Programming final

Brief description-My game is a game in which the objective is to click the key the cat tells u to before time runs out. I made this work using the "When ___ key pressed..." (I chose keys in chronological order in which they were in available in the drop down list) . From there, I used different keys to be different levels.
"space" = level 1 - click "N" to win
"up arrow" = level 2 - click "K" to win
"down arrow" = level 3- click "F" to win
"right arrow" = level 4- click "X" to win
"left arrow" = level 5 click "Y" to win
"a" = level 6 - click "M" to win
"b" = level 7 - click "Z" to win
"c" = level 8 - click "Q" to win
"d" = level 9 - click "U" to win
"e" = level 10 - click "J" to win
after that u win the game. I made this work by using the, as stated earlier, "When ___ key pressed...", but to go into further detail, when a key is pressed, it would start a timer, not the timer in the corner, but i used the "wait__ secs." I tried to make it so that when u clicked the key to win, it stopped all, so that u could still go to next level but everything would be stopped, timer included, but it didn't work how i thought it would, so i had to improvise. In addition to the cat instructing u through the game, I have 3 other sprites. A stopwatch placed to encourage u, but also provide irony. A strip of Caution tape, not only encouraging u, but also advising u to take heed, for the starting levels are easy, but they get harder. And finally, a computer, placed to discourage u by glorifying herself, or insulting u. Essentially, she represents your opponent.

5. to stop the game
6. creativity, less chid-ish, run a little more smoothly (i certainly did not complete that last task)
Programming blogpost

when you click something, it sends a signal (binary) to the computer, and it reads the code, and from there it deciphers the code and follows the message.
1.when oi click the green flag, the dog teleports to the other side, the cat and monkey slide but the monkey goes a little faster
2.they all use when green flag clicked:, wait 1 sec, and go to X,Y.
3.Cat uses moves N blocks,
Variable: an element, feature, or factor that is liable to vary or change.

when i hear the word if, then it tells me that it can only happen when there is a condition that is met.

I know that we only have, like, a week left of the semester, but till, my old blog was WAY too crowded and unorganized and I'm WAY too lazy to organize it. Besides, smarter, not harder... right?
