can't think of any project ideas??

There are so many things you can do on scratch try taking inspiration from from the places around you or your past experiences maybe you saw a really cool movie about aliens so the next game you make could have aliens in it or you met your friends really cute pet dog make a project with dogs in it but if you still don't know what project to make here are 15 ideas for you;

1. a pong game

2.a platformer

3. a clicker

4. a story where users can pick what happens next

5. a story about an alternate universe

6. a rocket simulator

7. a game where you're a fish trying to get away from sharks

8. a tutorial on how to use certain blocks in scratch

9. a racing game

10. a dancing animation

11. a pet simulator

12. a contest in which the prize could be 1likes 1 favorite etc. to one of the winners projects

13. a shooting game (as long as its not too violent)

14. a maze

15. a music sort of game in which you click different sprites to hear different songs or sounds

Thank you! This helps a lot.
However, you could make other things (e.g. a cartoon/trailer). Scratchers, here's my advice:
Step 1: Think of an idea.
Before you make a project, you need to have an idea of what to programme. This is hard for most Scratchers, but my advice is to follow your passion. If your passion is music, you could create a concert with musical instruments to create a beautiful song. If you're interested in science, you could make an animation about space. If you like video games, you could create a ‘mini video game’ (i.e. Pong, Catch the Hearts, etc.). If you're interested in comedy/memes, you could ask a joke using the ‘Sensing’ option and reveal your answer! If you're interested in English/Maths, you could programme a test to see how good Scratcher's knowledge are. If you're interested in a cartoon/tv show, you could create a remix of the show, or a movie review.
Once you're done thinking, you can move onto Step 2.

Step 2: Start to design your project.
Start with the basic things like characters and backdrops. The easiest option to design is to use the Scratch sprites/backdrops, but you can also make sprites/backdrops using your camera, upload a file, or draw your own!
Once you're done designing, you can move onto Step 3.

Step 3: Coding your project.
This is the most exciting part! You can start to code your project. If you don't know how to code something, search on YouTube or on Scratch's discussion page. I don't really have any advice to give you, but use your imagination to think of all the blocks that you could use!

Step 4: Running your project.
Click the green flag/do anything that makes the code run. Check if there are any mistakes. Note down any things you thought could be improved.
Once the project's done running, move onto Step 5.

Step 5: Debugging and adding Finishing Touches.
If something went wrong, now is the time to fix it. If your project was all fine, you could think of what you could add to it. One more joke? One more question? A funny ending? More colours?
Once you're done, read Step 6.

Step 6: Sharing Your Project.
You can not share your project if you want, so this is optional. If you are sharing your project, click the ‘Share’ orange button at the top. If you don't see the button, make sure you're signed in and you verified your Scratch account. Before you share, you can add some Instructions, Notes and Credits. And you could even post your own comment!
