Watch part 2: • The Most Impressive Sc...
In this video, I go on a trip down memory lane and visit Scratch, a website I have fond memories of from my childhood. It's now Scratch's 15th anniversary, and little did I know that Scratch programmers have been working on some hyper-impressive stuff over the last few years; let's check it out!

that's cool and all but I made the cat meow when you click on it one time
Dang, you’re good at coding.
Google work contract incoming
✨ *aMaZiNg* ✨
thats cool but i made a message say "hello world"
Looool
becoming this good at scratch coding is like maxing out your starting weapon
good analogy Giga Mega Chad
@@ferritemage thank you Skye Stout
I've been using scratch for 3 years and I've mastered it
@@coinstudiosmoviescartoonsa1978 same but not 3 years
That's what Sigma males do
I spent so many hours on Scratch back in 2008-2010 when I was in elementary school. I never got very good at programming but it introduced me to digital art for the first time. Today i’m a professional 3d artist and i’m still friends with the kids i met on there today. So cool to see Scratch alive and well after nearly 10 years!!
Flashbacks to that one time I spent hours changing the dragon's color from green to red
I bashed Scratch so hard, my mates thought it was weird how much I was on it, never got into programming afterwards, I just didn't get that instant gratification of scratch :/
Griffpatch is such a talented creator with such a limited engine
His tutorials can be really complicated tho
Same i know him iv watched his videos
I feel its important to note, for anyone who hasn't used scratch, that scratch does NOT have any 3d components. Those people had to write the 3d engines themselves using that simple block code designed for kids.
Impressive, but also horribly inefficient.
@@Kio_Kurashi Not like you have another choice. you all are flooding my notifications with likes stop it 2nd edit: currently fighting aids, and im recovering fast, thanks for all the likes :D 3rd edit: i beat aids... 600 likes...
damn that's a huge flex
@@bitman5626 The other choice would be to not use Scratch, but if you really wanna make a 3d game in scratch then you are right, there is no way around that.
Yea its insane. I've seen scratch projects with their own light engines and physics engines.
I don't think you realize how impressive that Terraria port is. The amount of features is insane, even in that short clip. They even got the character creator!
they did? damnnn
I’m good friends with the creator
@@MustacheManStudios half of me don't trust you and the other half trust you
@@MustacheManStudios nah, now I trust you
@@PISSON he's fairly active on scratch so it's not so difficult to talk to him
I'm embarrassed to say, I'm 48 & recently 'discovered' this & seeing if I can use it to get into coding/programming etc... did it in the early 90s but lost track (life) yet now getting back into it(career change) & I'm looking at EVERYTHING that I can use as a tool to make that happen. Thank you
i hope youre having fun rediscovering coding :)
How the progress? What programming languages have you learned?
As a Scratch veteran, seeing Crystal Seeker for the first time was incredible. It's so cool to think so much can be done with even the simplest game engines
They’re making 3d projects in Scratch now??? I can’t even, even though they look like DOS 3d games they’re still hella impressive,
its not that hard actually, theres a simple way to do it but its eh cuz u cant mess with y axis as much
Griffpatch made a simple tutorial on 1st person shooters
The most impressive project i've seen is a working search engine that can load websites.
Raycast
@@camelcam6008 scratch doesn't have a go to url block and even if it was added it would probably: - only go to scratch sites - warn you before going so it would be impossible
I personally made a password manager in scratch back in the day 🤣 boy was that fun and unsecure
How many times were you hacked
@@ilipog Well I wasn't stupid enough to use it just to make it
Ok then
Is it still up?
Lmao.
I loved Scratch as a child. I think it's been over 10 years now. And I can't believe Paper Minecraft is still occupying one of the top spots. Insane that people are making true 3D rendering engines in it too. I never thought it would be possible to actually run one written with Scratch blocks at more than a frame per second, if that.
I remember spending like a week making a jrpg prototype. I made like 1 fight, skill level ups, and a basic map to move around in. Since I had never coded before, it took me forever, but I learned a lot, especially about making sure pause menus actually pause all the buttons and player inputs in the background
Can we just appreciate that Crystal Seeker is somehow a 3D platformer in scratch, yet it actually looks kinda good.
Could perfectly be a ps1/psp game
@@erixccjc2143 well, considering psp had games like god of war: ghost of sparta, tekken 6, I'd question this, but this game is still impressive
reminds me of jumping flash
its insane
@@freshsun ps1
I remeber trying to make a drawing program since our homework was to make a simple scratch game and I wanted to impress the teacher. I spent like 6 hours straight on it and it was still insanely difficult.
Checkmark and 9 likes? No way.
In sixth grade, I remember (quite clearly actually) my teacher to try tinkering around in Scratch and was given an assignment to try making a project. I and some others made one of these stories stuff, mine was something about a gigantic banana man or something. I also went the extra mile to draw my classmates in MS paint, although it was horrible. I don't know what I was on back then but it got dark, so basically it was something like Banana man baiting people into the bathroom where then they would then dissect them and absorbing their corpse. My teacher didn't gave any reaction other than blankly stare at the monitor.
Horizon! Wouldn't expect you here.
Fancy seeing you here, Mr Pay-To-Win-Killer :D
Pay to Lose!
My first time touching scratch was computer class in third grade. ever since, I started creating Scratch Projects with or without my teacher guidance . It's really important.
0:47 in kindergarten (a VERY long time ago) I was in a coding club at school with my best friend. We used scratch for an hour every Tuesday & Thursday. Scratch started a lot for me. I love scratch for this :)
Scratch is basically the definition of the meme Mom can we buy this? Mom we already have it at home The game at home:
Except the game at home isn't actually that bad.
@@shardium yea
Except they ACTUALLY have it at home
what game is it, super mario maker?
The whole point is to teach early coding and it is mainly just for fun
the griffpatch games are so damn nostalgic man. i remember spending ages messing around with paper minecraft. i still have no idea who he actually is but what a legend.
I believe he has a KZhead channel to put tutorials on.
@@scottowens398 Yeah he does.
@@legoboy7107 yes
yeah you can find out who he is from his youtube channel
I remember spending hours messing around on ninja
This was a great video! I remember using scratch and making short, small games at my after school coding club when I was younger. It also was a stepping stone for me getting interested with code and coding in general. Although I do not use coding in my daily life, scratch was a huge part of my childhood and this video brought some fun memories back. I am truly shocked at how advanced scratch projects can get haha! Really impressive!
griffpatch wil forever be a legend on scratch. I remember 6 or so years ago he had made a 2d minecraft and everyone was obsessed with it. Glad to see his still creating games!
I remember when Limbo was the most impressive thing in Scratch, Crystal Seeker is INSANE! I didn’t even know that was possible in Scratch!
ive seen 3d raycasting but holy shit
It is pretty good, but it’s not unique, there are lots of games similar
yeah i've seen some doom esk graphics that you can somewhat easily make in scratch. but mario 64 caliber of graphics? blew my mind
when you realize shockwave 2 exists
It's amazing. It even ran on my crappy school computer.
As someone who has almost 2,000 hours in terraria, from that clip it looks pretty much exactly like terraria 1.1 or 1.2, just with a lower viewing range kudos to them, that's kind of insane
Agreed that was most impressive to me because of the polish, even though the 3d performer was definitely way more technically advanced
You can actually zoom out, he just didn't try
wow
Although terraria is impressive, in PALES in comparison to how insane crystal seeker on scratch is. As someone who has spent over 5 years on scratch I would not even be able to come close to making a game like that. But terraria I could do, if I was given the art for the game.
thanks
Woot! Thank goodness, I needed this back on my computer! Thank you!! :D
Scratch was also my first steps into programming in school. I did a flipper and my own version of brick breaker - I still have these and they are still shown as examples by my teacher :D
4:40 "...and recompile it to the much faster javascript" I never imagined "much faster" and "javascript" could be in one sentence.
well, javascript isn't that slow
@@givikap120 defo faster than blocks running at 30 fps
C is much faster than Javascript. there you go
“I never imagined ‘much faster’ and ‘JavaScript’ could be in one sentence” You just made a sentence
My father introduced me to scratch 5½ years ago when he installed it on my computer. I remember doing crappy games as I wasn't a native English speaker. If it wasn't for that I wouldnt've learnt C++.
@Wyattagum Yes and no, it was bundled with the x86 build of Raspberry Pi OS (formerly known as Raspbian)
@Wyattagum indeed
@Wyattagum yeah. scratch got a lot of updates. u can still use it in browser tho
I might end up using C++ but for now im learning C as I have tiny brain no remember syntax
@@theoriginaldrdust bro learn c++, it's worth it
I recently tried to play around a bit with scratch and I'm making a basic Snake clone with it. So far I got really frustrated a lot with the limitations of scratch compared to for example Java, so what impressed me the most is that someone stuck to using Scratch long enough to make something like this. I probably would have broke my keyboard in half long before finishing even one of those projects.
Thanks for the video, projects are really incredible.
Despite being just barely older than scratch I do know the engine well, and I gotta say those 3d projects are easier than they look, but VERY time consuming. Of course, that's not to say that they aren't hard to make--they still are--but you can't overstate the sheer PATIENCE needed.
What's the biggest time-sink? Do you think there's a way the next Scratch could make it easier?
@@LowestofheDead the maths
@@LowestofheDead Biggest time-sink sorta depends on what type of 3d game is being created, know that my knowledge is extremely limited though
I remember making a fun visual novel in Scratch as a group project. Those were the days...
i too have days like that
I love it how there is just a version of Its just a burning memory when he is recalling a memory in the intro
al bowly's heartaches playing in the background during the start of the video made it for me
There are also a lot of really good animators on the platform but they usually go unnoticed
Probably because Scratch is mainly associated with games
@@noaht2005 yep lol
@poly aww thank you :)
@the man borger
@the man asparagus
Crystal Seeker does work in scratch. Tried it in scratch in turbomode.
Also the creator linked a turbowarp link in the original project that makes it widescreen.
It's extremely impressive how good the graphics are. It's very hard to do them this realistic!
omg! i remember learning about and using scartch in school during primary school. I remember being super excited from making flappy bird.
this makes me wanna return and continue the game i left unfinished. it was a megaman style game with two starting levels, 8 boss levels, and finally 4 final boss levels like it is usually in megaman games.
The most impressive thing I did on Scratch was making a scrolling screen. Ngl, still proud of it
The most impressive thing I made on strach was a box that goes to a random place when you touch/click it Am not really a good scripter lol
mine is either making a dart monkey from btd5 shoot darts at you, or making a car that moves but explodes alot when you click it.
@@Zackwashacked lol
my best is a full remake of trackmania (called trackmania GOOD) with bridges that act like their 3d and much much more. (With popular with bring the top 6) made when i was on scratch for 1.5 months, another one is a game called "grow the slime" being top 2, but also last. not very popular, and working on multiplayer, a scroller, and whatever i do next lol btw my first game i made was a 3d raycaster tutorial followed by griffpatch, (that's a start I guess) what was i talking about? idk, sorry for the long comment, I get carried away sometimes.
my best is a turn based rpg with leveling system hp mana coins and rng. it consisted of 41 levels i believe but ive forgotten tbh
Cloud variables have been a part of scratch for years. Great way to introduce kids to backend programming
My first coding project for my high school coding class I made a hidden object game based on the ones I loved when I was young. It was pretty basic but I was and still am so proud of it
Griffpatch is a legend in the Scratch community. They're always making the most insane Scratch projects.
The Asher Head Smasher Pack is something that I'm really looking forward to on Scratch; AHS 2 Part 1 is already crazy alone with like over 40 levels and with many head/shoe power ups. Probably the best DKC/Mega Man 7 like game I've seen on this website and that's not even talking about AHS 2 Part 2, Super Asher Head Smasher and Asher Story
Yeah those are good (if hard) games
didn't tried the game yet but i approve of this suggestion
1:52 "Scratch *now* has cloud variables" Scratch: added them in 2013 you're a bit wrong, my freind
THANK YOU SO MUCH THIS WAS EXTREMELY HELPFUL
Imagine if scratch made a 3d engine while using scratch code
That would be great
There is one. Its called shockwave 2. Its a 3d game engine made in scratch.

Hey I can. Made 3d games
I think there is one not by scratch but it's something similar and it's a 3D engine
YES MY PROJECT IS IN A VIDEO!
WOOOO
Great!
Burning Memory on the piano playing in the background of a trip down memory lane was a weird appropriate surprise
I remember fondly griffpatch's multiplayer FPS game and playing that with friends in class back in the day
Scratch has changed a lot since the early days, I'm very impressed with what people have made.
Ayyyyyy Paper Minecraft! That's an OG Game right here!
i love scratch! this is how i got into programming and go to school for cybersecurity
It's amazing how far people will go for a game engine that wasn't made for such big projects.
I remember finding so much crap on scratch, recently went on it and had my mind blown with how much crazy things people had made.
Wow we have a lot of subscriptions in common
It's funny because I actually started using scratch when I was around 8, that was about 2/3 years before we started using it in school. So during the first lesson everyone else learned the basics (how to make the sprites move etc.), while I was programming a game by myself. Edit: I started using scratch for about 5 years ago
There's so many good Portal projects on Scratch- and it's no surprise that the legendary Griffpatch's projects are on this list! It's crazy how many amazing projects have been made using a simple coding system designed for just young users.
It's crazy how many of us had the exact same experiences with Scratch When you were describing first using Scratch I felt like I was hearing about my own life lol
That's really weird, I was just exploring Scratch before you uploaded this.
This happens to me all the time
coincidence? I think not
A huge limit break will occur when any 3d engine is made, very incredible
hello
Honestly though, 3D games made in Scratch never fail to impress me.
*scratch is evolving!* scratch turned into 3d game engine!
Lol hi Kirby
anybody why when i loop a soft, at the end of my loop, my soft starts a half a soft early or late. makes it super frustrating
4:05 You've just hurted whole Terraria community
Honestly, Scratch is super cool. Going back to some of my old 2014 projects, I was surprisingly adept (I made a bad little platformer lol). It's sort of awesome to see all of this because I had that experience.
There is also a game called Super Mario Maker 3. It looks and plays like Mario and it even lets you save level codes you make.
My friend played that game a lot, and is it good

@@LitoMike now oim moital
I remember 9 years ago (i was 7) i got introduced to scratch, yea I hate coding now but I used to make projects daily slowly progressing from fish bouncing off a wall to fully interactive and unique storylines
great video man, thanks for the cool stuff.
I joined scratch 2018 and used to be active on scratch during 2020 - January 2022 but I got bored of it. The coding was limited and you had to work around it in ways I couldn't figure out. Even projects that weren't _that_ big lagged and it took forever to load. The only messages I get are activities that happened in studios. The only projects on there are bad projects, good projects, animations, platformers, and ridiculously great games. I just remember almost everyone following Griffpatch and that he was the most famous OG.
3:57 "UNDERTALE MUSIC JOINS"
i used to use scratch every day but it has now been over 3 years since i last made something, watching this brings back some memories :')
i remember my dad showing me scratch when i was like 9 or 10 years old, really glad i started here tbh
I remember using this like every day years ago, this is also what really got me into coding
Griffpatch is basically the god of scratch lol I also remember playing this guy called ToadfanSchool’s games, they’re really good
I remember making animations on this. love this website
crystal seeker gives me nostalgia for playing low-poly DS games when i was younger and watching my dad play ps2 games
i've been on scratch for 4 years now and that 3d game is amazing for scratch!!
silence furcrіngе
0:00 to 1:30 that's the EXACT reason why I love computers and scratch
The story about scratch you gave is so relatable
This video showed my favorite Scratch project Crystal Seeker 3D!
These projects were blowing my mind there rlly cool I'm also going to try to make a pet simulator maybe later on n happy anniversary scratch 😊
I still find it mind-blowing how people implement 3d rasterization into their games. The farthest I got with 3d is drawing points where each vertex is.
I remember being young and creating an interactive movie about mermaids and you could go along with the characters. It was hard for a beginner but Its so cool!!
It looks so different compared to when I used it in middle school (I am a sophomore in college). I haven't been on it in forever
scratch might be an engine but it is a very barebones one, it only really provides an in built rendering engine and drawing program but not much to help you with making stuff, people say stuff like "unity is bette than scratch, if you use scratch you are a noob" but scratch unoike untiy doesnt have an in built tile placing system, camera system, physics engine, movement plugins, or even a good debug panel so really any project that would be on par of a unity game when ported over to scratch shows that the person has far more technical skill than the unity dev guy

I remember making a tank game survival 2d shooter for fun. Was pretty neat! That, that is insane
scratch was such a big part of my childhood. I got into warrior cats bc of it and a bunch of other stuff, i also got really interested in programming
Obviously it's nothing on any of these, but at primary school, we had to make something on scratch and I loved it, so I spent some time on it at home too, and I ended up making a game which was actually pretty fun, with I think three different levels of difficulty, and I'd love to be able to play it again and add to it but I've forgotten my old scratch login :(
Cloud lists have to be implemented yourself if things haven’t changed, cloud variables could only store numbers so you had to convert the list to a string then a number
This may not sound impressive but I'm working on something called Plate Games. And there's mini games tou can play. It's somewhat 3D there will even be a studio where you can build your own games for plate games. I'm working on my own coding blocks that work decent right now. But it's like mini scratch in there and you can submit them to plate games for every body else to play. And I'm working on a physics engine for it also.
cool
Good luck! Feel free to reply here when ur done :)
Thanks man, it's been going great actually.
bro scratch brings back so many memories 😭 I remember tryna make a fnaf game in scratch and failing miserably
I love scratch, I used it for music when you don’t have any music apps on your school device! And that’s how you got around that problem 😂
7:35 Dude, you're literally playing a full-on LEVEL.
There is a very impressive project called Shockwave 2.
^
I loved scratch got me into simulated gravity it still amazes me to this day making physics based art was a lot of fun for me
great video,keep up the good content
Is no one going to mention "Its just a burning memory" playing in the background at 0:40 ???! edit: playing the undertale music as he falls down a whole in paper minecraft is genius lol
Came looking for a comment that noticed this lol.
Could also be Heartaches
The story about how u started scratch is relatable to a scary level
when i was younger i think scratch literally blew my mind. I made a programming game that took me about 50 hours and felt like a genius
I remember in like 3rd grade we had a project on scratch to make a functional game. They gave us the idea and I have no idea how I did it but I got the most credit possible because it was fun.
wait, you were taught html in 3rd grade? impressive, we didn't know anything about programming until we started using scratch in year 5 (4th grade to you)
When I was in fourth grade I made a somewhat complicated bear hunting game and then my little cousins came over and they deleted my entire scratch account trying to play the game. Anyways now I’m a game designer I owe everything to that little scratch game I made because it completely opened my mind up to the world of coding
yo cousins dumbasses or did it on purpose no way they have a brain
Some of these were amazing.
we had full lessons on scratch and it was awesome
