I’ve been spending a lot of time on my computer lately, trying out new projects in Scratch. I love the way you can make characters move and do all sorts of stuff! Today, I decided to create a little game where a cat character chases a mouse around the screen. It’s pretty simple—just move the cat with the arrow keys and catch the mouse by being at the same spot as it when it runs to the corners.

I’ve also been looking into making a platformer where the player controls a small robot that jumps across platforms, collecting coins along the way. The tricky part is figuring out how to make sure the robot doesn’t fall off unless you jump in time. I keep trying different ways to check if the cat touches something and make it react accordingly.

There’s this new game called Celeste that’s been all over the internet. I’m thinking about making a platformer inspired by its style, with steep walls and hidden paths. It would be really fun to design levels where you have to find secret areas or use special abilities like double jumps.

Coding is so much fun! I can spend hours coming up with ideas and seeing what works.
