Scratch II - Custom Animations

Next week we are going to start making our own games. So, over the weekend be thinking about what you want to put in it. Some basic rules are:

1. No blood and gore.
2. If you are "killing" things they should not be human.

Think about the games that you really like, and why you like them. What will make your game different?
