Hangman - Type letters until you have completed the word or you lose by running out of wrong guesses. The theme of the words is “Fall and Thanksgiving”. What are the little colored circles? The screen is the actual storage for the letters in the words. This is how it was done in Scratch 1.1 and how I’ve done it here. Why is it so slow? Each letter sprite is moving across the screen and doing color sensing. For some reason it’s actually faster in Scratch 1.1. Use Turbo mode (shift + click Green Flag and restart the program.)
How did I make this project? Used the Scratch Wiki to download the Scratch 1.1 installer. Then, because there was no string functions in Scratch 1.1, letters are stored as different colored circles on the screen. Each of the 26 letter sprites scans across the screen looking for a color match.
