Scratch for no reason: *purple seems like a good starter color*
it's the looks block colour
True.
It's not even a nice shade of purple. its the most neon, ugly, and terrible color they could find.
@@QuantumScratcher then why is the looks tab purple! (╯ರ ~ ರ)╯︵ ┻━┻
i mean, its not illegal
One way to include an intro, is to have it be no longer than 3 seconds. And even better is if you make it only show up the first time you click the green flag. That is done by having a variable called "seen intro". When green flag clicked, check if the variable is = to 0. If it's 0, then show the intro. After the intro is finished, set the variable to 1. If you click the green flag and "seen" intro is not 0, then just go onto the game. One more thing, make sure to save the project with the variable set to 0, or else it will never show the intro.
Doing all that allows you to use an intro, and the player won't get annoyed every time they restart.
actually this is a smart idea, but it depends on whether the game/animation is a simulator or not.
Won’t work. If someone is playing, it will cause the next to not have the intro. You also need a username detector.
@@dagamer667_ That only happens if the variable is a cloud variable.
@@dagamer667_ have you ever heard of 'not initializing variables shen you click a flag but instead when you click the _save now_ button?' Because what that does is it makes it so that variable doesnt reset when you click the flag and you can carry info across flag clicks, you dont need a cloud variable for it

I share my projects unfinished and finish them, to build the tension for the finished game.
Bro that would lead to people not playing your other games in future thiking they are unfinished

0:03 Make a thumbnail
2:17 Use notes&credits for your description
2:45 add tags
2:59 add a high score variable
4:35 don't add an intro >:((((
5:02 tags don't always work
Thnaks
#2: *use every single tag imaginable*
#5: *don't use any tags at all*
Yeah i know. In one of my projects I've done too many. The only thing that was actually useful was the thumbnail. I have a scratch addon that sets your thumbnail outside the project, but not inside so it looks really weird.
@@kalebkjohnston5960 most of this feels satirical, but thumbnails are always good
That’s for animated thumbnails
no, #5 is not to not use any tags, it means to not use the tags that are in the explore, like games art music animation tutorial...
@@kalebkjohnston5960same
For the highscore, DO NOT put the “show variable ☁️highscore” in the “If score > ☁️highscore” because then you only see the highscore if you got the highscore.
WHO ASKED + UTTP IS BETTER THAN ALL CONTENT
The Mr. Bean remix hits hard 🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥
your system for thumbnails is better than the one that i used!
my system used 4 blocks that you can stack and two events, yours uses 3 stackable blocks and 1 event! Thank you!
Cool way to make a title for your thumbnail: add the title with no outline, then copy so that you have 2 text in the same spot. Select one of them, add an outline then make it appear behind the text with no outline. It looks very cool but it's weird when you have to change it. Works with sprites too if you want a sticker efect. Sorry for bad explaining, I'm not very good at English
I used that method for the title in both the thumbnail and the main menu in a game Im working on at the moment, and it allows me to add more layers and colors rather than just one outline. And your english is good, it was just poorly explained but at least I understood it
BROOO thankyou so much, this really helped and the tutorial was really easy to use as well :)
For the thumbnail you can simply do that :
(When 🏴clicked)
Put the effect ghost at 100
If you remove the "repeat forever" block, it may increade fps on wear devices
I was wondering why he added a forever loop
or u can use scratch addons and upload a thumbnail
#6 (probably the most important one) use an old project that's been aging in your unshared for months. scratch projects need to be indexed into the system before they're able appear on trending or the search results. projects can be indexed while unshared though, so once you finish your game, download the file and upload it into an unshared project with an old url. check the trending tab and see which project has the highest url to know if you're project has been indexed yet.
OMG this helped so much! thanks.
THX love u for helping me with the thumbnail bro really appreciate it
My game was really close to be featured in ur video. It was on tending #12 in games. LOL
Thankyou so much for the tips.
Im 44th on trending games rn, physics engine. But these are some good tips
I never thought of the script in 2:02 for the thumbnail. Thanks for the helpful video!
Glad it was helpful! SMASH SUBSCRIBE
@@JacksonAcademy1 Already did a long time ago :)
i subscribed and turn bell icon on
highscore system is the simpliest one a scratch user would think!
this editing is so good holy crap
thank you!
This tutorial is pretty nice for newer creators, however for the 1st tip, the show block in the forever loop is useless, it is already shown as default. only hide blocks are not shown as default, so if you wanted it to hide instead you would've had to put that in the loop. also for the 3rd tip, i would prefer the highscore always being hidden or shown, but never toggled. A creative way to show you got a highscore would be a text popping up when you die saying "A NEW HIGHSCORE!", which could just be made by duplicating the end screen costume and adding the text, with it switching to the first costume when green flag is clicked, as it has no default, and it only switched to the last costume it was at when the game was last saved, and when the score = highscore, it will switch to the second costume, and it shows when you lost. Also for the 4th tip, you CAN use an intro, as long as its short, or if its skippable, by pressing a button to skip. It should also be known that you can skip the intro, by including some text at a corner. Also, in the 2nd tip you explained to have a lot of tags, but in the 5th tip, you explained to NOT have tags. Personally i would just use one or two tags that fit, as one time i worked on a really big project and put a lot of tags, but then that led to less views than my other projects. Definitely would recommend this tutorial to newer creators, but does need some fixing. overall, good tutorial, nice job.
Thank you!
Intros are good, as long as they are skippable. Also, please for the love of god don't overtag it. It's just going to make me hate you more if you tag something that's not even remotely loud. The best advice I can give is don't be afraid to ask for help. For example, I'm a coder and a musician, but my art is literally just circles. On the other hand, I have friends who love art but struggle with code and songs. So they'll teach me how to draw an oval and i'll show them why glide blocks deserve to die.
glide blocks DO deserve execution tho
whats wrong with glide blocks
@@radicalquad they are a sin against humanity.
basically they look super bad when used for nearly any type of movement, they're beginner level blocks that mislead new scratchers trying to make something move smoothly, and they can basically be seen as the "say" block but for motion
also velocity >>>>>>> gliding
@@duplexx58 i don't think glide blocks look bad, but i do agree that they shouldn't be used in advanced code.
@@duplexx58 Although not appropriate in all circumstances, they are great for beginners.
can you do a tutorial for converting cloud variables from numbers to letters? for example an encoding method could be A = 01, B = 02 and so on, so HAT would be saved in the cloud variable as 080120, then it would be set to HAT when decoded
I am pretty sure you can find a tutorial on the Scratch Wiki! Search up Scratch Wiki cloud encoding and decoding, and I think there will be some results. The Scratch Wiki also has so much more tutorials, check them out sometime!
@@sugarcookie297 it's okay, I already know how to do this! I'm just suggesting this for him for other people to find out how!
If they do make a tutorial for this they better have a disclaimer saying that making a free chat room is agenst scratch terms of service

Most importantly, make it playable. If there is nothing to play or do in the game that isn't mildly interesting or replayable. The game will probably flop.
that thumbnail for this video is hell on scratch I could not handle that many messages.
THE EXPLORE PAGE OMG YES *cri*
0:03 what is that "subscribe to Jackson academy" doing in the mail icon?
You made the thumbnail look so easy!
A very good video!!!!! Thank you.
love the background song
There is a much easier way to do the coding for number 1!
You can just put when green flag shown then put hide then just save the project!!
Also in scratch, if there isn't a Cloud variable option for your variables, you are NEW SCRATCHER, so wait a month or two and register as a Scratcher
Edit: it's only 2-3 weeks to register...
thank you so freaking much
i waited exactly a week

love the mr bean remix in the background

To touch up stuff in the thumbnail one: you can also include the "brightness effect: (4)"
why brightness effect?

I can't do the thing where you make a variable a cloud variable thingy. How can i do it?
Also how can I make it where if you miss a normal speed apple (you have to catch them in my game) you die?
Also this was a good video!
You have to be a scratcher to make the cloud variables, if you're a new scratcher it won't work.
For the apple lose, try When Green Flag Clicked >Forever>if stop all (or whatever you want in here.)
@@JacksonAcademy1 ok
Hey1 I love intros! In fact, my intro is so simple!
an annoying thing on scratch in my opinion is when i see MORE PLATFORMERS THAN ANIMATIONS in the ANIMATIONS category
Probably because scratchers try to use tags for all 6 categories
Bro I’m fr making RUclips right now, you just saved my life 😮💨
:D
@@JacksonAcademy1 BROO YOU RESPONDED, THANKS SO MUCH BRO MY PROJECT IS BLOWING UP
eyyy awesome

5:53 yore big brain
OH OH MY GOSH OH MY GOSH
1:51 (How to make thumbnail)
All you have to do is, "when green flag clicked, set ghost effect to 100".
titles screens are also important
One of the most annoying things about Scratch, is when you update your game, each individual change is live. When you make changes, there should be an “Update” Button that applies all changes that you’ve made to the Public Version.
Basically, you go into your Project, make changes, press “Update”, then done. When you exit the Project before pressing update, you will still have the update option the next time you go on it, it will save the changes. When you go onto your Project, it won’t show the updated changes until you go into the code and back, unless you press the “Update” Button, and then the changes will be Public.
I think there’s a workaround by downloading the Project, then loading the updated version onto the Project after, but it’s annoying, it should just be a Scratch Feature.
The fact that you could download a copy of the game then re-uploading the new version, just made your 3 paragraphs impractical.
All i do for an intro is just have my logo flash up on a black screen while a sound effect relating to the game plays
Him using Mr bean music lol
0:18 - I know how to do it from the project page. It can even be animated!
This is very helpful
working fine thank you
I like how you used inspect source to change the message number to "Subscribe to Jackson Academy!"|
i can do that this too.
green flag pressed
set [ghost] effect to (100)
(drag and go to the front)
If you really want an intro, make sure there is a skip button, and state it in the intro, don't say it only in the description, write a text on screen:
"S for Skip"
Until the intro finishes! Great way for you to get your intro but not disturb the potential likes!!
thank you
1:09 THE CAPTIONS FOR THIS 💀💀💀💀💀💀💀💀💀
Thank you
$:46 Why can't you add a keypress or button to skip the intro? That would allow players that played it for the first time to see your intro and returning players could easily skip it. You tell them what key to press AFTER they complete the first objective in your game.

W thumbnail
With Scratch Addons, you can literally set the thumbnail
Pls change “you died” to “you suck”. Like u always do when u do the challange
is that the mr bean intro music remix on the backgrounf?
is that the animated mr bean theme tne in the background?
Yeah sure add a score when im making an animation
I can agree that intros are annoying once I was playing a game and I had to wait through a 30 seconds intro
And make it very saturated and bright, for some reason a lot of platformers do that
You dont need a forever loop for the thumbnail one
actually, you need to put the "Go to Front Layer" in the forever loop, incase you have sprites in your game that change layers, you want to be sure that the thumbnail is in front of them all.
why was there a mr bean animated series intro trap remix at the beginning
Ok something i want to say, i just do not like people that spam tags, sure it sometimes works, but there are some people who dont do it and have an amazing project, but no views, but then with a lot of tags but a terrible project and gets a ton of views.
A small amount of tags is fine but dont overdue it
cool
How do I make this work with variables?
Okay but what if your game is a clicker game so you don't have an enemy, and can't die so you dont have a high score
I dont have the cloud variable (stored on server) what should i do??
It's because you are a new scratcher, to become a scratcher share two projects, comment, and favorite on a project and wait for about 2 days
Wow i never new this🙂
How do I get cloud variables
Why did you have the Mr. Bean theme playing most of the time?
