Trying to Create a Typing Game!!! Please Help!
I'm trying to make a word game where a picture of the word with the spelling of the word comes down the screen and you have to type it out as fast as you can. If you type it fast enough, i want it to disappear and another picture come down. I want them to fall down faster over time too. If they don't make it and touch the bottom, i want them to lose a life.
Please help me out!

Have you started this game yet?
This shouldn't be too hard to do, but there would be several steps:
- First try creating a sprite with a variety of costumes.
- Then see if you can get it to fall down the screen.
- Then create a new sprite with a costume for each of the letters
- Then using clones to make words from this sprite (see a similar tutorial I did for numbers: https://scratch.mit.edu/projects/93992994/)
- Keep track of the word in a variable and keep track of the letter that next needs to be typed
- Put a listening loop in for keyboard presses and check if the right letter was clicked

That's what i've got so far.
I'm also trying to make it seem like the “ninjas” are cutting the pictures. I've only got the costumes for the girl on it right now. I understand what your saying until you start talking about copies and the variables. Do i have to have a sprite with costumes of each letter of the alphabet? Then how do i show them being typed out?
