Add another planet sprite with cartoon drawings of all the planets and some dwarf planets in our solar system

Gamer_Logan819

Reason:

Would make it easier for people to make space projects

“Just draw your own”

I can’t draw it in vector, kids won’t be able to either
Yes I’ve tried and my Jupiter looks like a grilled chicken.

The pack includes:

Mercury
Venus
(Earth is excluded because we already have earth sprite)
The moon
Ceres
Mars
Jupiter
Saturn
Uranus
Neptune
Pluto

I’ve kept out the moons of other planets and other, less known dwarf planets like Haumea, Makemake, Eris, and Quaoar to prevent unnecessary complexity for kids.

NOTE THAT PLANETS ARE NOT JUST CIRCLES, THEY ARE VERY COMPLEX, SOME MORE THAN OTHERS (Neptune could be just a blue circle with some cloud-like things on the surface, because Neptune isn’t too detailed in real life, but other planets like Venus and Jupiter and Saturn have extremely complex surfaces and features)

They are literally just Circles-
That's easy-
it will be tire some but at least the earth is done, which is the hardest in my opinion-

If I asked an 8 year old to draw Saturn, they wouldn’t do a very good job would they? Which is why they should be added

Then at least they have tried-
since it's two long rectangles one on the back and one on the front with a yellow circle in the middle

Except they can because unlike you they're at least willing to try.

Just because you can't do something doesn't mean everyone can't. Don't base your logic on that, it will almost always be flawed if you do.

Nah I’ve tried and it always looks ugly, mainly because I’m on mobile but still

Like I said a child wouldn’t be able to get a good level of detail and this is why all the other sprites are added. I don’t see how it would hurt to add them.

Look at the above. Are they good? Not really. But at least they tried, and thanks to that the creators made a good project.
It doesn't matter if it looks ugly. If you really need a high-quality earth, backpack one and credit the creator. It's the thought that counts, the message you're trying to send, not how detailed or accurate it is.

It will kinda also be unnecessary just saying, 8-year olds know shapes so….

And here is Saturn, pulled up for no reason

Why would it hurt to add planet sprites??? If they’re as simple as all of you say, the ST can do it very fast without any trouble, right? It would not hurt at all to make planet sprites

We Are not even staying it will hurt us, it's just that it's way too easy to the point where

is better, Jupiter, Saturn, even pluto-
More complexity does shine the light but really why would we need it?
Symbols are harder to draw like Argentina

Unless it has more space exploration-
Also

Saturn Alr exists? Nani?

Attempt at making Jupiter from view of Ganymede (on mobile)

In a space game, I don’t want a bunch of moons to look like they have a giant piece of grilled chicken floating behind them. Neither will others.

Is just a planet they made up really fast

Gamer_Logan819

I don’t know if I mentioned this but all of the planets will be costumes in one sprite which can be grabbed from premade sprite library

Both features' flexibility & usefulness for stories, animations and games outweigh their complexity to a Scratch novice, and there are plenty of simple techniques you can pick up from other people's projects even if you're 8 years old. This is not the case for the vast majority of the features suggested in this forum today, and that's why they haven't been added to Scratch.

Funny enough there's alot of space costumes when I typed in space

Also, can't you just put it in the backpack?

Found someone who wants more planets in you were late :skull:

Some kid will put it in their backpack, use it in their project because they didn’t know they had to credit them, get their project taken down, and get discouraged from making it again.
