I wrote information (Including my opinions) about the new 3.0 studio updates on Scratch.


On the other hand, this studio update is cool. But to those of you who don't know what is new to the studios, I'll put it here.

They removed the infinite number of invites to the studio managers. They added a new limitation of a maximum of 40 studio managers. Honestly, that new limitation just made me fear how Scratch is gonna become when more 3.0 updates will be released to other 2.0 pages. Luckily, managers who are more than 40th managers didn't get removed. But no one was able to invite new managers until the studio reaches less than 40 managers.

They deducted the manager’s permission from editing the studio’s name and description. Only studio creators have permission to do that. So that now basically means that all studios that belong to banned Scratch users will become permanently unchangeable. According to the Scratch Team's forum post, they claimed that the purpose of doing this was to prevent unwanted changes, especially to studios that have so many managers. Which is kind of fine to me, but also pretty scary. So if you created a studio, make sure to come up with a perfect studio name and description if you are most likely at a risk of a ban on Scratch. They also claimed that this change is intended to prevent misuse of the studio description field, such as managers defacing the studio description or using it as a space for chatting.

The extremely poor low-quality studio thumbnails look like garbage compared to the new high-quality 3.0 studio update. I have no idea why the Scratch Team added a file size limit on purpose for no obvious reason. The limitations of the thumbnail were the maximum of 400 KB and less than 500 x 500 pixels. And the Scratch site doesn't look like it has storage limitations since the only thing that has an unlimited number amount of uploading was the Scratch projects.

They added a new 25-limit reply to each comment. This means that if a comment/thread reaches to 25 replies, no one will be able to add any more replies to that comment, but they can always start a new comment and start the limit over. This is actually a good thing because it's a good way to stop unnecessary arguments or spam that happen a lot on the Scratch website.

And that was pretty much it. There are pros and cons of this studio update. There are some limitations that are good and some bad limitations. If you wanna read more about this studio update, go to this link: https://scratch.mit.edu/discuss/topic/526539/

Thanks for the 600 followers, guys.

It took me more than 2 years to gain 100 new followers. That's way too long, lol.

So, apparently, TM-Attraction: TGF is broken on Microsoft Edge. I haven't changed anything in the game, either.

Though, it still works on Opera GX, so just letting people know. Use different browsers if you're playing this.

I really hope this person is aware of what Nintendo will do to anyone who makes fan projects like this.

There's a big reason why I never included any Nintendo-related references or even sounds in any of my games.

The Scratch Team has just recently updated their Terms of Service yesterday, letting you know they now have full permission to use your content to train AI models.

I just recently discovered MistWarp, which is a fork of TurboWarp that really has very good amount of additional options and customization.

UI changes is something I always wanted because I grew tired of Scratch's vanilla UI designs.

Also yeah, new scene.

Ricky Rabbit's Seasonal Flavoritiez! Season 3 Episode 13 (Wet Dry roundabout)

Pretty strange that some portions of the game have no voice acting to some extent.

I'm 90% sure other people skip a lot of dialogues because of how unfathomably HUGE this game is.

Xbox CEO is being replaced by this woman.

Buuuuuttt, I do have some skepticism because she was previously a president of CoreAI of Microsoft with absolutely no gaming background.

And yet, in her note, she said she has no tolerance to AI slop.

Testing out a new move! This move is for all characters

Really glad changes like this are rolling out.
