You name it; if it's on a computer I probably do it or have tried it. God I have too many hobbies and I love it.

Ideas for a new version of Scratch

Posted by RosieUV - May 22nd, 2022


I was eating macaroni cheese when I came up with this great idea:


What if there was a version of Scratch for stubborn teenagers like me who don't want to learn Javascript?


I mean think about it: there's already Scratch addons and Turbowarp who give new features like folders, 60fps, customisable stage sizing and exports to HTML/EXE. Put all the great ideas from them and chuck it into a version of Scratch designed for professional game devs and hobbyists. There's already ScratchJR for infant school students, why isn't there a version dedicated to high school students? There's a group of people, including me, who have been practicing the art for years now, I have since I was 7 and now i know all the tips and tricks (mostly) but it can be limiting in points which bugs me (mainly my paranoia for the file size).


This may be too laggy for the website version, but release it as a computer program and it'll probably run well. The kinds of peole who would use this are probably going to export it to .EXE anyway. I feel like this could make people take Scratch more seriously as more than a thing you use in your Y4 computing class, and more like a hardcore programming language for people who just can't grasp text based coding languages.


Imagine in a not to distant future where Scratch could be powerful enough to run 3D games and online games well (I mean you already can but not really) that would be freaking awsome!


In conclusion: can there be a more feature packed and complicated version of Scratch aimed at teenagers who use Scratch as their main programming language please.
