Press the green flag to start the project. It is not necessary, but encouraged, that you press it twice. After the introduction is over, and you are given choices for your style, click on the one you want. An explanation of what each of them are and how to use them is below. Traditional: This style is very simple. Simply click the category that you want, read the text, then press the back button to go back to the menu. Classical Fun (Sorry for the random name that doesn't make any sense): Use the right and left arrow keys to control the mouse animal, and the mouse pointer (the one in the project, not your actual pointer) will follow the mouse animal. When the pointer is below the category that you want to read, press space. The pointer will fly up, and "click" the category of your choice. Platform: In this one, when prompted, choose a character. Use the arrow keys to navigate. If you touch one of the categories, you will get to see its text. If you get to the pink text that says "more categories", you will go to the next level, where there will be different categories. Hit the left edge to go back a level and see that level's categories. In any of these modes, please do read the information! It may help you on your Scratch journey! ____________________________________________________________ Press m to mute the music.

Thanks to @coke11 for one of the songs. The other song is Lightning Bugs. The pointer when it isn't touching the cats is from psu.edu (The Pennsylvania State University Website). The other costume for the mouse-pointer is from multticlique.com.br. All other media is either by me, from the Scratch Library, or a user that credit is given to below, and all of this was edited with the Scratch Editor. The word art was created on cooltext.com Thanks to @xVanyx for the backgrounds! Thanks to @Nice_Flame and @CrazyNimbus for their amazing feedback, and @funnyplanet for reporting a glitch to me. Those all helped to give New Scratchers the best welcome possible! And, last but not least, thanks to you for reading!
