SCROLLING
HOW CAN YOU USE SCRATCH TO BUILD 
AN INTERACTIVE GAME?
In this project, you will create a game. This 
game includes interactions between sprites, 
score, and levels. The game is similar to 
Flappy Bird, where the goal is to keep an 
object from falling to the ground or touching 
certain objects.
