Easily and quickly enhance your Scratch Games by replacing the player's boring Score variable reporter with a bespoke costume based Number counter.
Let's face it, the Scratch Variable reporters look old and boring - So liven things up by learning to code a number counter using clones and any font costume you can find or draw yourself! Then drop it in to any project!
My tutorials are for all budding game & software developers using Code Blocks. Scratch On guys!
