Please Fix!

Hopscotch is a good app. It’s fun, relatively easy to use, and fun. But what I ran into when coding a quiz game with the screen-in-screen tutorial wasn’t so fun.I started making it, and I did what she did until I saw her renaming the bold text under her other text, but I wasn’t able to. I brushed it off and kept going. Then I realized she had a variable option that I didn’t have, so I ended up doing something else that I knew wouldn’t work. She kept doing variable things that I couldn’t and when I went to test my game, sure enough, it didn’t work.I don’t know whether this is because I’m using an iPad, I don’t have a subscription, or she was using a different version of Hopscotch, but I’m very disappointed because I was excited to make a game like that and I wasn’t able to for a reason I don’t even know. Please fix, because I’m probably going to delete this if you don’t change it.

Hopscotch Rules!

Okay, I just wanted to say, this is an awesome app, I’ve spent several hours just working on my projects on this app. The coding tools are easy to use and it’s really fun seeing what you can create! The optional coding contests for holidays and other times are really fun to participate in. It’s cool how you can play other games by kids who used the same app to learn and grow your coding skills, and the tutorial videos are really useful. I want to congratulate the developers and coders who make awesome projects. The only thing that I can think of is that the custom texts that you can write sometimes come out a little squashed and I know you’re probably working on it. Otherwise (99.9%) the game is awesome!! Thanks for making it, and for reading this review!

A very good app, but I miss the old days

I know this is a great app and I have many old memories, ranging from when I created a melody that sounded like Bank Account before the song came out to making and looking at some of the cool projects from the community. I can remember this app vividly, and confirm it was a great app. However, I wish this app was still free, because it is great and everybody should get a chance to experience it. But I understand that the greatest things come at a price, so I still give it a perfect 5 star rating. I am lucky I had an old account and could get it back for free. My current thoughts on the app are that it is doing well, and has no actual competition, because Scratch has never actually received a mobile app, and all the other coding apps give no actual codes to kids, and just let you make characters “Walk” or “Jump”. Thank you for making the greatest mobile app, maybe of all time!!!

So? Great app

So I decided to go without the premium and it’s still pretty good actually you can do so much codes and stuff it’s awesome even though I don’t have a membership still you can still do lots and lots and lots of stuff you have to download this app it’s the best ever and plus if you sign in it’s absolutely free and I just really really really need you to download it because it’s the best ever I’ve never found any fun apps before I’ve been searching for a long time and well most of them after five seconds you just get off and then you’re done but this app you stay on it for a while and it’ll be so fun it’s not just one of those quick five seconds oh that was boring done. It’s one of those or you could just play forever ♾ And never get bored because they’re so so so so so much you can do even without the membership that cost money and I don’t care if you have a membership or don’t I just want you to download the app because it’s the best

Great app

I’m 17 and I still enjoy making games on this app. I have some experience with actual languages like python and swift, but it is so much easier to pick up my phone and make a game using block coding. I wish there were more features and functionality in the language, but it is still the most advanced block coding language I have ever used. It is pretty obvious that the level of complexity possible on hopscotch is limited based on the bugs and quirkiness that exist even in the best hopscotch games. This, however, seems to be a flaw of block coding languages in general as a trade off for ease of use. Also, I wish that there was a recent tab where you could see levels that were just uploaded without a filter. This would give small creators more exposure and feedback on their games. But overall, it’s really good for a free app.

Great app!!

This app was my first step into the coding world when I was young! I love hopscotch and it truly has encouraged me to learn other coding languages and get involved with programming. I can confidently say that hopscotch not only teaches you about coding, but it teaches kids problem solving, applying math and logic skills, perseverance, patience and so much more. I always loved spending summer days coding games and then being able to publish these games for other kids to play! This is definitely a great app for kids of all ages and all coding skill levels. Wether or not your child wants to be a professional game developer, this app will benefit them in so many ways and teach them so many important skills.As for the people who dislike the subscription, you can still use hopscotch for free! The subscription is optional and gives you access to more features, but there is still a fully functional free version. Personally, I think the subscription was worth it and purchasing one helps support the team behind this amazing app!

IT JUST SCAMMED ME

Before I explain my bad experience let me just say this is a GREAT free app and probably even better with the subscription. I wanted to buy some seeds to add what I thought said UNLIMITED pictures and drawings. I added one to test it. When I tried to add another one it told me I needed to be subscribed to add more but wait it gets worse. I thought that meant I could only have on picture in a project but it actually meant I could only have on picture in all of hopscotch. I tried to delete that picture to add another one but then it brought me to the same but seeds thing I saw before I bought it. I am only writing this review so you don’t make this mistake too. This is a great free app and probably better with the subscription but don’t do what I did or you will probably regret it. Hopscotch please make this more clear or just get rid of buying ONE picture with seeds

Somewhat disappointed...

I’m a bit conflicted about Hopscotch. I do have fond memories spending hours coding and making games, but I don’t really like how it is now. The “Newest” tab isn’t the way it used to be. It only shows select things and that makes me wonder how smaller game makers are supposed to get noticed? I have been featured a few times now, but when I was first starting out it made me really happy to just have one person like it. I really liked Hopscotch, but I just wish that the tabs could go back to the way they used to be. The chance that my project might never be seen doesn’t make me feel motivated enough to start coding. I am also disappointed that you have to sign up for a free trial, or as a student or teacher. This new way of signing up for the app is really confusing, and my friend just decided not to get it. I think that the app should just start off being free, and if the user really wants the premium features they could choose to subscribe.Edit: So I have been on Hopscotch some more and I now really miss old hopscotch. The new tabs are terrible. They make me physically nauseous. Only the projects that already get likes will ever be seen. It seems almost impossible to get featured. Why do I even try.

Great App

This is an amazing app and I am learning a lot from it. If you in anyway hesitant about downloading it.... DON’T BE! If you wanna make games and have fun while coding. This is the app for you!!!!! This is especially great for kids because some games that involve learning bore kids, even if they DO want to learn. But this app lets kids learn so much and still have fun. There is a woman who guides you through each already made game. And then once you have gotten the hang of it you have the choice to go on your own and make your own games from scratch. I love this app, if you are interested tap that install button. There is nothing to lose! If you don’t feel comfortable or don’t feel like this is your vibe, you can always delete the app(which I doubt you would want to do). But overall this is an amazing. I totally recommend it!

This game dying. 😕

I love this game and all but unless you pay, you won’t really learn anything which isn’t bad but if your new player it gets kinda annoying. (I’m not new though) To get likes you either have to be 13+ or super good at art.It may of been fun in the past, but MANY old players have said that this game is dying. Hopscotch has done a horrible job up keeping the game.They don’t seem to even know what’s going on in the game, socialwise I mean, I understand haters because every game has them but now anybody who makes a good drawing and says the goody-2-shoes “Hi, I’m new!” Gets on trending immediately. This game is no longer about “coding”. Unless you want a social media to raid and ruin with drawings DONT PLAY IT.The only reason I’m giving it three stars is because the actual coding part is fine.
