How to create games without knowing how to program with Scratch

Scrath is a software that makes it easy to create simple games, or in other words, it is programming software for children, who are just starting out and need programming skills. The interface is quite user-friendly, and especially includes Vietnamese, making it more convenient, not having to go to Google Translate anymore. Today, AnonyViet will introduce and guide you to create a simple game from Scartch.

When you open it, you will see an interface like this, to install Vietnamese just click on the globe icon and select Vietnamese as shown:

To interact and program the game, we need to pay attention to these two parts on the interface:

1. Commands for objects to interact with
2. Characters (objects)

First, we choose to receive the character by clicking on the character selection icon from the character frame:

And choose 1 character suitable for the game

To start the game, we return to the tab Original and create 1 Event initialization on witch character

To program the witch to fly up and down, we create 1 Forever loop in tab Control and add some commands as shown below:

Thus, I have finished the command of the witch character with the task of flying up and down

Next, we click on protagonist to add control commands back and forth

If the cat touches the witch => lose and end the game, we add the following simple command:

To make the game more dramatic, let’s add a cake on the other side for the cat to overcome the witch.

If during the game, the cat accidentally touches the witch, all commands will stop completely. So we have to add the position when pressing start.

Finally, click on the section New background in the Character frame to add style to the game. Then select the background in the library.

So we have completed a game with simple syntax

You can program many other types of games such as Flappy Bird, Big fish eat small fish, Snake hunt, …
