Episode 55 – Scratch Space Invaders

#CouchPotatoLab

First, you will need to download the Scratch Space Invaders lab manual.

Have you been following along with our Tech Tuesday Scratch Series? In both Soccer Scratch and Ping Pong Duals, we explore the introductory and intermediate skills necessary to create games and animations using Scratch, an online coding software.

This episode will explore a more advanced level of coding by creating a classic Space Invaders! Using what we have learned so far and picking up a few new skills, we will make a fun and challenging game together that you can play with your friends and family.
