I started it off by beginning the song... feel free to continue it however you like with a remix! I think it will mak sense to have everybody make their own sprite, and control it all with broadcasts from the stage- but do whatever you're inspired to do! Try to follow the trail of remixes to the most recent one and remix that (I'll merge things add the end if necessary). http://scratch.mit.edu/static/projects/johnm/186757_sm.png tset http://scratch.mit.edu/projects/johnm/176008 http://scratch.mit.edu/static/projects/johnm/176008_sm.png MotionBlur http://scratch.mit.edu/projects/johnm/123498 Simulates motion blur by having two following copies of the sprite with increasing ghost effect. http://scratch.mit.edu/static/projects/johnm/123498_sm.png 2 Pong http://scratch.mit.edu/projects/johnm/98012 A simple pong game INSTRUCTIONS *Move mouse to control paddle *Don't let the ball fall into the lava HOW I MADE THIS *The paddle just moves it's X coordinate to whatever the mouse's X coordinate is *I drew the ball using the gradient effect in the paint editor *The trickiest thing for me was to get the ball to bounce off the paddle right. I ended up going on the website and finding how someone else had done it: "point in direction (180 - direction)". I still find this confusing but it works really well. Then I turn a random amount to make it more interesting. MORE IDEAS Make the game more complex or change images. http://scratch.mit.edu/static/projects/johnm/98012_sm.png bee random http://scratch.mit.edu/projects/johnm/7650 http://scratch.mit.edu/static/projects/johnm/7650_sm.png test3 http://scratch.mit.edu/projects/johnm/2862 http://scratch.mit.edu/static/projects/johnm/2862_sm.png test http://scratch.mit.edu/projects/johnm/2850 Testing... http://scratch.mit.edu/static/projects/johnm/2850_sm.png test2 http://scratch.mit.edu/projects/johnm/1037 Testing compression... http://scratch.mit.edu/static/projects/johnm/1037_sm.png SplatterPaint http://scratch.mit.edu/projects/johnm/147 INSTRUCTIONS Click the Green Flag to start. Move the mouse up and down to control the brightness. HOW I MADE THIS A sprite jumps around the screen randomly and leaves small circles of color. The color of the circles depends on the y-position of the sprite. The brightness of the circles depends on the y-position of the mouse, so you can control the brightness by moving the mouse up and down. The size of the circles is random. To leave a small circle of color, the sprite puts its pen down and moves forward one step. MORE IDEAS What if the mouse could control the color of the circles? Or the size? http://scratch.mit.edu/static/projects/johnm/147_sm.png midiTest http://scratch.mit.edu/projects/johnm/121 You can use this four ways: 1. to make sure the note and drum commands work on your computer 2. to explore all the instruments sounds 3. to make strange music 4. to drive everyone around you crazy! http://scratch.mit.edu/static/projects/johnm/121_sm.png
