Maze Game

task

You are going to create your own Maze Game. Think of a theme that will be interesting. The example below is for a Dog finding its way home.

You will need to either draw your own Maze or do a Google search for an image of a "scratch maze" and download it

Make sure your walls look neat and are thick enough. The code you need to control your player is shown below.

     
 

You will need to:

1) Open a new Scratch project and save it as Surname_Firstname_Maze

2) Watch the YouTube Videos below. They use a slightly earlier version of Scratch, but the code works the same.

3) Use the checklist at the bottom of this page to make sure you have completed everything.
