“Wow, I never knew I could make my own game. I’m completely addicted. It’s so much more fun to make games than play them.” — Ethan, 12
“My daughter is obsessed with Hopscotch. Instead of playing games, she is building and publishing her own. It’s brilliant.” — Paul, dad
“I have used this app at my programming school for two years now…Stylistically it beats out everything else, and makes [competitors] look like a beta version from 1998...I recommend any educator to give it a try in your class since it is free.” — S., educator

What's New in Version 3.16.0
This update includes a bunch of bug fixes!
=====
We’re supercharging your projects with the power of Self! Now you can write code that always remembers what object it’s on. Abilities and clones just got super-powered! Start a new project to see it for yourself.
Other new features:
- Values are now called variables and we’ve made them much easier to use.
- Speaking of superpowers, we’ve been hard at work on making Hopscotch faster and smoother. Now you can use over 4,000 clones - take that, spiral draw!
- If you’ve seen the new emoji in iOS 10.2, you know that they’re pretty sweet. You can use them in your text objects too!

Awesome
This is my only coding game and u can actually make a game and publish it. I think there needs to be a section where u can create what ever you want in the and not certain game modes. There is one thing they need to update why do u need to pay to get the other game modes
Great app
Nothing else like this on the iPhone. You can actually make playable games. Although there is a problem where you can't see the full app until after you do the first tutorial.
Extremely frustrating tutorials
The tutorials are extremely frustrating to my 8 year old. They reference command buttons that don't show up or work the same way as the version we are using. If you're going to charge for the tutorials PLEASE make sure they can be followed and are in line with the current version of the app. This experience has made my child want to run away from coding rather than toward it...
