Guides & Recipes

This is the cookbook. Every guide here builds one real, working thing in your world. Start at the top, follow the steps, and in a few minutes you'll have something you can show your friends. No prior coding needed.

People build all sorts of things with these same blocks: party games, chill hangout spots, little shops, cinematic scenes that fade and shake the camera. Nothing here is out of reach. Pick a recipe and you're already on your way.

Each recipe shows you the exact blocks to grab and where to snap them. We start gentle and get bolder as you go down the page. You don't have to do them in order, but if you're brand new, the first two are the friendliest place to land.

First time here?

If words like event, block, or behavior are new to you, read What is scripting? and Hello, World first. They take about five minutes and the recipes below will make a lot more sense afterwards.

Beginner: your first builds​

Start here. These use one event and a couple of action blocks. If you can stack two LEGO bricks, you can do these.

A button that does something

Make a clickable object that pops up a message and plays a sound. The classic first interactive build, and the pattern behind almost everything else.

A door that opens

Click a door to swing it open, click again to close it. Your first taste of object states, plus an auto-opening version that triggers when you walk up.

A welcome message

Greet every player by name the moment they walk in. A one-event, one-action win.

Intermediate: making it feel like a game​

Once buttons and doors click, these add memory, timing, and the things that turn a room into an experience.

A scoreboard that counts

Track points with variables and show them live on the HUD. The heart of any game.

A secret password door

Type a magic phrase in chat to unlock a hidden room. Uses "when player says phrase".

A shop

Set up an object players can interact with to buy or claim something. Adds a hint outline so people know it's clickable.

A timed trap zone

Draw an area on the floor that catches anyone who steps in it and zaps them back to spawn. Uses areas, timers, and teleports.

Advanced: full builds​

The big ones. These combine several events, variables, and loops into a complete, playable thing. Take your time and lean on the beginner recipes when a piece feels new.

A round-based minigame

Start a round, count down, score players, and crown a winner. A whole game loop.

An NPC that reacts to you

A character that walks over, talks, and responds. Scripted and AI-powered.

A cinematic moment

Fade to black, shake the camera, drop confetti. Stitch effects into a sequence.

How to read a recipe​

Every guide on this page follows the same shape, so once you've done one you know them all:

  • What you'll build: one line telling you the finished result.
  • Steps: numbered, in order. Most steps show a picture of the exact block to grab.
  • Make it your own: easy tweaks to make the build yours.
  • What's next: where to go from here.
The golden rule, again

Every recipe is just a longer version of one sentence: "When this happens, do that." The "this" is an event block. The "that" is the blocks you stack under it. That's the whole game.

Block snippetEvery recipe on this page is the same shape: one event on top, a few steps stacked underneath.

What's next?​

Start with a button

The gentlest first build. Five minutes, one clickable object.

Core concepts
