Advanced Scratch Sushi Cards

We’ve got another content release for you! This time it’s more Scratch content, specifically Advanced Scratch Sushi Cards that will help Ninjas build a platformer-style video game. I’m pre-supplying some of the code to get things going faster, but the fun parts are all in the Ninjas’ hands:

• Adding more levels
• Making new powerups
• Creating enemies
• Putting interactivity into levels

The cards also end with a series of suggested extra challenges for the Ninjas to try.

Accompanying this release is a matching Advanced Scratch Badge which can be awarded to Ninjas who demonstrate knowledge (which they’ll get by finishing the Sushi Cards!) of all of these criteria: 

• Cloning sprites
• Using variables inside cloned sprites
• Creating and using “More” blocks
• Reusing code in several places with “More” blocks
• Messages to trigger behaviours across sprites
• Using variables to configure your program

As usual, have fun and let me know what you think in the forums!
