The Cat Says Your Name

🎯 Click the cat and it greets you.

πŸ’‘ The idea behind it

Different events can start different pieces of code.

🧱 Blocks you will need

when this sprite clickedsay Hello! for 2 secsswitch costume to

πŸ”¨ Build it

  1. Take 'when this sprite clicked' β€” not the green flag this time.
  2. Add 'say Hello! for 2 seconds' and change Hello to your own name.
  3. Click the cat. Not the flag. The cat.
  4. Add a second 'say' block underneath with something else, and watch them happen one after the other.

πŸš€ Make it harder

  • Add a sound with the 'start sound Meow' block.
  • Make the cat also grow bigger when clicked, using 'change size by 25'.

🐞 Bugs you will hit

  • It says both sentences at once: you used 'say Hello!' instead of 'say Hello! for 2 seconds'. The first one does not wait.
