Final Scratch Project

http://scratch.mit.edu/projects/23684887/#player

 This project was very frustrating. In my game, the astronaut is lost in space and he needs to find his spaceship. However, the aliens keep on getting in the way of the spaceship. Guide the astronaut with your mouse to destroy the aliens. If you see the spaceship appear, guide the astronaut with your mouse to spaceship in order to go to the next level. There are a total of three levels. As the levels progress, more aliens appear. The first level would always work but then sometimes it would skip over the second level and go straight to the third level. Or it would go from the first level to the second level. Then sometimes the game would work perfectly! But then the next time I tried it, something would go wrong! In order to get to the third level, you have to hold the astronaut over the spaceship for a few seconds during the second level. I could not figure out why this was or how to change it, so that the background changed immediatly after the astronaut touched the spaceship

I started the process by looking at the different backgrounds. I noticed that there was a category of backgrounds called "space." That category inspired my game idea. As I progressed with the game, I had to do a lot of trial and error. I had to constantly click the green flag to see if my game worked and if it did not work, I looked at what part of the game went wrong. I then looked at the script to see if I could debug it.
