Hi,
I want to find a smooth way of choosing a character at the beginning of the game. This is my first attempt. Please let me know where I can improve if you have ideas.

This is really nice! I don’t know if this is supposed to be a 1 or 2 player game. I have an idea though. It’s gonna take some work but it won’t include the number stuff. I’ll give you further details later on after I do some tweaks with it.

You can use the block menu extension.

I made a pixel art cursor and made you put a choice in when you press A and overlap one of the fruits. The Fruits in the choseFighter function have a different `kind` so I can delete them instead of the actual fighters.

Hello, I am trying to use you code but I can not figure out how to get the function call clearSprites Choices. Can you please help me? I am a beginner and it only lets me call the red variables on the function

If you use this screenshot from before, you can see the clearSprites function and place it into some kind of block that can repeat itself.
