Dino Runner by Ashbel remix

Dino Runner – Remixed by Washingtone!

One of our talented students(Ashbel) recently created a fun version of the classic Dino Runner game — and I had the chance to remix it with some new features!

🦖 What’s Dino Runner?
It’s a simple, fast-paced game where a dinosaur dodges obstacles to keep running. The original version was already fun, but I’ve added a few twists to make it even more exciting.

What’s New in the Remixed Version?

Winning Condition:
You now win the game when your score reaches 100. It’s a real challenge — can you do it?

Game Over Condition:
If the ball touches the dinosaur, the game ends instantly. Stay alert!

Dynamic Speed:
As your score increases, the game gets faster. This makes it more intense the longer you play!

Why This Matters

This remix is a great example of how creativity + code can turn a basic game into something more engaging. It’s also a fun way for students to:

  • Learn about game mechanics
  • Practice logic and conditional statements
  • Understand real-world applications of programming

Try It Yourself!

We’re proud of our student’s original version and excited about the remix. More fun and learning projects coming soon!

Hog Hop – A Simple Jumping Game remix

Hog Hop is a fun, beginner-friendly Scratch game that teaches you the basics of game design and character control using simple programming blocks.

In this remix, you play as a cute hog who needs to hop over moving obstacles to avoid crashing. It’s a one-button game: press the spacebar to jump! The longer you play, the faster the obstacles come, making it more challenging and exciting.

This project is a remix of a simple jumping game created to help students:

  • Understand how events like “when space key pressed” work.
  • Use motion and gravity simulation (jump and fall).
  • Detect collisions between sprites (hog and obstacle).
  • Use loops, conditions (if, else), and variables like score or speed.
  • Customize sprites, backgrounds, and sounds.

Learning Objectives:

  • Learn basic Scratch programming skills.
  • Understand how to handle keyboard input and sprite interaction.
  • Modify and remix an existing game to make it your own.
  • Develop creativity by adding your own sounds, characters, or levels.

Try This!

  • Can you add background music?
  • Can you make the hog double jump?
  • What happens if you add more obstacles?
