3d

could you please make a 3d scratch engine that uses blocks so you get the best of both worlds without having to cheat it with the pen block. I think my fellow scratcher's would agree. you could make it a first chamera engine so it won't be hard to program and make the sprites always face toward the camera so you wouldn't need to deal with such a load.
you could make it something like some of the other game engines such as unity or unreal engine and if you don't people will still keep making 3d scratch games like Griffpatch's laser tag. I just think the scratch community would love to try coding in 3d isn't the point of scratch to teach people to code? wouldn't you get the best coding experience from making 3d games instead of 2d indie games.
I'm just trying to say that a lot of people including me love to code with scratch and I feel like it could have such a potential if you could make 3d games. sincerely I think I speak for everyone when I say scratch would be a lot better and enjoyable if it has a 3d option.

1.7 3D Scratch
This block, and others, could be used with a z-axis in the project stage to make it easier to create 3D projects. But, Scratch is a language that is designed to be as easy as possible for beginners to learn. Adding 3D features would make the language more difficult for beginners to understand, and a 3D engine is not exactly the purpose of Scratch. This suggestion also includes the possibility for virtual-reality features in Scratch, or “Scratch VR.” A lot of the same difficulties come up.

For those who are interested, it may be worth checking out Beetle Blocks or CreatiCode. They are block-based programming languages similar to the Scratch editor, but with 3D features. There is another similar program to Scratch that contains block programming with 3D features, called Starlogo TNG. You can also try Alice; it is not exactly like Scratch, but has some similar features.
The Scratch Team would not like to add this due to the above reasons.
