To me one or the hardest game to make would be chess, I have beaten my dad (9 year old against 43 I think) and my brother (9 year old against 12). Really, with a cpu sensing over a million moves and sensing if the move is legal, ugh, That would be HARD.
If you want to learn more about boolean logic go to http://computer.howstuffworks.com/boolean.htm It doesn't use code to explain and it explains everything well. You don't really need to know all of that to program well though :P
Booleans are simple to understand. They are just true and false. So say you want spriteA to say hi if variable hi=1. So if the variable hi is set to 1 the statement if (hi==1) would equate to true. It's as simple as that.
But scratch is simple which I like and it is very adjustable, the variables are easy to understand, and instead of saying impossible to understand sentences it says simple things which don't make my head hurt
Yea, scratch is downgraded in so many ways aside from arrays. Scratch has only the most basic features of most programming languages. Although scratch was meant to be super basic so I wouldn't call it a bad thing because it's easy. I do know flash actionscript 2.0 and I like to make games in it. It doesn't take nearly as long to make a good game in scratch as it does in actionscript. Also a LOT of the code I use in scratch comes from bits of actionscript that I have learned. I have never really done any serious programming in scratch, it's just kinda my hobby ;)
and yeah I know how you feel about the limitations of scratch. It doesn't even have arrays, it's that primitive. I remember my dad telling me even older Programs were not as primitive as scratch. But I'm amazed with what you can do with scratch. By the way, when I mean primitive, I mean outta date, or in Scratch's case, it's so basic a monkey could learn how to use it. I'm not calling you a monkey, but Scratch is too basic for you and I (and many others). Knowing you, you'd prefer more advanced engines for games. (By the by, I'm from Canada too! I'm from Ottawa; where I lived, I was 2 or 3 hours away (by driving) to Montreal). Anyway, I can not wait to see another archmage presentation! ;) Really, I could have never made a project like this, at least not when I was a noob. I forget to give a loveit to this, *Clicks the loveit button* there you go, another loveit. I'm making a similar game like this, but mine is More "Metal Gear"
than Call of Duty combined with Counterstrike (in that there are terrorists). I just wish it was easier to blown down the helicopters. Otherwise, not bad for only your sixth or seventh project!

What do you mean impossible to understand!? Coding in other languages is pretty easy once you get the hang of it ;)

If a project has many scripts that doesn't necessarily mean that the project is more complex. I've seen some pretty simple projects with many scripts.

1 more thing: this is not that bad for only 87 scripts.
