This was my first (and only) successful game I've ever made on Scratch five years ago, featuring an old character some might recognize if you knew me back in 2016, Sticki. In this game, you collect fruits from a magical tree where sometimes anvils and weights fall from the tree for some reason.

Most of the graphics were drawn in Flipnote Studio, hence why they're so low-res. Didn't really have any other animation programs available to me at the time, so I just used whatever I had.

On January 29th, I updated the game with a few new features:

• Most importantly, fixing the Scratch 3.0 bug where Sticki gets stuck going to the left of the screen after missing. (it was a simple fix)
• There's an actual challenge now. Fruits and obstacles fall faster over time, and mangoes will slow them down if you collect them.
• Sticki is a bit smaller, faster, and easier to control. That way it's easier to avoid getting hit by the obstacles.
• Now there's a working high score system after 5 years. Crazy, I know.
• And finally, there's stereo sound too, thanks to the introduction of stereo sound in Scratch 3.0. Now you can hear that sweet royalty-free music as intended, while hearing a stickman tip-toe around your earlobes. Fun.

I could've just left this alone as is, since it's 5 years old and I don't even use these characters anymore, but I like to preserve history and keep this game running, and I still kinda like this game. Hope you enjoy this long overdue update.

ORIGINAL DESCRIPTION:

"One day, Sticki found a tree that gives out many different types of fruit. (Sometimes anvils and weights if you're not careful) So, since he's hungry, and he has no fruits in his home, he went to go get fruit from the strange tree. But he's got to avoid anvils and weights, though, because if he's not careful, he will get pounded to a pulp! Click the help button if you need help!"
