Hey everyone, I’ve rewritten this message so many times because I honestly didn’t know how to say it. Yeah I know unfortunate time. But it is what it is. This is probably the hardest post I’ve ever made, and even now I’m still not sure I’m using the right words. Part of me didn’t even want to post this because it makes everything feel real, but I know I owe an explanation to everyone who has supported me throughout my time on Scratch. After spending a long time thinking, reflecting, and going back and forth in my mind, I’ve decided that I’m leaving Scratch forever. This wasn’t a sudden decision at all. It’s something I’ve been thinking about quietly for a while now. Scratch has been such a massive part of my life that even writing these words feels strange. For so long, this platform has been one of my favorite places to be. It’s where I could take random ideas from my imagination and actually turn them into games, animations, stories, and experiments that other people could enjoy too. I still remember when I first joined. I had no idea what I was doing, and my first few projects were probably a complete mess. The code barely worked, the sprites moved in weird ways, and the games were super simple. But even then, there was something magical about it. Seeing blocks snap together and suddenly make something move on screen felt amazing. As time went on, I kept learning more and more. I started understanding how to make better games, cooler effects, and more interesting gameplay. Looking back now, it’s crazy to see how much I improved. Scratch didn’t just teach me coding—it taught me creativity, problem-solving, patience, and how to keep going even when things didn’t work the first ten times. But the biggest part of Scratch was never just the projects. It was all of you. The people here made this experience unforgettable. Every single follow, favorite, remix, kind comment, studio invite, and encouraging message meant so much to me. Even the smallest bits of support could make my entire day better. There were times when I felt unmotivated, but then I’d see someone say they loved one of my projects, and suddenly I wanted to create even more. Some of my favorite memories are the random little moments: working on a project way too late at night because I just *had* to finish one more feature, celebrating follower milestones, joining fun collaborations, laughing at bugs that somehow became the best part of the game, and refreshing the page just to see if anyone had commented yet. Those moments might seem small, but they meant a lot to me. The truth is, Scratch became more than just a website. It became part of my routine, part of my creativity, and honestly part of who I am as a creator. But lately, life has been changing. Things are getting busier, responsibilities are growing, and I’ve started spending more time thinking about what comes next. Sometimes that means making difficult choices, even when they involve something you genuinely care about. I realized that I can’t keep giving Scratch the same time and energy that I used to, and I don’t want to slowly disappear without saying anything. That wouldn’t feel right after everything this community has given me. So I wanted to make this post to properly thank all of you. Thank you to everyone who ever played one of my games. Thank you to everyone who left supportive comments. Thank you to everyone who remixed my projects and gave them new life. Thank you to everyone who has been here since the beginning. And thank you even if you just found my page recently. You all helped make this journey one of the most fun and meaningful creative experiences I’ve ever had. I’ll miss the excitement of sharing a new project. I’ll miss seeing what everyone else is creating. I’ll miss the random inspiration that comes from scrolling through Scratch at weird times. I’ll miss the sense of community that made this place feel special. More than anything, I’ll miss being part of something so creative, funny, and supportive. So with that said, this is goodbye. Thank you for all the memories, all the laughs, and all the support. I genuinely wish every single one of you the best with your future projects and ideas. Keep creating. Keep imagining. Keep making awesome things. Holy chatgpt xd April fools monkeys.
