Im currently making a game with guns but no extreme violence or anything like that. But I’m not sure if guns/weapons are allowed. Or are there any limits to what you can/can’t do with guns

Yes, in limited capacity, try to keep things cartoony and unrealistic.

Yes,guns are allowed in Scratch.But make sure that it doesn't depict bloody images or something scary as this might go against community guidelines.

Not quite.


Realistic guns (defined as “if it looks like and sounds like a gun, it's a realistic gun”), are not allowed (some people have PTSD and others may just be scared by a gun…). Unrealistic guns, which typically fall into the laser gun and water gun category are allowed, as long as they aren't made to look like conventional firearms (aka realistic guns).

I would say maybe, as long as it doesn't include inappropriate stuff and is not realistic. Still, it could be rated as NFE.

I'm pretty sure guns are allowed, as long as they aren't realistic. Scratch doesn't typically allow any sorts of violence unless it's kept non-bloody and non-realistic. So, if you had a gun or other weapon in your game, keep this in mind.

I therefore suggest making sure to stylize/make the gun look cartoony.

Yes, guns are allowed on scratch but make sure it's not that scary!

Water pistols, Splatoon guns and toy guns are okay

Real guns are not
