    I've always been confused by scratch's featured projects, but in this video I explain what I learned about the featured list.

    I think its because scratch team also focus on the community aspect and not just the coding part so whatever unique art thing might make it up there. another problem i have is the top loved section or loved by scratchers im following because a good amount of spots are taken by generic platformers instead of games that deserve more attention

    Scratcher: creates perfect gameplay and shares project
    Scratch team: nuh uh
    Other Scratcher: Creates bad gameplay and puts little good art
    Scratch team: PUT IT IN FEATURED PROJECT!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!11

    scratch is for beginner programmers! we cant just show them the capabilites of scratch!

      mod block is just a maths thing. it wouldnt make sense not to have the mod block since it isnt a complicated part of scratch.

      mod block is just simple math but I see if you can't find a use for it (but its very useful for technical scratch trust)

      @@vii-ka yep but I can see why especially if you are newer when I first did scratch on the local version several years ago I had no idea what it was and trying random numbers just made me more confused (not realizing it was literally just remainder from divison)

      yeah but the thing is i almost figured it out several years ago by experimentation because i tried numbers from 0 to 2 but if i went to higher numbers i probably wouldve figured it out but i didnt go above 2 for some reason@@channelname7105
      also even though i didnt know what it did it didnt bother me because i just never used it, similar to the sin and cos and tan and so many other thigns that i didnt know how they worked many years ago

    I made a FNAF game with like 4000 blocks of code, I spent like 4 - 5 months on it, and that didn't get featured, the Scratch team just choose games with no effort put into them, just why? Like forget Generic Platformers whoever makes them are just desperate to get on the front page...

    As someone who's been featured before, I 100% agree. My game that got featured, was made in less then a day. I have spent weeks sometimes working on games, and yet, the game that I put almost NO effort into, got featured... I was happy and disappointed at the same time... 😑

    So your saying i have a higher chance of getting featured? I make simple games for the reason of what you said at 1:52, so new people can learn off of my code. I make more animations than games... But i think thats still a thing, you can get ideas of other peoples animations... And then someone gets an idea from you... And it keeps on going forever, thats actually how most animations are made! Even outside of scratch

    I like this video. It helped me actually realize the featured projects are simple, and helped me also realize that they’re featured instead of complex ones because most scratchers are newbie programmers and need simple projects that they can understand. I do feel like complex projects should be featured still, like Scratch Team can make a page/pages that feature complex projects. The benefit of that is it will help all kinds of scratchers see the potential of scratch and how far you can push your projects.
