Linktober: Whack-a-blupee game
This time I did actually make some art for today's @linktober prompt:
And I do have another ridiculous game to go with it! Click the link below to play, whack (click) some blupees, buy weapons, get 300 rupees to win.
For those of you who've never played with Scratch: you can click the "see inside" button to see the code. It's a drag-and-drop programming language intended for kids to make their own games so you can probably figure it out if you like that sort of thing. If you have a scratch account, you can "remix" it into your own account which will make a copy you can edit if you, say, want to do a better job of animating a blupee than I did. (It wouldn't be hard, I'm not an animator and I didn't have much time to spend on this.)
My kid designed the art and behaviour for all the weapons, and he's helped me figure out the code. He actually immediately figured out a better way to code the beam attack than I did, despite his penchant for refusing to read any word longer than two syllables. Go team!
Anyhow, hope you have fun. I know I did! And thanks to the people on discord who cheered on my terrible ideas and tried the early versions!
And if you leave a comment here for my young collaborator, I'll read it to him in the case that you use words he can't read yet, promise! He'd love to know that people played our game!
