Why can't I play multiplayer games?

chiru3

For some reason, I can't play multiplayer games even though I am a Scratcher. Every time I play, the game says there are no others online. Can you explain why this is happening?

I didn't know where to put this, so I put it here.

Either your internet isn't working
or
there's literally nobody that's online

Literally any time I try to play a cloud game, users leave within five minutes, if there are users at all. Most users just don't notice the project. Try talking with some of your friends and maybe scheduling an online gaming session! That could help your gaming experience.

There are millions of multiplayer projects, so one could not be noticed at all. Try to organize a game with other Scratchers, so that you will be sure that there will be online players.

Sorry for the millions, hundrets I meant.

“millions” is quite a exaggeration…
i think hundreds is still a bit too much

like they other person said its either your internet is broken, there are literally no people, or you are stuck inside your own pocket universe.
I don't play them much but you could try some of griffpatch's cloud projects (not sponsored)

The reasons you why you cant see players in multiplayer games:

New scratchers cannot see other players in multiplayer games, they must wait to be scratcher.

You cant see other players when you playing on see inside mode.

When you play a multiplayer game when you turn off your internet or automatically turns off, you cannot see other players.

I am a Scratcher (see my profile).
I didn't press see inside
My internet seems not to be the problem, I see the three bars.

I tried this:
https://scratch.mit.edu/projects/12785898
and it didn't work, it said I was playing alone on both servers.

There are currently 11 games made by griffpatch with at least one person in them.

Have them try joining “Massive Multiplayer Platformer v1.2” (a game that almost always has players) and see what happens.

I haven't been here for a while, but it seems to be a problem with my computer. If I go onto a different computer it works fine.
