viewer create more creative and extravagant things in the future by themselves.

I've been looking for a tutorial like this for YEARS!! I've tried making a virtual rpg a lot of times, but failed because I simply couldn't...do it correctly. Thank you!!

Tip: If you want smoother movement, drag in the “if then” block. Next drag in the “when ___ pressed” block from the sensing catagory then fill in the blank with the arrow keys and conect it to the if then block.

It really was amazing to show my teacher this, she said, wow, you are genius and scratch, this idea just got my 5 Mark's on hand, thank you

[ooyomk]

Honestly, I am new and this helped me out so much!! I always wanted to do this, and a lot of people told me I'd have to be more... advance. So knowing I can do it now is so great for me! Also for everyone else!

This app is so sweet and so are these tutorial videos. Stumbled upon it today by accident, decided to try it out for fun and I'm absolutely hooked already.

Yes ive needed this for the longest time, thanks for the video tutorial :D

[DerDuoDasLingo]

Exactly what I was looking for! I was never successful in making my own RPG, thank you too much!
Oh I've got a few ideas like a shop, different sprites we can interact with, or even the sprites' own houses!

[eirui]

Wow, I improved my little town so much with this tutorial!Thank you Zinnea!

It might be the simplest approach, but it gets the job done!

1 week ago, recommended randomly. You should make a video explaining that scratch rendering is a shortcut and you can make your own rendering stuff. It would've been helpful knowing that to me as a kid.

You don't have to "hover over choose a sprite and click choose, " you can simply just press choose a sprite
