Shark Fishing Game

Step 2 – Getting the shark moving:

Make sure you've deleted the Cat sprite. Cats don't live underwater!

Start by setting up the basic movement for the Shark sprite.

  1. Make sure you're clicked on the Shark sprite
  2. Start with a Green Flag block (yellow section)
  3. Add a Forever block (orange) – we want the Shark to keep moving throughout the game
  4. Set the Shark to move 4 steps using a blue move 10 steps block and changing the number to 4
  5. Add a blue if on edge, bounce block
  6. Add a blue set rotation style, left-right block

Press the Green Flag at the top to start the game and check this all works. Can you work out what each block does?

Changing the shark costume:

The shark needs to use its jaws...

  1. Under the Move 4 steps block add an orange wait 1 seconds block
  2. Change the 1 seconds to 0.1 seconds
  3. Then add a purple next costume block
  4. Click the green flag to check this works

Not all sprites have multiple costumes. Next costume cycles through the available costumes that a sprite has.
