Scratch assignment

For my Scratch assignment i had decided to make an action/arcade type game which involves a bat sprite like character to fly through a volcano maze to the other side where it escapes through a hole in the volcano which is represented in the way of light. Sounds easy enough however i added in some extra sprites in the form of flying lava rocks which fly around randomly and appear out of nowhere. once touched by these its game over! To add to this you are also surrounded by a wall of lava and like above if you run into the wall its game over.

To give it the effect of flying through the maze i added in a number of cave backgrounds. i think about 7-8. Other backgrounds include a game over 'you lose page' for when you run into the lava/rocks, a gameover 'YOU WON!' page for when you reach the light, and a start up page which has the options of just beginning and instructions!

To control the bat is quite simple. it flys slowly around automatically when the 'start' button is pressed however when the left mouse button is held down the bat flys faster and also changes costume. (to give it the effect of flying.)
