This a little project I made to share my thoughts about Scratch. :-) I recorded myself speaking it because I thought it would be a little more personal, but you can also read it in the Notes and Credits. :-) Right Arrow Key → mutes/unmutes my commentary Left Arrow Key ← mutes/unmutes the music Up Arrow Key ↑ mutes/unmutes the bus sound effect Space Bar ▭ turns the bus's headlights on/off :D To me, the Scratch Community is a lot like a bus, so I think it would be super fun if you wanted to remix and add yourself riding the Scratch bus. :-) Although it's certainly important to abide by the law in real life and buckle up, in this project there's no harm in drawing yourself in wherever you'd like. :D For example, I drew myself riding on top of the bus. ^.^ Also, the bus is white for a reason. ;D Like Scratch, this bus is a blank canvas that you can decorate however you want! For example, I "painted" blue handprints going up the side. So feel free to add your own personal touch to the bus! :D (Fun Fact: those are actually tracings of my hand. :P I really don't like drawing hands, so I took a picture of my hand, uploaded it to Scratch, and traced it using vector. :P) - Credits - (I'm putting this here because the Notes part of the Notes and Credits kind of took over that section :P) ♫ Music ♫ ~ "Easy Day" by Kevin MacLeod ♪ Sound Effects ♪ ~ "Truck Drive" is from the YouTube Audio Library ✐ Art ✐ ~ All art is by me, except for the Scratch logo, which is from the Scratch Library. :-) I used the double decker bus in this picture for inspiration: https://www.istockphoto.com/photo/red-double-decker-bus-gm480838305-36702520. And I used @ipzy's landscape in her project, Scrolling Game Tutorial, as a reference for creating the layered effect of the landscape ☆ Coding ☆ ~ I kid you not, I don't even remember how many different things I tried to get my landscape to move! For some reason, I just couldn't get it to work properly. Finally, I decided to use the coding from @ceebee's project, Traveling, as a base for my landscape, and it worked! :D You can check out Traveling here: https://scratch.mit.edu/projects/171700462/ I also used the layered landscape technique from 's Scrolling Game Tutorial, which you can check out here: Thanks so much to both of you! :D You're life-savers! Or project-savers (which would probably be more accurate :P). Easter Egg: A good friend of mine is hiding somewhere in the landscape. :P Comment below if you spot him! ;D
To CK for the coding, sound, etc, etc, etc. :P :) All I did was add Mindy in the window. Transcript is on CK's original project VVVV
