Tycoons and Scratch
An opinionative article
By Bob Main
Tycoons are considered one of the best projects on Scratch. They are. They teach young Scratchers to deal with money wisely and older Scratchers on how to deal with real-life financial situations. Tycoons can effect Scratch too. Creators of tycoons can become excellent at making games and users of the projects themselves can learn a lot from these advanced projects. You might be asking “What is this person talking about?”. I am saying that these advanced genre of projects are good and should be more popular and common in the Scratch community. Tycoons will really make people happy and at the same time will make people learn something. Even if a tycoon is fantasy fiction based, 99% of tycoons involve money, the whole point of this article. Bob Main is NOT saying that learn-about projects or other educational genre projects are bad, I am simply saying, these projects should be more popular and common due to their helpfulness to many people. This is Bob Main's opinion. State yours and submit your opinion in the Infinite Possibilities newspaper! Scratch on!

NEW SDS STUDIO-
Custom Blocks on Scratch open up many possibilities and can be very useful! We don't see them being used around much - we'd like to change that.
In this Scratch Design Studio, share a project that uses a custom block in a creative way. Whether you're experienced or just starting out, use this SDS to learn more about custom blocks.
Not too sure how to use or create custom blocks? Take a look at these projects:

Featured Peom-
By K.H. Smith
Inspiration: “We need never be ashamed of our tears” ~Charles Dickens
Title: Never Ashamed of Tears

Tears are as human as laughter,
Tears of joy and tears of love.

Tears are as human as singing,
Tears of hurt and tears of beauty.

Tears are as human as loving,
Tears for family and tears for friends.

Tears are as human as you and me.
We need never be ashamed of our tears.


Featured Review:
A review of https://scratch-mit-edu.ezproxy.canberra.edu.au/projects/72756606/

Graphics: ♥♥♥♥ Nice and simplistic, I hear you'll be adding a pixel-fish soon, that'll look good! 4

Audio: ♥♥♥♥ Pretty nice, it played well with the theme. 4

Coding: ♥♥♥♥♥ No glitches observed. 5

Minor Features: ♥♥♥.5 Laggy, and the way the Fish followed the mouse was a bit, eh, choppy? 3.5

Controls: ❤❤❤❤.5 My last comment in Minor Features. Pretty solid apart from that, though. 4.5

Overall: ♥♥♥♥.1667 I pretty solid game, but a few flaws. I love the concept! 4.1667

If a Game, GamePlay: ❤❤❤❤ I would maybe play it again. Overall, it had few flaws. 4

Opinion: I really good idea would to be have the number of food pieces dropped increased, to speed up the game, and different modes, such as get a certain score in a period of time, levels, etc., and finally, try to make the code smoother, per say. Also, maybe a cloud highscore would wrap it up. Great game!
