Name it "4.2 Pong" and share it
How can you use scratch to build and interactive game?
In this project, you will create a game. This game includes interactions between sprites, score, and levels. The game is similar to the classic game of pong, where the goal is to keep the sprite from getting past you.

Create two sprites: a paddle for the user to control and a ball the user will be playing with.
Make your paddle sprite interactive.
Bring your game to life!
Interacts with the walls
These control the ball - if touching the paddle or a wall, it continues moving. If touching red (meaning the ball moved past the paddle) the game ends.

Feeling Stuck? Things to Try:
How do you add difficulty to your game? Creating different levels, using a timer, or keeping score are a few examples of things you could do.
Experiment with changing the look of your game by editing the backdrops!
Explore using different key presses to control your sprites!

Challenge yourself to do more! Add more levels where speed increases. Add stuff to collect or avoid. Give bonus features where the paddle can shoot or temporarily get bigger or be sticky. Add blocks for Breakout like Arkanoid.
