🚶‍♂️ How to Make a Walking Animation in Scratch

--- PLEASE CLICK READ MORE ---

🔧 Step 1: Choose or Create a Walking Sprite

  1. Open Scratch: https://scratch.mit.edu

  2. Click on the “Choose a Sprite” button.

  3. Search for a sprite that has multiple costumes for walking (like "Giga", "Tera", "Walking Cat", or "People").

    • You can also draw your own or import different walking frames.


🎭 Step 2: Add Walking Costumes

  1. Go to the Costumes tab.

  2. Ensure your sprite has at least 2-3 costumes that show different walking positions (e.g., left foot forward, right foot forward).


🧱 Step 3: Code the Walking Animation

Go to the Code tab and use this block script:

scratch
when green flag clicked forever next costume move 10 steps wait 0.1 seconds end

💡 Explanation:

  • next costume: switches to the next walking frame.

  • move 10 steps: moves the sprite forward.

  • wait 0.1 seconds: adds time between frames so it looks natural.


🔄 Optional: Walking Left and Right

To make the sprite walk both directions, add:

scratch
when right arrow key pressed point in direction 90 repeat 10 next costume move 2 steps wait 0.1 seconds end when left arrow key pressed point in direction -90 repeat 10 next costume move 2 steps wait 0.1 seconds end

🧠 Tips:

  • Adjust move and wait to make it faster/slower.

  • Use "if on edge, bounce" if the sprite hits the screen edge.

  • Add background and ground to make it more realistic.
