Hi, I know you probably won't see this comment, but you have kept me motivated to create Scratch projects for years now, and I am now on an expert level of scratching. This would not have been possible without you. Thank you.

Wow, that sword animation looks amazing! 😄
-
I had been following game endeavor's series for a long time, and I never would have thought such a complex game could come to scratch!
-
Griffpatch has taught me everything. I started scratch in 2020 and i loved following his tutorials and i made a giant project with the things you taught me and i started unity, i made a cool parkour game! I love watching your tutorials beacuse they're so simple and straightforward!

Awesome! I hope this awesome test will become public sometime soon! I think the enemy's sprite should be the Guy from "Code a platformer game" (from the first episode) tutorial
-
Those sword animations are better than anything i could make by myself….
-
Ay, nice! The sword animations are so smooth! Thanks for a new game idea :)

Wow! I never thought something like this would make it's way into Scratch! But then again, here we are! This was awesome and I loved it!
-
I never realized just how solid and complete Scratch's scripting system is until I found your channel and saw what you can do with it! I've moved on to C++ and Unreal Engine now, but I so wish I could have had these tutorials when I was a regular Scratcher! Keep up the excellent work Griffpatch!!!
-
i never thought about broadcasting a 'go to player' message to other sprites so they follow it until now, you've saved my upcoming game from looking really sketchy :)))
-
This is amazing, haha! Really excited to see how you implement the AI in Scratch.
