NOTICE: If you have the Scratcher rank but are getting a connection error when trying to join, then try hosting your game on TurboWarp instead: https://turbowarp.org/752200655 Important: This project uses cloud variables, so you need to be using an account with the Scratcher (not New Scratcher) rank for this project to work correctly. This project should be run on desktops, laptops, and somewhat-powerful phones, because weak/old phones are too slow and unreliable for this project. For players: Click on the "Join game" button and enter the PIN you see on the host's screen. Answer the questions correctly and as fast as possible to earn points! For hosts: Make sure that the players can see the question and answers by either being in the same room or sharing your screen in an online meeting. To find more quizzes to play (or for somewhere to share quiz codes), please visit the link below: scratch.mit.edu/discuss/topic/730543
Love & Favorite this project if you liked it! (please, I worked hard on this project) Please don't post Game PINs in the comments, because your screen needs to be visible to EVERYONE who joined your game. Additionally, the lobby-joining period has a time limit, so by the time that anyone else sees the PIN, it has likely expired already. Cloud Safety Note: This project never sends any words through its cloud variables, preventing private messaging from happening through this project. Additionally, there are no uses of the username block within this project. Although the questions and answers have no filter, the text will only appear on the host's screen (not sent over cloud variables), requiring players to look at the host's screen to answer the questions. Technical Limit # of Players: 84 Please don't try to host a game with this many players on Scratch's or TurboWarp's cloud variable servers. If you want to, then host your own cloud variable server and tell TurboWarp to use that server instead. Features that will never be added: - Player Avatars (allowing players to choose this would be hard given the current constraints, also I don't like this feature) - Result Export (the randomized names make it useless, and this project isn't meant for serious use) - Kahootopia (requires persistent data to be stored, and there is no good way to do that without an external server handling that) - Background image on questions (the renderer draws on top of the previous frame, making the frame draw quicker) - Newer/older Kahoot designs (would require large rewrites of the renderer, but not impossible) Credits (what helped this project exist): Kahoot!

Tags: Update Log: (10/27/2025) v1.64: Fixed possible race condition where the host's question music would never start (4/6/2025) v1.63: Fixed invalid quiz code message (before, it would start the game anyway).
