Click green flag to start. Control the rotation speed with the up and down arrows. Cycle through the rainbow with left and right arrows. Press space to change your chicken.
Getting Unstuck 2020: Day 2 Create a project where a user can control a sprite using the keyboard. I was introduced to @shruthi's project at Scratch Day last year, and I think about the meditative rotations a lot. Its the first day back at work after a long weekend, so a small remix AND a calming project seemed right. I wanted to add some key controls without taking away from the smooth calm of the project. I used two variables and a wait blocks to allow small chances with the arrow keys. I did get stuck, when I originally added key controls to the sprite it was not behaving as expected. A script that said "When up arrow pressed change (Rotation variable) by 1, Wait .1" when the program was stopped worked as expected (would increase by 1) but once I hit the green flag, it would change the variable by 30 (the number of clones, but maybe that's just a coincidence?). I moved the key control scripts to the stage, and now always works as expected. Don't know if I found a bug in Scratch or just don't understand how variables function here.
