Ready to learn how to make a jumping game on Scratch? We&#8217;re building a Rocket Jump game where you&#8217;ll zoom through space going from platform to platform. Before we start building our game, let&#8217;s talk about <a href=\"https:\/\/www.codewizardshq.com\/scratch-coding-classes\/\">Scratch<\/a>. Scratch is a super cool place where you can make your own stories, games, and animations \u2014 like a digital LEGO set that&#8217;s all about your ideas!<\/p>\n\n\n<p style=\"background: none repeat scroll 0 0 #ecf3f6; clear: both; margin-bottom: 18px; overflow: hidden; border: 1px solid #011e41; padding: 16px;\"><span>\ud83d\udccc<\/span><small><strong> [Download] Printable Scratch Coding Tutorials <\/strong> Get 2 printable Scratch tutorials, Rocket Landing and Flying Space Cat, to code your own games step by step. <a href=\"#download\">Download Now<\/a><\/small><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>It&#8217;s like learning to speak the language of computers! And the best part? You don&#8217;t have to type any words or numbers. Instead, you snap together colorful blocks that look a bit like puzzle pieces. Each block is a command that tells your characters and objects what to do.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>In our <a href=\"https:\/\/www.codewizardshq.com\/coding-classes-elementary-school-students\/\">elementary school curriculum<\/a>, students start their coding journey with Scratch. As kids build games and animations with Scratch, they&#8217;re laying the groundwork for computational thinking\u2014a vital skill set for coding with actual code.\u00a0<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Let&#8217;s start our coding journey together!<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"h-complete-this-tutorial-to-create-a-jumping-game-on-scratch\">Complete this tutorial to create a jumping game on Scratch.<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-full is-resized\"><a href=\"https:\/\/www.codewizardshq.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/02\/Completed-Scratch-jumping-game.gif\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"600\" height=\"492\" src=\"https:\/\/www.codewizardshq.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/02\/Completed-Scratch-jumping-game.gif\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-60849\" style=\"width:600px\"\/><\/a><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/scratch.mit.edu\/projects\/962759421\/\">Play and remix the Rocket Jump game now.<\/a><\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"h-what-you-need\"><strong>What you need:<\/strong><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li>Scratch account: Create a <a href=\"https:\/\/scratch.mit.edu\/\">free Scratch account<\/a><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"h-no-coding-experience-is-necessary-for-the-rocket-jump-tutorial-beginner-friendly-for-kids-ages-8-and-up-give-it-a-try\"><strong>No coding experience is necessary for the Rocket Jump tutorial.

The rocket automatically falls due to gravity, but upon touching the platform, it jumps upwards to earn points. Each successful landing on the platform boosts the rocket higher and changes the platform&#8217;s position, making each jump a new challenge. The aim is to keep the rocket aloft as long as possible while racking up jumps for a high score.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"h-step-1-setup-the-scratch-project\"><strong>Step 1: Setup the Scratch project<\/strong><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"h-create-a-new-scratch-project\">Create a New Scratch Project<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li>Open Scratch, and you&#8217;ll see a button that says &#8220;Create&#8221;.
