Now, use the skills you have learned to make your
own great games. Have fun!
Try it!
Start creating your own game. It is best to try something simple first. One
way is to look at some already-written code and make little changes.
How about changing the sprites in the Dragons game? Choose your new
hero from the “New Sprite” menu. To give it the frog’s code, right click your
new sprite and click “save to local file.” Save it somewhere easy to find.
Now click on the frog sprite and
then “Costumes.” Click on the
open folder symbol, point to
the new sprite, and import
it. Delete the frog costume
and you have a new hero!
Now click the blue “i” in the
top left corner and type the
name of your new hero.
Testing, testing
When you create a game it is a good idea to get lots
of people to test it for you. Code can get complicated,
and you can get
bugs
. Bugs are when your code
doesn’t do exactly what you expect. If something
isn’t right,
debug
it. Check your code carefully
to see what went wrong. Be careful that your
changes do not cause another bug! Even the
best programmers get bugs in their code, so don’t
worry if you do. Just test and fix as you go.
