- Turn clockwise/anti-clockwise : Rotates the sprite in the specified direction.

- Go to (x, y): Moves the sprite to specific coordinates.

- Glide to (x, y) : Makes the sprite smoothly glide to a specific position.

- Point in direction : Changes the sprite's direction.

2. Control Blocks :

- When (green flag) clicked : Starts the game when the green flag is clicked.

- Forever : Runs the enclosed code block continuously.

- If ___ then : Runs code if a certain condition is true.

- Wait ___ seconds : Pauses the code for a set number of seconds.

- Repeat (10) : Repeats the enclosed blocks for a set number of times.

- Broadcast (message) : Sends a message to trigger other scripts.

3. Sensing Blocks :

- Touching (mouse-pointer/edge/other sprite)? : Detects when a sprite touches another object.

- Key (space) pressed? : Detects if a certain key is pressed.

- Mouse down? : Detects if the mouse is clicked.

4. Looks Blocks :

- Switch costume to (costume) : Changes the appearance of the sprite.

- Say (Hello!) for (2) seconds : Displays a speech bubble for a certain time.

- Show/Hide : Makes the sprite visible or invisible.


5. Sound Blocks :

- Play sound (pop) : Plays a sound.

- Stop all sounds : Stops any playing sounds.

6. Events Blocks :

- When (space) key pressed : Starts an action when a key is pressed.

- When backdrop switches to (backdrop) : Starts an action when the backdrop changes.

7. Variables and Operators :

- Set (variable) to (0) : Initializes or changes the value of a variable.

- Change (variable) by (1) : Increases or decreases the variable by a set amount.

- Operators (e.g., <, =, and +) : Used for conditions and math operations.

Example: Simple Maze Game

- Use Motion blocks for controlling the sprite's movement with the arrow keys.

- Use Control blocks to detect if the sprite touches the walls or reaches the goal.

- Use Variables to keep track of the player's score or level.
