Help with Game

Does anyone know a way I can improve this game? Such as clean up my coding and maybe make it run smoother. Besides from the birds not flapping wings.

Fun game! Here are a few things I noticed:

Gameplay:
  • Maybe put the instructions in the description as well? It might be hard for players to retain everything the grim reaper tells you at the beginning.
  • Perhaps make the required life to win a bit smaller? With the current probability, winning would be pretty hard. I've been playing it for a 10 minutes or so, and I haven't even reached 10 @_@
  • Maybe rename the ghouls or reapers to something else? It's a little easy to mix them up with the reaper in the middle of the screen.
Code:
  • Right-clicking and then pressing “clean up” usually helps a lot.
  • I don't see a lot of people on Scratch doing this, but if you add comments to your code (right click –> add comment) and make a note of what each part does, it makes it a lot easier to go through it. It's a very highly recommended practice in coding outside of Scratch!!

ok thank you for the good comment and advice! I did have it at 20 life but people said it was too easy so i bumped it up.
