We will create a game called "Catch Them All" during this event. While creating this game you will learn how to: start a program, move a sprite, create loops, create variables, and create sensing blocks. Mr. Cowen will walk you through how to create this Scratch game. Please visit the starter project here: Catch them All! - Starter Kit.
