Scratch 3.0 Game Development: Build 14 Games (Udemy.com)

Learn Scratch 3.0 game development through a collection of 14 game projects.

This course is designed for adult learners, parents, educators and coding enthusiasts who want to create games and understand how visual programming supports learning. The project lessons use Scratch's block-based environment to make program behavior visible.

What you will learn

Explore sequences, loops, sprite movement, messages, interactions and game rules through projects such as Snake, a racing game, a helicopter game and a block breaker. Additional sections introduce general programming concepts beyond Scratch.

Put the ideas into practice

The new game-testing workshop asks you to improve the restart behavior of one completed project. Test score resets, sprite positions, timers and repeated starts. Use a short checklist to explain a bug and demonstrate that the fix works. Teachers can adapt the activity into a discussion about prediction, debugging and evidence.

Work through the lessons at your own pace. Pause demonstrations to reproduce the examples, then change one input and predict the result before running the code or checking your answer. Keep a short learning journal containing the question, your attempted solution, the result and the reason for any correction. This helps you identify concepts to revisit instead of simply repeating a lesson.

The course is intended as a structured learning resource. Check the curriculum and prerequisites to decide whether its scope fits your goals. Recorded software interfaces, installation steps and third-party services may have changed since filming. Consult current provider documentation when setting up tools, and use a small local practice environment for experiments.

By the end of your study, aim to explain the central ideas in your own words, complete the practice activities and identify where you need further learning. Progress depends on the time you spend applying and reviewing the material. No particular job outcome, examination result or speed of mastery is guaranteed.
