Loved the game

I really like this app. I always have over the few years I have had it. However, as of recently, it has been on a decline. One of the biggest issues I have is that it now costs 50 seeds to remix projects. This on its own is a bit expensive, seeing as I have only gotten 750 seeds in my hopscotch journey. My biggest project has tens of thousands of views, yet I can only remix 14 times. Furthermore, this fee applies to your own projects. This makes it a massive issue if you are making a big update to a game that requires lots of time. With this plus many other limitations, i don’t see people like 9 year old me being able to reach the point I am now in coding.

Thank you for reading.

2 stars

I love this app. But then I used my keyboard but tapping did nothing. I didn’t have a mouse. I was so angry that I actually SLAMMED the keyboard just to get it to work! It didn’t work so I DELETED the app and re-downloaded it. I signed in to the app and it said “E-mail address is already taken”, even though I signed in MY e-mail address. Luckily, my keyboard works, even after all that slamming!

Thank yo hopscotch for everything -Jjpartist

I had a great time being on this platform but I don’t think I can stay on the platform No more, I have officialy uninstalled and quitted hopscotch for good, the reason why I did that is because of my storage being strict…so for now on you will be seeing me on Reddit, Cocrea, Kinemaster, And Bandlab, So uh yeah thank you to my friends like braynee202 ketchup.exe Sebwolf Dawscraft and everyone else for being with me I wish I stayed here for a little longer but I just couldn’t, and yes I know it is hard to see me go but just remember that you always have to move on with life, And feel free to continue the legacy of the shape object show community for me because If it wasn’t for me then the community and genre of hopscotch object shows would have not even existed if I didn’t exist on hopscotch, anyways I am gonna miss doing thsos and BFSRP on this platform but hey at least these shows both had had a good run, so with that being said, fellow hopscotches I bid you farewell and hopefully someday we will be able to meet again -Jjpartist

Relaxing game

I love this programming app because it's also for kids which I'm almost 6, and I'm about to have another birthday and I'm so I'm going to be six next door like next February so I'm going to be 86 and I am in kindergarten now so this might helping me to know better that I am good and I know my letters me learn a lot and if you want to get the sad kids then to go to applestore.com and googlestore.com and if you then ask your mom or dad you can have it have a good day and and so have fun
