This is interesting, considering how I’m learning Pygame.

Can you add the “return” block? It’s inside of Turbowarp, but is an extremely useful feature, and shouldn’t be too difficult to add?

Hmm, potentially, but there are probably other features which I should implement first. There are still a few vanilla Scratch features which don't work. Notably, variable reporters, list reporters, speech bubbles, thinking bubbles, and input prompts don't work yet.

Yeah, true. I feel like those aren’t needed if you’re making a really polished game, but that’s just my opinion. They are necessary for in-general projects, so that’s all right.

uh, variable reporters are pretty important

Yup! That’s why I said that: “They are necessary for in-general projects”
Though, if it wasn’t available, you could just use a number counter and/or text engine.

Download the code from the GitHub repository (https://github.com/BirdLogics/sb3topy ) and unzip it if you downloaded it directly from the website.

You need to find your computer's command-line terminal (should be cmd.exe on Windows, Terminal on Mac, and you've probably already encountered it if you're on a Linux machine. Instructions to set one up on ChromeOS can be found at Google's support page for it: https://support.google.com/chromebook/answer/9145439?hl=en&sjid=7634538434974649232-NA ). Once you have that open, go into the folder in the terminal (on UNIX-based OSes (Linux, MacOS, ChromeOS), that would be the command cd [name of folder here]. Not certain about Windows), and once there run:

pip install -r requirements.txt

and

python run_gui.pyw

Further details can be found in the README: https://github.com/BirdLogics/sb3topy/blob/main/README.md
