About the challenge

This hackathon is open to Fall 2022 theCoderSchool Students as a means to compete and grow their coding abilities in a fun activity with resources and prizes On September 10th!

Get started

Track 1 Challenge: SCRACTH

1. Choose any sprite, have it spin around exactly one time, then say "Hi (your name)!" for 3 seconds.

2. Code a sprite so it moves on the screen using the four arrow keys on the keyboard. Bonus - when you press keys 1-3, it makes the sprite go faster (3) or slower (1).

3. Using pen-down, draw a spiral that starts in the middle of the screen and rotates outwards. Can you do this challenge with 10 lines of code or less? Bonus, using "clear", "pen down", and "pen up", code it so there are no stray lines every time you run it!

1. Door(s) => May use Toolbox (Degree/Radian Rotate about hinge)

2. Trampoline => Vector3.new(0,trampoline.Configuration.BounceSpeed.Value, 100)

3. Color changing floor => BrickColor.random()

4. Falling Parts => Part.Anchored = false

AND one:
