The document describes how to build the Flappy Bird game in Scratch. It will cover creating the bird sprite and pipe obstacles, making the bird flap with the space bar, cloning and moving the pipes from right to left, scoring points by passing through pipes, displaying "You win" and "Game over" messages, and ending with a completed Flappy Bird game using various Scratch blocks and programming concepts.

1. The Flappy Bird Game
Lesson 7

2. In this course, we will study, learn, and/or creating games in Scratch that makes it interactive so that you will appreciate how
logic and critical thinking works. This is our Scratch Programming Playground.
In today’s lesson, we’ll learn platform games and velocities while also creating the Flappy Bird Game that we will continuously
work on.
The Flappy Bird Game

3. Flappy Bird was a popular mobile game released in 2013. In
the game, you will control the bird that must fly through
pipes. The main objective is to get as many points as you
can without touching the pipes or the edge of the screen.
Game Mechanics
To prepare, you must know how the game looks like before
we get the blocks. You will know the sprites and a backdrop
needed for the game.

4. You’ll be making blocks on how to make the animations for
the parrot when space key is pressed.

The Pipes are your obstacles. You learn cloning and how
move the clones from right to left.

5. You’ll be making blocks on how to display the you win
message when the score is 5 points.
You Win Blocks
You’ll make blocks here that when the game ends, there will
be a game over message.

23. End of Lesson
You just created the Flappy Bird game that uses cloning and clone movements to generate moving pipes Keep up the good work! You’ll
create more games in our course.
This is all for now in our Scratch Programming Playground. See you in our next meeting!
