The project notes provides us a place to give our players some more information about the game, and in our case, we need to provide attribution for our project:
- From the File menu, select the Show project notes option to display the Project Notes dialog box.
- Type your notes about the game, such as instructions, known issues, and in our case we want to state that we modified an existing Scratch project.
- When you've finished entering notes, click OK.
It took only a minute to provide some minimal documentation about our project, but our users will thank us for the information later.
Most importantly, we provided credit for our work. Even though our finished game doesn't look much like the game we started out with, much of the original code is in use.
This game has a bug that makes both balls display at one time, but it happens only every other time the flag is clicked. And it happens only if both balls displayed in the previous game. Can you fix it?
There are a lot of possibilities with our pong game. We could build more levels with additional sprites or with sprites that appear and reappear. By now, you probably have a handful of ways to improve this game. Feel free to change it up.
Of course, the concepts we've used in this chapter can be combined with everything we've learned so far to create an entirely different game of your own design. If you need some additional game ideas, browse the projects in the Games folder that is included with Scratch.
