🔨 Step 1: Create a New Project

  1. Go to scratch.mit.edu and log in.

  2. Click "Create" to start a new project.

🍎 Step 2: Add Sprites

  1. Click the “Choose a Sprite” button.

    • An apple sprite.

🎨 Step 3: Set the Stage

  1. Click on “Choose a Backdrop” and select a background (like "Blue Sky").

  2. Optionally, you can draw your own!

🧠 Step 4: Code the Basket (Player)

Make it move left and right:

  1. Click the basket sprite.

  2. Add this code:


when green flag clicked
go to x: 0 y: -140
forever
  if <key (right arrow) pressed> then
    change x by 10
  end
  if <key (left arrow) pressed> then
    change x by -10
  end
end

🍏 Step 5: Code the Apple (Falling Object)

  1. Click the apple sprite.

  2. Add this code:


when green flag clicked
go to x: pick random -200 to 200 y: 180
show
forever
  change y by -5
  if <touching (Basket)> then
    go to x: pick random -200 to 200 y: 180
  end
  if <y position < -160> then
    go to x: pick random -200 to 200 y: 180
    change [Lives v] by -1
  end
end

❤️ Step 6: Add a Lives Variable

  1. Click "Variables" → "Make a Variable" → name it Lives.

  2. Set it to 3 at the start:


when green flag clicked
set [Lives v] to 3

  1. Add a "Game Over" message:


if <(Lives) = 0> then
  say [Game Over!] for 2 seconds
  stop [all v]
end

⭐ Step 7: Add Score (Optional)

  1. Make another variable called Score.

  2. Inside the apple's code, when it touches the basket:


change [Score v] by 1

✅ You’re Done!

Now click the green flag and play your game:

  • Move the basket with arrow keys.

  • Catch the falling apples.

  • Miss three apples, and it’s game over.
