Catch the Good Grade Game

https://scratch.mit.edu/projects/926484355

Catch the Good Grade is a chase game to claim the good grades (checks) while dodging the X (fail) using the arrow keys. Each time you touch the X, the letter grade will go down and you will lose a point. But don’t worry, once you get an F, the grade will reset.. Each time you touch the check mark, the score will increase by 1, and once you reach 5 points, or -5 (from failing grades), the game will be over. The goal is to obtain 5 checks while also attempting to keep your grade high. Enjoy!

I definitely had difficulties with making sure the shapes connected and replicating identical conditions on both sides of his face.

Attached is my AI-generated Halloween-themed poster inviting people to come trick or treat. I found many difficulties while utilizing AI because the algorithm favored exemplifying certain input characteristics while misinterpreting other aspects. My approach to recreating my poster was by writing out every element, asking that it be placed behind a black background to help the overall poster blend together.
