  • Make your own animated cards

    Make your own animated cards

    Why don't you make an animated card for someone? You could make the first screen have a message with a button saying "open". When the button is clicked the background could change and show a different message and the button could disappear. You could make one for a birthday, Christmas , a thank you card, or maybe Mother's or Father's Day

  • Create a Chatbots

    Create a Chatbots

    Chatbots are fun! You can make your own. You could even have your favourite celebrity, cartoon or you could even be your own chat bot. You just make a series of questions and based on the response you will give an answer and another question. You could even give the chat bot different costumes so that your chat bot blinks, smiles or moves when specific things are said?

  • Quiz games

    Quiz games

    I love quizzes! You can make your own. This could be a educational quiz such as guessing flags. Remember that you can make your character speak a different language, so you could make your character speak in a different language and the player needs to match it to the right word out of a choice. Now that would be an impressive piece of homework for your teacher! You could even make a family quiz? It can be anything!

  • An impossible game

    An impossible game

    An impossible game is good...especially when you know the answers. You could make your own impossible quiz game! So it could have click on the smallest x and have lots of different x's on the screen as individual sprites but the game ends if you click on the wrong one, but if you click on the right one you go to the next question? Or you could make your own game where the player has to type words, even one word, in 2 seconds. Usually impossible games have a very simple idea but it's the timer on the game that makes them impossible. Good luck!

  • Story telling

    Story telling

    Have you got a favourite story? Why don't you add an animated story to go with this? It could be The Very Hungry Caterpillar with the caterpillar moving across the screen? Or do you have your own story to tell? You could include an arrow or button that says "Next" that would then change backgrounds and include the words for the next page and new characters like it's a new page in a book. You could make this animated story for a younger family member! Or how about a story about your family. This would be such a cool, interactive and unique gift for a birthday or Christmas

  • Animated name

    Animated name

    Create the illusion of an animated name! You could create a sprite for each letter of your name, create a few different costumes for each letter, then add code to make them change and give the illusion they're animated with a cool matching background! Or how about actually make the letters of your name bounce slowly up and down of the screen like floating balloons? Or why not both at the same time?!
