Gaming Lesson 1 - Types of Games

Games are by far the most exciting part of Scratch, and are great fun to collaborate on! But the problem is - what type of game shall you make?

I see many collaboration posts which are like ‘Hey, can we collab to make a 3D multiplayer space game?’ This is nigh impossible on Scratch. There are many types of game you can make. Here are the main types that mean you can tell the difference between them.

Platformer These are pretty common on Scratch, and there is usually one made by a famous Scratcher in ‘What the Community is Loving’. They involve ‘platforms’ which a character can jump on and usually lava or enemies to avoid, and an exit to get to.

Strategy These games are not so common on Scratch due to their complexity and finding it tough to make AI. They are either real-time or turn based. They involve thinking to outwit an opponent.

Puzzle These games are fairly common, and self explanatory. You have a puzzle and you have to solve it.

RPG These games are big and usually have a storyline or plot. They are pretty difficult to make on Scratch, though some have been done.

Arcade These games are usually pretty simple and designed for casual play, and usually have retro graphics.

Tycoon These games are quite slow and involve trying to make more money by investing in items. There are a few on Scratch.

Other These games fit into no specific genre, and are just games. There are many of these on Scratch.

Your task is to find and categorise 5 games!

Your task

Your task is to make a simple project which takes the input of a username, and if it begins with a vowel, number, consonant or other, it states so. If you need more info, just ask.

What do you mean? Make a program that requires you to input a name and then it says the first character?

Here:
It says

say [Your first character of your username is a (whatever it is)]

Use the username block or an input.

(username)

ask [What's your name?] and wait
(answer)

That still doesn't clear up what you want me to do.

HarryB178 wants you to detect the first letter of the player's username.
Then, return if it is a vowel (A, E, I, O, U (Let's not even talk about technicalities such as Y…)) if it is a number (0-9) return saying it is a number, and if it is a consonant (Everything but A, E, I, O, and U. (Ditto on the Y Technicality, for now, call it a consonant. :P)), return consonant. And if you can't recognize the character, say unknown/other.
Does that make sense?

Much, but I don't understand your thing with the Y.

Could you please make a list of links for each course, and its posts.
It is starting to get chaotic, and may get worse. (Imaging searching through 40 pages for your homework…. )
